Simulation

• The SimulatedTailCone can be launched in its own process, called "simtail".
• The tailcone application takes the option "-sim", which tells the tailcone to forward commands to the simulator after actuating the tailcone device.

• Recall that a "processes" configuration file is now specified to supervisor at startup; supervisor will first launch the vehicleCore process, then any processes specified in the process configuration file. To run a simulation using the simulated tailcone, your processes file should look like this:
•  # Run simulator application  simulator   # Launch simulated tailcone service  simtail
•  To run simulation with the real tailcone in the loop, your process file should look like this:
•  

  # Run simulator application  simulator   # Run the real tailcone service; be sure to specify '-sim' since we are also  # running the simulator  tailcone -sim -dev /dev/ttySX1
