Parameter Files
The parameter values that define the environment, filament properties, tuning coefficients, etc can be loaded from or saved to text files. Here I briefly describe how to access and edit parameter files I've provided.
Some parameter files are included in this code package. These represent tunings I have found for a particular filament type, time-step, and viscosity. Any parameter file may be loaded / saved via the "Program -> Save Parameter File" and "Program -> Load Parameter File" menu items, respectively. For these included files it is easier, however, to use the built in Parameter Loader ("Info -> Parameter Loader"), since that loader knows the URL of the local and online parameter file repository. Each parameter file is briefly described in those index files.
You can use either the Parameter Loader or the Control Panel to edit the current state of the simulation
