Use cd to enter the scripts/ directory of this package and run:

bash simulate.sh

Select the desired simulation by typing the matching number and pressing enter

Shuting down a simulation

Use Ctrl+C on the terminal running the simulation and enter:

bash killgazebo.sh

How to use (dev level)

To add a new simulation, edit the simulate.sh file in the scripts/ directory. Copy and paste the indicated lines and change the parameters according to your necessity. Don't forget to edit the INSERT_NUMBER_HERE part and echo the new option indicating its number with the old ones.
