- Change velocity and position tolerances for stopping the simulator to be 0.5m/sec and 0.5m (an increase)
- Pass student map to update_robot.m.
- Change dimensions of one block in environment1.txt so that robot cannot leave the environment.
- Change z coordinate of start/stop to 1.5m (up 0.5m from previous value of 1.0m).
