Parameters

Most aspects of Oakfoam can be set at runtime using the parameters interface. To get a list of all the parameters and their current values, send the param command without any arguments. To set a parameter, send the command param <name> <value>. Parameters can easily be set using the GoGui Analyze Command interface. Refer to the documentation in "Parameters.h" for the most up-to-date documentation on all the parameters.
