Sorting out a few problems.

I have been asked to sort out a few problems with the Factory Simulation. We have been using it within courses but I have been asked to put the documentation on-line and tidy up the exercises so that we don't need a tutor standing over the students while they use it. The most significant technical problem we need to tackle is to make sure that if SL, the uni server or the networks go down it will be possible to bring the simulation back near the point it crashed. You would think we would have thought about this at the start!

Anyway, I have been given a six weeks to get it sorted so that a more robust and idiot-proofed version will be available for the new semester....
