Version:
	Revision History:
		Version 0.261 : 28/09/06 - Cleanup
		Version 0.26  : 04/12/04 - New propeller model, new hydrofoil model, liquid drag class, documentation
		Version 0.25  : 14/09/04 - Impulse actuator
		Version 0.24  : 05/09/04 - Added PID, documentation, cleaned a bit, basic spring class.
		Version 0.23  : 01/09/04 - Added generic DC motor - removed dynamechs motor, documentation
		Version 0.22  : 11/08/04 - Added DC motor from dynamechs
		Version 0.21  : 08/08/04 - Bugfix
		Version 0.2   : 25/07/04 - Propellor integrated, need to make palforceactuaor private, but maintain public pfo
		Version 0.1   : 06/07/04 - Creation
	
Todo:
  • BUG: palForceActuator does NOT work
  • abstract some how : body actuators VS link actuators?
  • confirm force actuator : do i need to translate the realtive position variable?
  • correct actuator type setting
  • clean laplace - possibly remove
  • fix propelor model to accept parameters
