  3. Moving obstacle has minimum radiu 0.6
  4. Need to modify the following code in CrowdCmd.cpp(line 30-32)

const string TEMP_FILE_NAME = "YOUR PATH TO PROJECT LOCATION/CrowdsParameters/tempScene.txt";

const string ORIGINAL_FILE_NAME = "YOUR PATH TO PROJECT LOCATION/CrowdsParameters/original_file.txt";

MString parameterFile = "YOUR PATH TO PROJECT LOCATION/settings.ini";
