About Extensibility #2

Hi aidyk: This is an awesome project for students learning path planning algorithm. I am curious what do you mean the extensibility of this project which made you conclude to quit and turn to ompl(the lastest word in 'Readme')? Because I think this is one of the visualization tool to use ompl. Maybe it is hard to add newest ompl to v-rep, or you need to write path algorithm here youself again?

Thank you for your interest on this project! Since V-REP officially support OMPL as a path/motion planning functionality, I found that my project is too naive and lack of extensibility. For instance, in order to support various dimension of motion planning problem, everything should be hard coded, but OMPL contains an implementation on 'state space' associated with other components e.g., sampler, distance function. I've already implemented couple of things in OMPL and maybe I'll keep being with OMPL :)
