The simulator itself should contain all the necessary environment information regarding obstacles, way points, bot position, etc. All of this information is loaded at the start of the simulation.

In addition, there needs to be a map that is internal to the bot that contains all the things the bot knows about: way points, obstacles seen so far, gps location. Way points are known to the bot at the start, and obstacles added to the map as the bot detects them.

The bot will need some way of polling the world simulator to see if detects any new objects based upon its position and sensor range. Only information that is added to the internal bot map should be used for path finding.
