Hello everyone! Another week with more progress to discuss. This past Thursday, we met with our CAE liaison and other related sponsor staff. There was plenty to talk about:

1. We met and learned about each other.
2. Asked our prepared questions relating to our project.
3. Received details and developed ideas relating to hardware specs, simulation requirements, scenario expectations, analysis/report information for our project.
4. Most importantly, we took screenshots of our Teams meeting.

With the conclusion of our meeting and a refined understanding of our project expectations, we have started planning our next steps for research, design, and prototyping. Prior to our meeting, we already started to learn more about ECS’s in general. We also started brainstorming ideas and looking for resources for our simulation software design. Our next 2 weeks will involve looking deeply into each game engine, one after another, and experimenting with their respective tools to see how well they can accommodate our specific expectations.
