Description

The Placement node provides all data needed to set up the object in the simulator.

As of V1.3.3, multiple placements of the same SimObject is possible in a short-hand notation: Just create multiple <Placement/> nodes. SODE will then change internally the SimObject’s name attribute, i.e. SODE will append #1, #2, etc to the name.
