- increment
- documented
- incremental(basic testing passed)

Remove Ros dependency (regarding time)
fixed typoes
fixed wrong comments
Exposed seed value to user
Updated purpose of SDF params in the header file
lines are now shorted than 80 chars
added comments around explaining the calculations done
- made wind speed randomized
- merging default to update the feature branch
- Remove more trailing whitespace
Redundant codepath in usv_gazwebo_dynamics_plugin removed. Euler values now derived identically between gazebo 7 and 9.
- Fix trailing whitespace
- Fix line breaks
- Alter patch to use .Ign method to convert between gazebo::math and Ignition::math types
- Add support for Kinetic/Gazebo-7
The ignition types are mostly kept, with code transforming from the methods deprecated in gazebo-8
- Changing license text
- Adding two packages from asv_wave_sim as a part of VRC
- Issue #23: Coordinate the physics and visualization of the wave field
1. Use the asv_wave_sim_gazebo_plugins package for wave field visualisation and depth calculation.
2. Update the buoyancy and dynamics plugins for buoyancy calculations.
3. Update sdf and xacro for models that require buoyancy.
4. Replace the ocean model with ocean_waves in the sandisland world.

1.0.0 (2019-02-28)
- Porting to Gazebo 9
- Rename vmrc to vrx.
- More progress.
- Changed from buoyancy calculation method
- Fixing error where buoyancy force could be applied in the negative direction (downward)
- Add dependency on usv_msgs by usv_gazebo_pinger_plugin. This forces the message to be built before the plugin is compiled.
- Set the sensor WAM-V as the default model
- Fix the doxygen generation
- Update variable names and comments to be compliant with the Gazebo style guide.
- Add the pinger plugin to the wamv_gazebo package.
