Hexapod_Simulation_Unity/  Unity project that runs that DLL on the 3D model
LEGACY/                    older material kept for reference
scripts/                   PlatformIO helper (per-environment sketch folder)

Build (PlatformIO)

pio run                    # build both
pio run -e robot -t upload
pio run -e remote -t upload
pio device monitor -e robot

.\sim\build.ps1            # build hexapod_sim.dll + run the headless firmware checks

Then open Hexapod_Simulation_Unity and press Play. See sim/README.md.
