[robocup-nao] Simulator survey

[Alexander Buckley]

I'd like to add to this conversation: I have been using both simulators.
 I used the webots for 2008 robocup to develop a vision application so i
cant comment on the robot kinematic model.
 I am currently using MSRS to develop motions which it is obviously suited
for. Floor friction is obviously missing in but i have come to find a use
for that. Gravity appears to be well simulated also the robots masses
(dispersion in the limbs).

My real query is:  I have heared that code can be run in MSRS. I do not see
any menu item that relates to code in the obvious way that webots has a code
development environment. It appears to me a development studio for motion
scripts and nothing else. Am i missing something? Is there a plugin I don't
have?
