## Installation
To install OpenTCS you have to go to [their website](http://www.opentcs.org/en/download.html) and download the latest version. After downloading extract the archive into a directory to your preference. In almost each folder you will find some files called *.sh. You can use `ls -lAh` to check whether the files are executable, if they are not executable use `chmod +x <filename>.sh` to make it executable.

Go into the OpenTCS PlantOverview folder (inside the OpenTCS bin folder) and run `startPlantOverview.sh`. After Opening the PlantOverview go to File - Load Model. Navigate to the folder where the PlantOverview is installed and enter the data folder. In here you will find a demo model.
Make sure that the mode is set to "Modelling Mode" at File - Mode. Now you'll be able to design your warehouse.
