//This class provides a text interface for testing the BHAVE messages API
//via a VRForces remote controller.
//This interface currently supports the following actions:
//
//1. Create a M1A2 tank at a predefined location 
//2. Task the tank to wander (BHAVE wander task)
//3. Request to the backend the list of available LUA scripts
//4. quit the application
