Save & Display [sad]

Today, I’ve started both the saving/loading of schemas and displaying schemas from the library.

The display seems to work pretty well, but is limited to just showing the arm positions in state 1 and state 2. It was pretty difficult calculating where the arm should be using just the angles, which is something I should include in my report [diagrams etc].

Rather than exporting the schema library as a text file, I attempted to use the Serializable interface to export the objects themselves. Both exporting and importing seemed to work, but it causes null pointer exceptions when run. I think there must be something not being correctly Serialized, but further debugging is required.

NOTE: PROBLEM: serializable, or just plain text files [editable]
