Computing two simulation steps takes some real time.

Enabling the ### Using synchronous mode -The synchronous mode becomes specially relevant with slow client applications, and when synchrony between different elements, such as sensors, is needed. If the client is too slow and the server does not wait, there will be an overflow of information. The client will not be able to mange everything, and it will be lost or mixed.

The following fragment of code extends the previous one. The client creates a camera sensor, stores the image data of the current step in a queue, and ticks the server after retrieving it from the queue. A more complex example regarding several sensors can be found [here][syncmodelink]. @@ -157,7 +157,7 @@ The configuration of time-step and synchrony, leads for different settings. Here
