# - DESCRIPTION ------------------------
|
|
doc: >
|
|
The simulation has some advanced configuration options that are contained in this class and can be managed using carla.World and its methods. These allow the user to choose between client-server synchrony/asynchrony, activation of "no rendering mode" and either if the simulation should run with a fixed or variable time-step. Check [this](adv_synchrony_timestep.md) out if you want to learn about it.

|
- class_name: AttachmentType
|
|
# - DESCRIPTION ------------------------
|
|
doc: >
|
|
Class that defines attachment options between an actor and its parent. When spawning actors, these can be attached to another actor so their position changes accordingly. This is specially useful for cameras and sensors. [Here](ref_code_recipes.md#attach-sensors-recipe) is a brief recipe in which we can see how sensors can be attached to a car when spawned. Note that the attachment type is declared as an enum within the class.
|
|
|
|
# - PROPERTIES -------------------------
|
|
instance_variables:
|
|
- var_name: Rigid
|
|
doc: >
|
|
With this fixed attatchment the object follow its parent position strictly.
|
|
- var_name: SpringArm
|
|

|
|
- class_name: World
|
|
# - DESCRIPTION ------------------------
|
|
doc: >
|
|
World objects are created by the client to have a place for the simulation to happen. The world contains the map we can see, meaning the asset, not the navigation map. Navigation maps are part of the carla.Map class. It also manages the weather and actors present in it. There can only be one world per simulation, but it can be changed anytime.
|
|
# - PROPERTIES -------------------------
|
|
instance_variables:
|
|
- var_name: id
|
|
type: int
|
|
doc: >
|
|
The ID of the episode associated with this world. Episodes are different sessions of a simulation. These change everytime a world is disabled or reloaded. Keeping track is useful to avoid possible issues.

This can only be used with walkers. It retrieves a random location to be used as a destination using the **<font color="#7fb800">go_to_location()</font>** method in carla.WalkerAIController. This location will be part of a sidewalk. Roads, crosswalks and grass zones are excluded. The method does not take into consideration locations of existing actors so if a collision happens when trying to spawn an actor, it will return an error. Take a look at [`spawn_npc.py`](https://github.com/carla-simulator/carla/blob/e73ad54d182e743b50690ca00f1709b08b16528c/PythonAPI/examples/spawn_npc.py#L179) for an example.
