Springies simulates some parts of the Soda Constructor (sodaplay.com). It takes an input of .xsp files and animates them.

Overview
----------------------------------------
The simulation begins by asking for the input of a list of masses and springs followed the input of global environment 
variables (the format of the input can be found in the section titled "Input Format" below. These inputs are then processed 
by AssemblyFactory and ForceFactory to be applied to the Model.

Model is the main compoenent of the simulation, containing the list of assemblies to be simulated and listening for key 
and mouse inputs for user interaction. As model updates, it will call each individual assembly to update which will then 
call the individual masses and springs to update, leading to changes based on mass and spring interaction as well as global 
force interactions. All of these elements will then be drawn on the Canvas using Graphics2D.

The Model classes uses Listener classes to receive key input. Each listener class is mapped to a KeyEvent integer and a
an action such as a force toggle or creation of a new assembly such that every update will check for key inputs and call
listeners as appropriate.

If every type of global force is not implemented, a default force will be put in for them.
