42 // 23-06-14 BWendt
43 // Fixed issue with the automatic placement of the meat not working. Solution
44 // was to use the correct units "inch" in the y-direction as well.
45 // Coincidentally eliminated the need to using the 'std::abs()" from the
46 // "cmath" library.
47 // Implemented method "PlaceFuelPlates"
