PhysicalController	copy(PhysicalHumanoid ph) Creates a copy of the controller
String[]	getDesiredJointIDs() Gets the ids of joints the controller would like to steer if available
String	getParameterValue(String name) Get the parameter value of parameter name, return null if not found
String[]	getRequiredJointIDs() Gets the ids of controlled joints
void	reset() Clears out all previous time dependen variables
void	setParameterValue(String name, float value)
void	setParameterValue(String name, String value)
void	setPhysicalHumanoid(PhysicalHumanoid ph) Links the controller to a new set of physical joints
void	update(double timeDiff) Updates the controller
