Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently users have to explicitly type python3 GroundSystem.py to start the ground system. (And if they type bash GroundSystem.py or python GroundSystem.py [and the default Python is 2] they get errors.) At minimum the GroundSystem.py file should be made executable so users can use ./GroundSystem.py and not worry about what is the correct scripting language. This will also likely help with GUI file managers, enabling starting from the GUI without having to go to a terminal.

It might be better to have a short start or go or even just rename it to GroundSystem (no extension) or some other obvious command that starts the ground system. Given the folder's full of .py files, having a file that's distinct will be helpful to new users. Would like CCB's consideration on what to name such a command.
