 Here, when modifying ``env.decimation`` or ``env.sim.dt``, the user needs to give the updated ``env.sim.render_interval``,
 ``env.scene.height_scanner.update_period``, and ``env.scene.contact_forces.update_period`` as input as well.

+Group Override
+--------------
+Group override lets you swap out entire groups of environment- or agent-level settings in one go.
+Instead of overriding individual fields, you select a named preset defined in your code.

+
+Group Registration
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+When you register your Gym environment, provide the ``configurable_entry_point`` pointing to your ``@configclass``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    gym.register(
+        id="Isaac-Reach-Franka-v0",
+        entry_point="isaaclab.envs:ManagerBasedRLEnv",
+        disable_env_checker=True,
+        kwargs={
+            # … other cfg entry points …
+            "configurable_entry_point": f"{agents.__name__}.configurables:AgentConfigurables"
+        },
+    )
+
+
+Override Syntax
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Select one preset per group via Hydra-style CLI flags. For example::
+
+    python scripts/reinforcement_learning/rsl_rl/train.py \
+      --task=Isaac-Reach-Franka-v0 \
+      --headless \
+      env.events=rand_joint_pos_friction_amarture \
+      env.observations=state_obs_no_noise  \
+      env.actions.arm_action=osc_arm_action    \
+      agent.policy=large_network
+
+Under the hood, Hydra will replace:
+
+- ``env.events``             with ``EnvConfigurables.env["rand_joint_pos_friction_amarture"]``
+- ``env.observations``       with ``EnvConfigurables.env["state_obs_no_noise"]``
+- ``env.actions.arm_action`` with ``EnvConfigurables.env["actions.arm_action"]["osc_arm_action"]``
+- ``agent.policy``           with ``AgentConfigurables.agent["large_network"]``
+
+allowing you to switch qualitative modes of your experiments with a single flag.
