These notes are intended as a reminder of how I think things are working on my local machine.
Currently, I am launching the simulator from a local catkin system setup. Followed installation and setup instructions: https://github.com/osrf/subt/wiki/Catkin%20System%20Setup
# Source SubT setup file
source ~/subt_ws/install/setup.bash
ign launch -v 4 tunnel_circuit_practice.ign worldName:=tunnel_circuit_practice_01 robotName1:=X1 robotConfig1:=X1_SENSOR_CONFIG_1
The myfirst package is installed locally in a catkin workspace named subt_practice.
cd ~/subt_practice
# think this is necessary to access the subt shared object libraries
source ~/subt_ws/install/setup.bash
# source the local installation
source ./install/setup.bash
# launch the find entrance program
roslaunch myfirst find_entrance.launch robotName:=X1
