Launch ICUAS 2023 Simulation Arena

[SamH122]

We have been trying to launch the simulation arena for ICUAS 2023 challenge but it has been unsuccessful. We have completed all the required docker installations. We were successful in launching the quadcopter in the empty world in Gazebo after the local installation and catkin build but we were not able to launch the world for the challenge in Gazebo. Please guide us through steps on how to run the simulation arena for ICUAS 2023 challenge.

Hi,

can you post the output of the Gazebo tmux pane?

[SamH122]

Thank you for the reply. We were running it properly. The drone is spawned in an empty world. It basically doesn't go to the gazebo section due to some error in the Roscore section. This is the output of the Tmux pane:

That looks ok, does the next window (gazebo) show any errors (I think you can switch to the next window with shift + right_arrow). And can you also show the Gazebo scene?

This is the gazebo window:

And this is the Gazebo scene (The quad and the tiles are spawned):

Great, so the inspection world spawner dies because another node of the same name is launched. This commit should fix this. Can you pull the latest change and try launching again?

Thank you. It worked
