I'm trying to screenshot my gazebo simulation every so many time steps. Also, I'm trying to get an orthographic 2D view of the simulation when I screenshot. However, I want to achieve all of this programmatically using python. Thanks!

As far as I know, there isn't a python interface which can access these features.

Do you have any suggestions for what I can do if I'm trying to get an overview snapshot of the bots? Maybe add a camera and subscribe to the frames?

If you're willing to use javascript instead of python, you could try gazebojs: http://gazebosim.org/tutorials?tut=gazebojs_camera_topics&cat=gazebojs
