Hi there,

I try to draw several roads (in a loop) in a world plugin by publishing road messages.
When I initialize a new publisher for each road, everything is visualized fine. But if I use the same publisher for all roads, Gazebo doesn't draw all roads (in fact only 1). Adding a short "sleep" after every published road message helps, but not all roads get visualized.

Anyone an idea why this is hapenning and how I can avoid initializing a new publisher for every road?

Many thanks in advance and best regards.

It occurs to me using version 6.5.1

Hi there,

When I set up a camera, the preview within gazebo is fine, but in the published image the visuals of the "gazebo-road" are gone.

Has someone an idea why this happens? And how can i achieve to get all my visuals shown up in the published image?

Many thanks in advance and best regards.

Is this also possible with a GUIPlugin?

Hi there,

when I try to create polylines, I get following error: GTS library not found.

But gts library is installed (see picture).

But if I run "ldd" on gazebo, the libgts is not listed in the result list.

Many thanks in advance and best regards.

Hi there,

is it possible to change the behaviour of an actor at runtime? For example changing the trajectory or adding new waypoints to it. Maybe via a topic or a plugin?

Many thanks in advance and best regards.

Hi all,

I need to draw lines/paths with a certain width and a custom texture. And it would be nice to have friction on this path. Now I ask myself what's the best/easiest way to do this. I tried using polylines where I could easily add friction to their surface, but textures didn't work there. In other questions I read about using a VisualPlugin. But then I had to consider a different approach to add friction. Is there a documentation on VisualPlugins?

I would be greatful, if somebody can recommend me a "best practice" for this task.

Best regards
