Maybe a problem existed in euroc_simulator/mav_gazebo_plugins/srcgazebo_octomap_plugin.cpp about rotors_simulator HOT 5 CLOSED

@burrimi can you have a look at this? @HitszChen this plugin created some problems with specific geometries, why we are currently using another method

from rotors_simulator.

@markusachtelik I am trying to read through the code. Could you tell me what the another method is?

from rotors_simulator.

maybe we should also have a look at this:
https://bitbucket.org/osrf/gazebo/issue/858/rayshape-getintersection-behaves

to my understanding this would mean that we could set far_away = 999 or something around this value in https://github.com/ethz-asl/euroc_simulator/blob/master/mav_gazebo_plugins/src/gazebo_octomap_plugin.cpp#L77

from rotors_simulator.

@HitszChen I think you are right about the entity_name_backwards, I will look into it now.

from rotors_simulator.

At least the entity_name_backwards got fixed in dc90fec. Please make a new issue, if there are more problems with this.
