mode_list:
normal:
launch:
- pkg: your_robot_package
file: /launch/your_robot_start.launch
args:
- name: mode
value: single_camera
- name: is_device
value: false
- pkg: your_navigation_package
file: /launch/your_navigation_start.launch
args:
- name: mode
value: single_camera
- name: explore
value: false
keeping_node_patterns:
- \/?explore.*
make_map:
launch:
- pkg: your_robot_package
file: /launch/your_robot_start.launch
args:

<include file="$(find your_robot_package)/launch/your_robot_start.launch">
<arg name="mode" value="single_camera"/>
<arg name="is_device" value="false"/>
</include>
<include file="$(find your_navigation_package)/launch/your_navigation_start.launch">
<arg name="mode" value="single_camera"/>
<arg name="explore" value="false"/>
</include>
make_map
<include file="$(find your_robot_package)/launch/your_robot_start.launch">
<arg name="mode" value="single_camera"/>
<arg name="is_device" value="false"/>
</include>
<include file="$(find your_navigation_package)/launch/your_navigation_start.launch">

will kill all existing nodes and launch the file below:
<include file="$(find your_robot_package)/launch/your_robot_start.launch">
<arg name="mode" value="single_camera"/>
<arg name="is_device" value="false"/>
</include>
<include file="$(find your_navigation_package)/launch/your_navigation_start.launch">
<arg name="mode" value="single_camera"/>
<arg name="explore" value="true"/>
</include>
launch file sample
