1.1.3 (2021-06-11)

• Merge branch 'melodic-2.8' into noetic
• Subscribe to move_base_simple/goal in relative namespace
• Use absolute topics for /tf, /tf_static, /map etc.
• Rename tf frame and topic 'odom_comb' -> 'odom' This is how they are called on the real MiR since MiR software 2.0.
• Fix handling of tf_static topic This does two things:
  1. Make the tf_static topic latched.
  2. Cache all transforms, publish as one message.
• Increase queue_size for publishers + subscribers to 10 One case where this was a problem was the tf_static topic: Since multiple messages are being published at once, the subscriber often missed one. The tf_static topic will be fixed anyway in the next commit, but let's increase the queue_size anyway to avoid such bugs in the future.
• Update topic list to 2.8.3.1
• Reformat python code using black
• Remove outdated topics These topics don't exist on MiR software 2.8.3 any more (most of them have been removed a long time ago). Fixes #37.
• Remove MirStatus This message was removed in MiR software 2.0 (Renamed to RobotStatus).
• Use same MirMoveBase params as real MiR (2.8.3) This shouldn't make a difference (it used to work before). Just removing one more potential source of error.
• Fix: Converts move_base_simple/goal into a move_base action. (#62) At least MIR software version 2.8 does not react properly to move_base_simple/goal messages. This implements a workaround. Closes #60.
• Fix: Adds subscription to "tf_static". (#58) Some transformations are published on this topic and are needed to obtain a full tf tree. E.g. "base_footprint" to "base_link"
• Minor: Removes /particlecloud from the list of published topics. (#57)
• Fix: Add missing dict_filter keyword argument for cmd_vel msgs (#56)
• Remove relative_move_action (MiR => 2.4.0) This action was merged into the generic MirMoveBaseAction in MiR software 2.4.0.
• Adjust to changed MirMoveBase action (MiR >= 2.4.0) See #45.
• Adjust cmd_vel topic to TwistStamped (MiR >= 2.7) See #45.

1.1.2 (2021-05-12)

1.1.1 (2021-02-11)

• Fix subscribing twice to same topic (TF etc) There was a flaw in the subscriber logic that caused the mir_bridge to subscribe multiple times to the same topic from the MiR, especially for latched topics. This can be seen by repeated lines in the output: starting to stream messages on topic 'tf' starting to stream messages on topic 'tf' starting to stream messages on topic 'tf' Probably related to #64.

• Contributors: Martin Günther

1.0.3 (2019-03-04)

• Make disable_map work with MiR software 2.0 See #5.
• mir_driver: Optionally disable the map topic + TF frame (#6) This is useful when running one's own SLAM / localization nodes. Fixes #5.
• Split scan_rep117 topic into two separate topics This fixes the problem that the back laser scanner was ignored in the navigation costmap in Gazebo (probably because in Gazebo, both laser scanners have the exact same timestamp).
