Revision history [back]

If exporting the robot variable isn't happening in your launch files, you should probably do that first. Have you tried setting the rosparameter "use_sim_time" to true? It looks like a synchronization issue which I usually see when either two computers communicating by ROS aren't synchronized or I've forgotten to use the simulated time. Good luck.
