Thanks Chris. Sorry for the less information from my side. We are not running AMCL and gmaaping together. We are providing static map to the navigation stack first and then while navigating we are running AMCL. As you suggested we are already following the tutorial. Regarding estimated position, yes, we are not giving it purposely in AMCL since we want robot to spread large number of particles and robot should be driven at some distance to collect the observation and fix the position. Yes, you are right turning is due to clearing the space and trying to regenerate plan but in our case, it is failed to complete the target even it is very close to the robot. It is drawing a path properly(as seen in rviz.) but not able walk on the path. Any suggestion for scenario 2? or what improvement is expected in scenario 1?
