Hello Nitin and Hai,

The periodic snapshotter was failing due to a change in cturtle in how nodes
decide whether to use simulation time or not. (
http://www.ros.org/wiki/cturtle#ROS_1.2). In order for the periodic
snapshotter to work, you have to enable simulation time before starting the
snapshotter:

*> rosparam set /use_sim_time "True"*

Thank you for pointing out this problem. I've updated the tutorial
accordingly.

Vijay
