Travis,
If you run the normal navigation stack at the same time as assisted teleop,
you're correct in that each will maintain its own occupancy grid. At some
point, I want to re-implement the navigation stack using nodelets which
would allow for things like the costmap to have a ROS interface that could
be used by multiple nodes/nodelets, but that's for the future.
As far as your remapping call goes, you're almost there, but you have to be
explicit about using the private namespace. This is a bit unintuitive
because using the "param" tag within a "node" tag automatically puts things
in the private namespace, but the "remap" tag does not. I guess this is so
that parameter remappings and topic remappings are consistent, but its
admittedly kind of a pain. So, if you change your remaps to look like the
ones I've pasted below, I think things should work:
<remap from="~/costmap" to="move_base_node/local_costmap" />
<remap from="~/planner" to="move_base_node/TrajectoryPlannerROS" />
Hope this helps,
Eitan
