Sensor only giving a value of `inf` #13

Closed eliasfrimanns closed 2 months ago

eliasfrimanns commented 3 months ago

Hi, I was trying the different test worlds to check if I got everything to work when I noticed that the sensor (sensor_0) was only returning the value inf. This value was invariant of position, orientation and number of sources (even none), and whether I'm checking through Gazebo or ROS. I'm running on Ubuntu 18.04, ROS Melodic, Gazebo 9, and the melodic-radmsg branch.

EDIT: Nothing is returned in Gazebo

This is what is returned with the example given in the README after running

Fixed by switching to the master branch. It works with melodic.
