Planet switching support in presentations #256

Open rphipps opened 8 years ago

rphipps commented 8 years ago

Overview: In Roscoe currently there is no support for planet switching between presentations. For example if there is a presentation on the Moon and if GE is currently on Earth it will run the presentation on Earth. We've worked around this on the default touchscreen by always switching to Earth when the presentation tab is clicked. This works for clients without presentations on other planets. There was also a work around for another client in which a rosnode listened for presentations being published by the director and matched on the slug to determine which planet to switch to whenever the presentation was clicked.

Requirements:

Development notes Optional - list of places to look into and general guidelines (patterns to use, instructions and helpers)

Testing scenario Optional

If this task is testable - include list of commands and expected outputs.

Based on the sort of thing NASM does, it seems it would be best to have this operate on a scene level.
