Joystick publishing rate #80

Open ghost opened 2 years ago

Is there any way to set the publishing frequency? We need the joysticks to publish with pretty much exactly 10Hz. Even with a hardcoded 10Hz we receive fluctuating 10-15Hz which leads to security stops on our robot. Do you think this is depending on the device we use or faulty in the app?

Currently you can't set the publishing frequency for widgets like the joystick. I will mark this as a feature request. What you can do, is to republish your topic with throttle and limit the frequency. Or just write an additional node, which subscribes your topic and publishes at a fixed frequency.

I hope, this will help you a bit!
