Use package:// to reference meshes #168

Closed roni-kreinin closed 2 years ago

roni-kreinin commented 2 years ago

Description

Switching to package:// allows the description to be used by a remote computer as the mesh paths become relative rather than absolute.

Changes:

Set GAZEBO_MODEL_URI to empty string to prevent model downloads.
Added /usr/share/gazebo-11/models/ to GAZEBO_MODEL_PATH to use local ground plane and sun models.
Using package:// instead of file:// for mesh paths.
