Description of the bug

We got a project that include the management feature of RMF (mainly about the collision avoidance and traffic control) with multiple Robots. We got our Robots connect to a server PC (which run the RMF's core) through Wifi, and the connection is establish by the free fleet (our Robots use navigation stack of ROS 2 to move) with a server and multiple client. The project is running stably with 1 to 3 robots but when the number of robot is > 4 just one of them is working fine, the other can not update their position to RMF's server (the frequency of the update position action is 5Hz) and that where everything get messy. I have tried many way to config the CycloneDDS but it was inefficient

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. Launch RMF's core
  2. Launch free fleet's server on server PC
  3. Launch each Robot navigation and free fleet's client
  4. The problem start when the number of robot is higher than 4

Hi, I was wondering if you found any solutions for this issue. I'm encountering the same problem when running my own simulation with more than four robots. The server doesn't discover all the clients. Thanks!
