Access /mbzirc/target/stream/status topic #208

Closed fbenti closed 2 years ago

fbenti commented 2 years ago

In the Competition APIs section, it is mentioned that " During final evaluation, each robot will only be able to access stream topics in its namespace." This means that we cannot access the /mbzirc/target/stream/status topic from any drone to receive feedback and use them to plan the operations? Or is it the only topic to which we can always subscribe to?

Or is that topic intended to be accessible only by drones that are within communication range with the base station?

the robots will only be able to access its own namespaced stream topics:

/<robot_name>/mbzirc/target/stream/start
/<robot_name>/mbzirc/target/stream/report

All robots should be able to subscribe to /mbzirc/target/stream/status without being affected by comms range
