AFAIK, battery characteristics are declared per Ignition launch file so this shouldn’t be the case for the competition. This is still worth an update to 60m though for the small environment (or effectively infinite since this is a test environment).

OK, yes in this environment even 5 minutes is too much (but AWS runs always 60 minutes, maybe it could be shorter for these tests?). If it is expected and in final “Tunnel Circuit” environment it will be 60 minutes, no problem then. :slight_smile:
BTW recharging is possible via return to the base station? (for drones)
Original comment by Arthur Schang (Bitbucket: Arthur Schang).
I don’t know if recharging is possible in the virtual challenge. This is something we should look into though. I imagine that would just be a reset of battery capacity upon returning to staging area and reaching 0 velocity.
AWS run duration is while the environment is active or until a very conservative real-time limit is met so they may be able to change the duration for some testing environments and then update that on AWS for easier testing. Whenever the OSRF folks read this, I’m sure they’ll have an answer regarding the practice environment duration.

Never mind, I failed to noticed it at the top sentences:
tested it locally X2 config 3, Simple Tunnel 02
Original comment by Martin Dlouhy (Bitbucket: robotikacz).
I do not see this change in release notes … just noticed the same in practice tunnel 03:
[Wrn] [LinearBatteryPlugin.cc:439] Model X0F40F100F400L out of battery.
[Dbg] [LinearBatteryPlugin.cc:333] [Battery Plugin] Battery drain: 21 minutes passed.
(I still use the old simulator docker - too dangerous to change it now, unless there is some serious reason)
Original report (archived issue) by Martin Dlouhy (Bitbucket: robotikacz).
Is it expected that X2 has battery limit 20 minutes? Is it tunnel dependent? I tested it locally X2 config 3, Simple Tunnel 02 and rather by accident I noticed:
Is it expected? I wanted to reopen #122 (Extension to X1 & X2 battery life) but somehow I do not how :disappointed:
