Beginner Question - Remote Api Controller

Post by giordano »

Hi,

I'm creating a controller for the e-puck robot using the remote API.

On the simulator, I put an e-puck on the scene and changed the child script according to the RemoteApiController example.

The client side only have to connect on the server and wait until the simulation close.

When I start the simulation, the robot moves on the floor without commands of the client side. I would like to know what I need to do on the server side to make the robot only moves when it receives a command to it.

Thank you,

Giordano.

Hi!

Your question is very general. It is hard to say what is going on. Maybe your child script is changing the velocity of the wheel joints? Maybe your wheel joint's velocity is already set by default?

Hi Eric!

I think that the problem was that wheel joint velocity was already set.
Now I opened the joint dynamic properties and setted the Target Velocity to 0. The robot is idle now.

Thank you!

Giordano.
