I'm having some difficulty working with / understanding models in Gazebo. I'm trying to create a multi-robot environment without an unnecessary amount of duplicate XML.
I'm currently using the basic pioneer2dx and sicklms200 model files that game with Gazebo. At the moment, I'm trying to create two such robots with lasers and these are the issues I'm running into: 1) The interface name specification (laser_iface_0) for the laser seems to be nested rather deeply in the sicklms200 model, and I'm not sure how to override it without duplicating all the other configuration information surrounding it. 2) I was able to create a second pioneer2dx robot by re-including the model, but noticed that when I try to attach a laser to it, using the chassis_body name of the pioneer2dx model, the second laser is attached to the first robot, presumably due to the ambiguity of the "chassis_body" name. Are there any good ways to make the models more re-usable, or should I just plan on having duplicate configuration information? Please let me know if posting my world / model files would help (they are essentially still just "out-of-the-box" though).
