@HPCLOL posted a use case of gazebo in ros-controls/ros2_controllers#875:
If the simulation is started with an inactive controller, the robot should move with gravity as if the joints were passive.
As discussed with #250 this is currently not possible. This PR adds an parameter to enable this behavior (again).
GazeboSystem
this parameter parsed from the gazebo plugin without changing API. Therefore, I used a ROS parameter of the gazebo_ros2_control node to pass the information.The result looks like this if no controller was spawned:
passive_rrbot.mp4
