How to attach to px4 shell when using multi-vehicle simulation

#1

I am trying to run multi-vehicle SITL RTPS simulation using the gazebo_sitl_multiple_run.sh like this:

./Tools/gazebo_sitl_multiple_run.sh -m iris -t px4_sitl_rtps -n 2

How can I attach the terminal to each px4 process in order to access px4 shell to execute some commands such as enabling micrortps_client?

Looks like you can take advantage of the iris_rtps model and have it start automatically

I will be providing at some point this week my launch script for ROS2 for those that prefer something more “ROS integrated”, it spawns the models and opens an xterm window for each model. Furthermore, it can be set to automatically start the micrortps_client for any spawned model you choose while still allowing the other models to be non-RTPS if desired.

Have you provided that ros2 launch script by now?

I am trying something similar while also including lidar and would love to take a look at your approach!

The closest thing i found was:

which i could not get running without errors.
