When compiling with catkin, your source files should be in ~/catkin ws/src/ and you run catkin make in the ~/catkin ws/ folder.
Startup scripts
...
~/start_scripts/sequences.py
~/start_scripts/start.py
...
~/start_scripts/arnl_start.sh
...
~/start_scripts/controller_start.sh
...
~/start_scripts/roscore_start.sh
These files are used for starting the communication with the Startup Box and starting the correct sequence of modules based on the user input from the Startup Box.
...
The shell scripts have to be used to initiate the correct setup for ROS and catkin upon opening a new terminal to run the modules. If the correct source commands are not present in the shell scripts, the modules will fail to start:
source /opt/ros/kinetic.setup
source ̃/catkin_ws/devel/setup.bash
If you follow the ROS tutorial these commands will have been added to run automat-ically automatically upon opening a terminal, but for some reason it is not the case when a terminal is opened from a Python script. Hence these shell scripts are necessary.
