Path_Orientation issue

Hello,
One simple question. In the Path Planing tutorial I am bit confused with the Plan_Orientation module.
Is this generated after we fill the required data or is static? If it is not, how do i calculate that and what actually means? I read the documentation but could not answer my question.
Thank you in advance.
Dario

Hello,
Thank you for the fast replies.
However, I have the problem of getting the orientation of the robot. I follow the path_planning tutorial and when i get the variable the robot orientation as the angle from the statistics it retures value of 1,2 and maybe 3? Is this correct? Should not i get the value of the angle which is far greater?
Thank you again.
Dario

Dario,
Are you not looking at the PLAN_ORIENTATION variable? Or are you using the statistics module to get orientation? Perhaps you can include your robofile and sample maze image such that we can better understand what you are doing. Something doesn't sound right....

Hello,
I managed to fix the issue. However, I was wondering how does the Plan_orientation variable work? What assumptions and to what accordingly the variable is produced? Because, it does mater where the starting and the finishing point are located.
Thank you again.

Dario,
The Path_Orientation variable is defined to the that orientation that you should align the robot to in order to take the next step in the path to the destination as defined by the path planning module. As the path to the destination will take many turns that may change during the course of the journey we only provide the one immediate direction that the robot should align to. Once this is done the robot should move forward until the orientation once again tells it to turn. Thus by following this variable the robot should end up at the correct destination.
Based on that question I'm not sure you understand what the path_planning module actually does. Perhaps you could include your robofile in future such that we may better understand where you are getting confused.
STeven.
