Revision history [back]

I think that if you're using Kinetic, you need to be explicit with the setup pf the plugins and I don't see that in the code you posted.

plugins:
  - {name: static_map, type: "costmap_2d::StaticLayer"}
  - {name: obstacles, type: "costmap_2d::VoxelLayer"}
  - {name: inflation_layer, type: "costmap_2d::InflationLayer"}

obstacles:
  observation_sources: laser_scan_sensor bumper_sensor

  laser_scan_sensor: {sensor_frame: laser, data_type: LaserScan, topic: /scan, marking: true, clearing: true}
  bumper_sensor: {sensor_frame: base_link, data_type: PointCloud2, topic: /pointcloud, marking: true, clearing: false}

inflation_layer:
  enabled:              true
  cost_scaling_factor:  10.0  # exponential rate at which the obstacle cost drops off (default: 10)
  inflation_radius:     0.3  # max. distance from an obstacle at which costs are incurred for planning paths.

Try setting up like this and see if it corrects.
