Revision history [back]

My problem was with parameter tuning. I made the following changes:

Decreased inflation_dist and min_obstacle_dist
Increased max_vel_theta and acc_lim_theta (I should have guessed that low values for these parameters are limiting the steering angle of the car)

Now there is no back and forth.
