amcl crashing when recovery alpha values are set

edit

Hi,

I am trying to set up AMCL for localization on my simulation and it works fine as long as recovery_alpha_fast and recovery_alpha_slow are both set to 0.0. When I set recovery_alpha_fast to 0.1 and recovery_alpha_slow to 0.001, AMCL does not appear to work at all. /amcl_pose is in the topic list but all that is published to it is the initial pose, and I am simply not getting anything else out of it. Nothing is published to /particle cloud as well. When I move the robot, I get an error message (There are no error messages unless I try to move the robot).

[ERROR] [amcl-3]: process has died [pid 20497, exit code -11, cmd '/opt/ros/humble/lib/nav2_amcl/amcl --ros-args -r __node:=amcl --params-file /home/nipuni/Projects/test_robot/install/test_robot/share/test_robot/config/amcl_params.yaml']. The contents of the amcl_params.yaml file is given below:

I would appreciate any help with this.

Thanks!
