In rviz i can click '2d pose estimate' and it'll say: or something. But it won't actually move the estimates that amcl is providing.

Additionally, i don't see a published service or subscribed topic for this in amcl beyond the 'initial' pose. Do i need to change the initial pose and somehow restart amcl?

Also, additionally, should I be able to *see* the current pose? rviz suppose 'pose' but not 'PoseWithCovarianceStamped' that amcl outputs.

What is your "fixed frame" set to when you do the 2D pose estimate? What topic is set for the "initialpose" topic in rviz?

Fixed frame is set to /odom currently.

The cloud of particles does not seem to change location when i do a 2D pose estimate in rviz. I have the fixed frame on /map.

Ugh. Seems that my network connection was suspect (I guess the master node couldn't ping the rviz node). -_- your answer was right. thanks!

Thank you! Running rviz on the same machine as the master fixed it for me!
