Description
Added an offset input to the VehiclePIDController, allowing the controlled vehicles to move displaced from the lane center. The LocalPlanner has been extended to accomodate these changes.
It is important to note that due to the current state of the controllers, they are subject to break if the offset is high enough to make the vehicle drive through an adjacent lane. This is mainly due to the use of functions such as get_waypoint() or is_at_traffic_light().
Where has this been tested?
Possible Drawbacks
There should be no possible drawbacks as this is purely an extension.
