Help with BlueROV 2 Simulator

I expect the market for ROV simulation training software is quite large, and relatively untapped at the moment. I’m definitely a proponent of the idea, and have previously worked with @williangalvani to brainstorm a set of potential mission ideas, but our development resources are stretched thin as-is, and developing a training simulator is unfortunately not a high priority for Blue Robotics right now.

Fair enough. In the absence of pre-made simulation scenarios and a robust and physically-accurate simulator it’s hard to beat in-person practice, which can understandably be logistically challenging / expensive to do a lot of.

There are options to remotely control pre-deployed vehicles, which may be of interest, but that’s also restricted to using their interface (including in the simulation software interface they provide for training).

Side note...

I wonder whether @adam-cropp has considered switching that interface to a restricted version of Cockpit, although that may not be viable until it has keyboard support and includes the option to lock down the interface, unless a running Cockpit interface gets streamed to the end user without being able to receive direct inputs or something…

We do have a Discord, but it’s primarily intended for developer discussions, rather than standard usage support (which is generally intended to be covered by our documentation, forums, and technical support form).
