This allows us to print an error message instead of a weird Java failure
further down the road.
Better yet would be if this would take down everything, so a user does
not have to scroll up to read the message.
On Ubuntu we often saw the error
Assistive technology not found AWTError when starting jMAVSim.
This should be fixed by appending this cli argument to java.
As suggested in https://github.com/PX4/containers/issues/206
In order to be consistent between Gazebo and jMAVSim we should be using
the env variable PX4_SIM_SPEED_FACTOR in the same way. This enables
vscode to set the speed using the env variable.
This updates the jMAVSim submodule which includes a fix for HITL.
In order to fix HITL, a CLI argument `-lockstep` was required to enable
lockstep. This has now been added to the command in jmavsim_run.sh.
This checks if we are on macOS and if we have Java 8 installed. If yes,
it falls back to Java 8 by setting JAVA_HOME.
This avoids https://github.com/PX4/jMAVSim/issues/81
It is useful to run jmavsim separately, for example when debugging mainapp
separately, or running some other external tool on mainapp (like heap
analysis)
