Changelog for package ridgeback_control

0.3.5 (2024-07-22)

• Reduce turbo gains Reduce gains to be the same as non-turbo levels. This way holding either button will allow the robot to drive, but without the safety concerns about a fully-loaded payload moving at full speed.
• Add teleop turbo support We define a turbo button, but don't actually set the gains; this means pressing B5 uses the default 0.0 multiplier, causing the robot to stop. This MR adds 1.1x multipliers to the linear speed (maximum advertised speed is 1.1m/s) but keeps the same angular maximum. Tested on an integration project prior to shipping (and then reverted). Integration reports it worked as expected.
