Use command line options when launching build from source

[EricLangezaal]

For my application I need to continuously change Carla's textures, which is why I am using a build from source. I am noticing that my simulator slows down heavily over time, and eventually crashes with errors that seem related to a lack of GPU/CPU power.

I am exporting lots of camera data that needs to be realistic, meaning I cannot use no rendering mode or low quality mode. For this reason, I want to try and use CARLA's offscreen mode. However, since I am using make launch to start my simulator, I cannot use its command line option.

Using make package and then launching the .sh file separately does not work either, since I need each new launch to incorporate the new textures and packaging is significantly slower.

So how do I enable this offscreen mode rendering option in combination with make launch?

You could use make package command to package your version of carla. Then you could run the carla server like the release version in the Dist folder.

As indicated in the post, I need to continuously modify the source code between each run, and due to how much longer packaging takes it is not an option.

I found out that you can specify the command line arguments used when the make launch command is executed. This is done by modifying the command in the "Launch Editor" section of the file Util/BuildTools/BuildCarlaUE4.sh
