Description
Currently, when using the Planning_simulator, /vehicle/status/control_mode is not published until the vehicle's position is provided. However, in actual vehicle usage, /vehicle/status/control_mode is published immediately after the vehicle_interface and the vehicle start up (ex. pacmod_interface) . To align the Planning_simulator with this actual behavior, I have modified it to publish /vehicle/status/control_mode immediately after the node starts.
