time limits for trials

[Former user]

I see that time_limit: 500 is set in qual2a.yaml.

Is it specified in advance what the time limit will be for the finals? Will this be specified, or will it be published on a topic? Or will this be left unknowable?

Please see https://bitbucket.org/osrf/ariac/wiki/2018/qualifiers/qual2_scenarios: 500 sim seconds will be used for qual2b as well.

This information is not broadcast by the ARIAC server. For the Finals, as with the qualifiers, it will be set as a fixed value for all trials, which we will let teams know beforehand.
