OpenSCENARIO Catalog support

[anja-sheppard]

Has there been any work to support catalogs in OpenSCENARIO? They would be very useful when making a bunch of similar scenarios.

A use case would be when creating a new entity one could simply having a catalog reference rather than re-defining the same vehicle in multiple files.

I don't see any other requests for it, but I wanted to check before beginning to implement a solution.

Hi,
we did not yet start working on this. If you have anything working we would be very happy if you could share it with us and the community.

@fabianoboril Just a quick question: what is the purpose of lines 258-260 of open_scenario.py shown here

parallel_actions.add_child(
    oneshot_behavior(variable_name=get_xml_path(self.config.story, child),
                    behaviour=maneuver_behavior))

Due to the nature of catalogs, the get_xml_path() is proving to be difficult. What is that path used for?
