Description

Hi.

I want to use different wp files for each drone in the swarm and I've changed the SYSID_THISMAV but whenever I load a new wp file, the old one gets overwritten and the previous drone will follow the new wp file. I was told that this was a bug, because MAVProxy does not appear to check which system ID to send the waypoints to. I was told that it would be worth reporting on here. This is the link to where I originally posted my question.

Research direction

Reproduce the MAVProxy SITL swarm scenario described here with distinct SYSID_THISMAV values and separate waypoint files. Start by tracing waypoint loading and sending during the reproduction; done means loading one file no longer overwrites or redirects another drone's waypoint mission.
