OpenCDA
OpenCDA is a SIMULATION tool integrated with a prototype cooperative driving automation (CDA; see SAE J3216) pipeline as well as regular automated driving components (e.g., perception, localization, planning, control). The tool integrates automated driving simulation (CARLA), traffic simulation (SUMO), and Co-simulation (CARLA + SUMO).
OpenCDA is all in Python. The purpose is to enable researchers to fast-prototype, simulate, and test CDA algorithms and functions. By applying our simulation tool, users can conveniently conduct both task-specific evaluation (e.g. object detection accuracy) and pipeline-level assessment (e.g. traffic safety) on their customized algorithms.
In collaboration with U.S.DOT CDA Research and the FHWA CARMA Program, OpenCDA, as an open-source project, makes a unique contribution from the perspective of initial-stage development and testing using simulation. OpenCDA is designed and built to support initial algorithmic testing for CDA Features. Through collaboration with CARMA Collaborative, this tool provides a unique capability to the CDA research community and will interface with the CARMA XiL tools being developed by U.S.DOT to support more advanced simulation testing of CDA Features.
The key features of OpenCDA are:
- Integration: OpenCDA utilizes CARLA and SUMO separately, as well as integrates them together for realistic scene rendering, vehicle modeling, and traffic simulation.
- Full-stack prototype CDA Platform in Simulation: OpenCDA provides a simple prototype automated driving and cooperative driving platform, all in Python, that contains perception, localization, planning, control, and V2X communication modules.
- Modularity: OpenCDA is highly modularized, enabling users to conveniently replace any default algorithms or protocols with their own customzied design.
- Benchmark: OpenCDA offers benchmark testing scenarios, benchmark baseline maps, state-of-the-art benchmark algorithms for ADS and Cooperative ADS functions, and benchmark evaluation metrics.
- Connectivity and Cooperation: OpenCDA supports various levels and categories of cooperation between CAVs in simulation. This differentiates OpenCDA from other single vehicle simulation tools.
Users could refer to OpenCDA documentation for more details.

Users Guide
Note: We continuously improve the performance of OpenCDA. Currently, it is mainly tested in our customized maps and Carla town06 map; therefore, we DO NOT guarantee the same level of robustness in other maps.

I'm sure I followed the steps in the official documentation, what should I do to fix this error?Thanks！
By the way, does opencda support running on a remote server?
