You can only set speed limits, [Graph Strategies - Programming Multiple Robots with ROS 2](https://osrf.github.io/ros2multirobotbook/integration_nav-maps-strategies.html?highlight=speed#speed-limits)

See [https://github.com/open-rmf/rmf/discussions/601](https://github.com/open-rmf/rmf/discussions/601) regarding setting or reading the specific speed that the simulated slotcar robots are running.
