Hi @pawanw17 ,
I would like to work on the issue, can i go ahead with it?

[pawanw17]

Sure please

hey @pawanw17 ,
In the repo there are different worlds files and different launch files too, so am I supposed to convert them to launch.py format too so it will be compatible with ROS2 also. Also, many more pkgs have the same problem, so could you please clarify it?

Hi @Tanishq30052002, In this repo mainly we have two branches which are actively developed,
noetic-devel and humble-devel, inside these you can find .world files which gazebo uses, This issue is only targetting the world files and not the launch files.

Hi @pawanw17
Should I add different world files too in world directory?

[pawanw17]

What do you mean?

[Tanishq30052002]

@pawanw17
Since in custom robots there are some more world files which are not duplicate to the ones in the world directory.
So I want to know if we are supposed to move those world files to the world directory also?

[pawanw17]

@jmplaza where should we keep all the world files? inside CustomRobots folder?

That way when CustomRobots is built they would automatically be sourced, but I don't know if other applications(Visualcircuit, btstudio) build CustomRobots.
