Hey,

I have a problem and I think it comes from a stupid mistake, but I am not able to find it.

I have a world and a model plugin and data has to be exchanged. So I use the message system to send and receive messages. It works fine, both plugins are loaded and the model plugin sends a message to the world plugin. The data is received and the world plugin sends some data back. But the callback-function of the model plugin is never called.

Can you take a quick look and tell me what I did wrong? Here is the code code

I believe this is related to a problem with the Gazebo transport system. In the world pulgin message callback, you're creating a publisher then sending a message and then immediately deleting the node and publisher. The result is that the message doesn't have a chance to be sent.

The workaround is to make the node and publisher a member of the World Plugin. You should only have at most one node per class anyway.
