I have a code cloned from a repo in which these egn_messages are imported

import rospy
import csv

import ma_rrt

from egn_messages.msg import Map
from egn_messages.msg import CarSensors
from egn_messages.msg import WaypointsArray
from egn_messages.msg import Waypoint

It looks like this package is a ghost - there are only 6 pieces of ROS code in the entire GitHub, where it appears like some kind of accumulator of message types from maps, navigation, car sensors, etc.

This repository contains the ROS package with code implementation of RRT-based path planning algorithm suitable for exploration of a trackdrive circuit according to the rules of Formula Student Driverless competition in Germany. This algorithm is based on my contribution to E-gnition, a FS Team of Technical University Hamburg.

Probably this message package was not open-sourced, so you can't find it. You can replace it with analogous messages from other packages and fix the differences, or try contacting the repository maintainer
