Multi Robot Navigation And Stage

Is stage with navigation still supported? If so are there any working examples of taking base_scan from stage and having it update the local_costmap in move_base?

I tried navigation_stage and it does not work in hydro. I've also spent the day adjusting older launch files for hydro and they also do not register base_scans in local_costmap. I confirmed this using rosrun rviz rviz.

I submit a related question: http://answers.ros.org/question/119051/local-costmap-empty-using-move_base_node/ and I've found that after changing LaserScan topic start to register some lectures, but it is still failing.

Yes, I have noticed the costmap update if I move the obstacles to the origin of the odom. But once the robot starts moving, the costmap fails. I think it's a TF issue but Costmap2D is quite complex. The problem is deep in obstacle_layer plugin...
