I've been trying to make this robot simmulator running in my computer with ROS Melodic, but the package itself has no branch for melodic, so, how can I deal with this?

Hi @trejkev,

It depends if you are able to fullfil all packages dependencies in the porting-to-melodic process. Generally speaking you can download all needed packages, place them in the src folder of you catkin workpace, compile and expect it to not throw any errors. In case, any of the packages contains a non melodic dependency you will have to do the same with them, but taking a look at all package.xml you should not have any problem with another packages not supported in melodic that were supported in Kinetic.
