      • removed some internal junctions that were not necessary
      • repositioned internal junctions so that the waiting vehicles do not overlap with foe vehicles ticket1611

    • Improved realism of pedestrian dynamics on walkingareas when using model striping. Pedestrians at arbitrary angles now properly avoid each other.
    • Added option --pedestrian.striping.jamtime <TIME> to control behavior of jammed pedestrians. By default, pedestrians will now start squeezing through the jam after being stopped for that time. As a consequence, pedestrian scenarios now always terminate.

    • Rerouters can now set permitted vehicle classes on closed lanes, see ticket1518
    • A warning is now issued when a loaded network contains unsafe connections. ticket447
    • A new car-following class based on the original Krauß was added that that takes into account the maximum acceleration ability computed by PHEMlight

    • When drawing streets with exaggerated width, the edge in one direction no longer overlaps with the opposite direction. ticket1540
    • Now setting window title when loading config or net at application start.
    • Added menu for locating persons. ticket1276
    • The line information for a vehicle is now shown below the vehicle id and in the parameter dialog. ticket1563

  • NETCONVERT
    • read heightmaps from GeoTIFFs for instance SRTM data ticket1495
    • when adding sidewalks via typemap or --sidewalks.guess, permissions on all other lanes are now automatically set to disallow pedestrians. ticket1507
    • sidewalks can now be added for specific edges by adding the attribute sidewalkWidth="<width_in_m>" to <edge>-elements in .edg.xml-files. This automatically remaps any existing connections. ticket1580
    • when using pedestrian crossings and green verges (lanes which disallow all vClasses), the crossing now starts at the side of the ride instead of the green verge. ticket1583
    • Added option --sidewalks.guess.from-permissions <BOOL>. This adds sidewalks for edges that allow pedestrians on any of their lanes regardless of speed. ticket1588
    • Can now import waterways from OSM (needs a custom type-map).
    • The junction size can now be customized using the new <node>-attribute radius. ticket1605
    • Added option --junctions.corner-detail <INT> which can be used to generate rounded intersection corners. ticket1606
    • user-defined shapes for internal lanes, crossings and walkingareas are now supported via the new customShape-element in .con.xml files. ticket1607

    • can now move the view in 'Create Edge'-mode by holding <CTRL>
  • Tools
    • sort_routes.py now supports sorting persons and also copies additional elements (such as vType to the output).
    • cutRoutes.py can now handle nested stops in a vehicle definition.
    • added routeStats.py for computing statistics on route length.
    • added traceExporter.py option --orig-ids <BOOL> for keeping the original vehicle IDs instead of a running index. For some output formats such as NS2 this only works if the vehicle IDs are numeric to begin with.
    • route2trips.py now preserves vType elements.
    • server.py now starts with 'real world' gui settings and initial delay of 20. Also, the trip generation settings have been tweaked for realism (i.e. shorter pedestrian trips, longer train troutes)

    • Fixed includes to speed up compilation

Enhancements

  • Simulation

    • Now supports parallel routing by using the option --device.rerouting.threads <INT>
    • Added new routing algorithms 'astar' and 'CH' which are faster than the default 'dijkstra' algorithm.

    • Added visualization options for drawing vehicles, persons, POIs, polygons and additional gui objects with constant size when zooming out.
    • The dialog for changing visualization settings is now resizable and will remember its size across application runs. All settings are now scrollable to allow work on smaller screens.

    • Added new link state 'u' to encode red-yellow phase (shown as orange). Vehicles behave as if 'r' (red) was set. This linkstate may be used to indicates upcoming green phase according to RiLSA.
    • Lane coloring by speed now uses more colors (the same as vehicle coloring by speed).
  • NETCONVERT
    • Roundabouts can now be specified via plain-xml input. They are also written to the .edg.xml-file when using option --plain-output-prefix.

    • Added randomTrips.py option --weights-prefix <STRING> which allows loading edge probabilities for being source/destination/via. The file format is the same as for option --weights-output-prefix <STRING> with missing edges defaulting to probability 0 and missing files defaulting to normal randomization.
