First of all sorry for hijacking your thread in English. I can ready German well enough and even speak it a bit, but writing is a challenge at this time of night...

I can share my experiences with the new triggers up to now. First a screenshot of a section in the “Street” section of the menu.



“New Request” is an new option. With it you can enter like the “behaviour” of a trigger. When clicking it a new white line is added. When you click on that line the dialog as shown comes up. In this dialog we define the behaviour of the trigger. The behaviour of a trigger is either a pause or a jump.

When we use the trigger as a pause the ‘Jump’ box is not selected. In that case the cycle time stops at the red marker. If we use it as a jump the ‘Jump’ box is selected and a time is entered. This is the time the jump will go to.

The last value “… if no trigger” is quite important. If the checkbox is not checked and the trigger becomes activated then the pause or jump is used. If the checkbox is checked and the trigger becomes activated then the pause of jump is skipped.

In the example above you can see I created a trigger that starts at 9 seconds and jumps back to 0 seconds if the trigger is not active. So when the trigger is activated it will go up to 9 seconds, see the jump but ignore it and then continue all the way to the end, so including the green phase for the tram.

Now how to connect it.

You can add a trigger like the one you use for switches. In the trigger option you can now also find a setting to trigger a ‘request’ in a traffic light system.



So when this trigger is activated by a tram set up correctly for sensors it will activate the request in the traffic light system.

Next to that we want to see we activated the request. For that we can connect the “A” traffic light to the request. Select it in the world and then on the left, click on streets, select the right system and click “Add Request Objs”. Then choose the request you want to attach it to.

Apart from automatic triggers you can also use a manual trigger. For that there is a “RequestTriggerBox” object. You can add that in the same way as the “A” traffic light. When you click the button on it the request will also be started.

Janine, feel free to "borrow" this explanation for the lexicon if you think it is good enough

An early night for this tram driver

Hier gibts 'n Update

karadamir, take a deep breath. I understand your frustration. But please remember you are dealing with people here. The problem will not be solved faster by emotions. Instead, please, deep breath.

It is very annoying to run into these issues but that is no reason to be insulting or degrading to others. You have already found another way to look at the problem, by contacting the plugin authors. If you supply them with the differences in the .x3d files that are created they might be able to help.

You probably noticed this already but the windows next to the doors do a magic trick on the doors themselves, they disappear..

I think the AI functions are dependent on the features of LOTUS. So when LOTUS includes AI this addon will use it.

The AI vehicle is a vehicle that you cannot drive yourself. When you are driving you can see it on an AI-controlled trip but you cannot operate it yourself. However, ViewApp , please correct me if I am wrong

Indeed, makes sense. I did miss the doors on the other side of the vehicle, you are right

Nice details karadamir! Will you also make variations like other doors (opening inwards or other) or bi-directional vehicles?

Revised the depot in my test route and extended it a bit further

My test map and the GT6N

Hallo Cedric,

Die Achse (x,y und z) sind nur die richtung für die Animation. Versuche mit "Verschiebung bij Var = B (m)"

I have also been playing a bit with the map editor
