Hello, The value of waitSteps counts the number of simulation steps in which a vehicle was waiting. So if your vehicle waits for 3 seconds and you simulation with --step-length 0.2 that would be 15 waitSteps. In the latest development version, the attribute waitSteps is replaced with waitingTime which is measured in seconds. ( http://sumo.dlr.de/wiki/ChangeLog#Git_master).
The value of tau determines the desired time-headway between successive vehicles. The exact usage of this value depends on the car following model (see http://sumo.dlr.de/wiki/Definition_of_Vehicles,_Vehicle_Types,_and_Routes#Car-Following_Models ) To model different perception-reaction times, see http://sumo.dlr.de/wiki/Car-Following-Models#Model_Parameters regards, Jakob 2018-04-10 2:50 GMT+02:00 Rahimi, Tariq Rahim < [email protected]>: > Hello everyone, > > > When I output the tripinfo, it says waitSteps= an integer value.
