Dear all,

I observed some unexpected behavior at stops:

1. persons can enter or leave vehicles at stops, even though the vehicle is not at the lane where the stop is attached to, but also on lanes with a higher lane index (means they jump from the platform across lanes into the vehicle).

2. I noticed that persons  jump into vehicles even before they reached their edge-position according to the plan. The only condition to board  seems to be that a vehicles stops in the defined position-range and a person just happens to be in this range when the vehicle stops. This seems to occur in more recent SUMO versions.

Unfortunately with such a behavior I cannot selectively pick up persons with vehicles at dedicated positions, or just park vehicles at certain positions.

I've been complaining about this behavior some time ago. I found a workaround, but especially the second behavior makes it impossible to do what I intend. For my purpose access lists do not help, and changing vehicle capacity dynamically through TraCi is not possible.

So maybe someone of you did find a way to handle this type of problem. Otherwise I'd ask if it were a big issue to change code, there may be some really simple ways of fixing:

- board only if vehicle is on the lane of the stop

- allow change vehicle capacity through TraCi (one could  lock the vehicle by setting capacity to 0 or to the number of persons already in the vehicle, but that would not prevent persons jumping off the vehicle whenever it stops)

- adding a Lock attribute to the vehicle, this would be the best solution and also closest to reality.

Thanks as always for any ideas on this matter.

Best wishes,

Joerg
