Hi Camillo,
 
can you please say which car-following model you use? We had some issues 
(see here <https://github.com/eclipse-sumo/sumo/pull/13755> ) with ACC 
recently which could impact your task.
 
Best regards
Mirko

Hi Mirko,
 
thanks for these tips. I am actually still not able to solve this problem. 
Firstly I am using a custom model and i only have one lane. I tried your 
approach but i think because i am using a custom model it does not consider 
this tau value in the calculation. My requirement is to ensure there are 
80veh/km in a 5km straight road stretch and i would like to have the scene 
achieved the moment the ego vehicle is introduced in the scenario so that 
it can experience this density. Can this be done without Traci?
 
Thank you.
 
Best regards,
Camillo

  Hi Camillo,
   
  tau is a car-following model parameter which defines the time gap between
  the vehicles and can be defined in the vehicle type definition inside the
  route file (see docs
  
<https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Definition_of_Vehicles%2C_Vehicle_Types%2C_and_Routes.html#car-following_model_parameters>
 
  ). So basically you define a vehicle type like this:
   
  <vType id="myType" tau="1" />
   
  At tau = 1s the distance to the leading vehicle when driving at 7.885m/s
  is 7.885m (no rocket math here ;-)). Obviously I have left out all the
  other possible vehicle type attributes you can find in the documentation.
  The vehicle type can be referenced by its ID in the flow using the type
  attribute.
   
  Best regards
  Mirko

  Hi Mirko,
  Thank you for the link. I tried the solution and understood the way to
  define the constant density but I am not sure I understood how to define
  the fixed time gap/spacing between the vehicles..I can't really
  understand what the sentence below means and how to change the tau value.
  Thanks. 
      * at a default value of tau=1 (desired time headway excluding minGap)
        this means vehicles will be in a stationary state at 7.885m/s

    Hi Camillo,
     
    please read carefully the FAQ entry
    
<https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/FAQ.html#how_do_i_insert_vehicles_with_a_fixed_density>
 
    about constant density and get back if you have more questions.

    Hi all,
     
    I would like to fix the movement of the vehicles with a fixed time gap
    between them so that they will move in a platoon like manner. I tried
    to find the solution in the documentation to adjust the flow
    information but I am not able to understand how to do this correctly. I
    would like to have a density of 80 vehicles/km with a time gap of 2
    seconds between the vehicles. Can this be defined in the route file
    itself? Thank you.
     
    Best,
    Camillo
