Adding distances between nodes
Posted: Wednesday 05 December, 2018 - 09:30
Hello,
I was trying to rebuild this model (20130408_AdvancedTransporterNetwork.mod) from the following topic viewtopic.php?f=7&t=276&p=1224&hilit=co ... nced#p1224 to find out how to add distances between nodes, however I ran into two problems. When I rebuild the model and place a network controller in the model, It doesn't have the yellow dot above the atom to connect with the initialize atom.
Furthermore, when I add extra distance in the AddDistance table I can see that the total distance changed when I go to atom editor->network controller-> distance table, but the transporter doesn't travel the additional distance. I set the speed of the transporter to 1 m/s and counted the blocks from N1-1 to N1-2 which is 17 meter. It does indeed travel for 17 seconds when I don't add any extra distance in the table, but when I do add an extra 10 meter between the two nodes, the transporter still takes 17 seconds whereas the distance table indicates a distance of 27 meters total. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Ivo
