Multi-Capable Agent

The MultiCapableAgent agent is a MultimodalAgent that implements different steering capabilities. As right now it supports car driving (ICarSteeringCapable) and cycling (IBicycleSteeringAndRentalCapable). Moreover, it allows to use the ferry and walking (Pedestrian).

Dynamic capabilities​

The MultiCapableAgent agent can be configured by enabling and disabling these capabilities so that different agents (of the same type) may have different modalities at hand to choose from.
The capability for car driving can be set with over the property CapabilityDriving and for cycling with CapabilityCycling.

Output aggregation​

The result output as simulation results can be generated for each individual agent to perform detailed analysis. For bigger scenarios it might make sense to switch to an aggregate output. The MultiCapableAgent allows to only store information for successfully finished multimodal routes.

As aggregate data following information is provided:

propertydescription
ExpectedTravelTimeAn estimation on the required time to travel the multimodal route
ActualTravelTimeThe required time to travel the full multimodal route
RouteMainModalityIf the multimodal route has different modalities then the one which allows the fastest travel is the main modality
RouteMainModalActualTravelTimeThe required time to travel the main modality part of the multimodal route
RouteMainModalRouteLengthThe length of the main modality route
RouteModalitiesAn overview over different sections/subroutes (e.g. Walk➡️Cycle:arrow_right:Walk) of the multimodal route
RouteModalityCountThe amount of different route sections (e.g. Walk➡️Cycle:arrow_right:Walk = 3)

To activate the multimodal route aggregation output use following definition in the config.json.
