Dear friends and users, we are happy to announce the next release of SUMO. As usual, there are many new features and fixes in this release and the most important ones are listed below.
Major feature additions: - The new SUMO option --step-method.ballistic can be used to increase the physical realism of vehicle movements (position integration uses constant acceleration rather than constant speed per time step). - Rerouters can now be used to close individual lanes to simulate dynamic work zones and accidents - Joined traffic lights can now be defined in NETEDIT by setting the junction attribute tl following the same rules as in .nod.xml files - Added support working working with special lanes (sidewalks, buslanes and bikelanes) - Connection attributes can now be edited in NETEDIT - Netconvert now imports ferry routes and railway crossings from OSM files. - The visibility at intersections can now be configured to control the braking behavior of unprioritized traffic. - OpenDRIVE output now supports elevation and uses parametric curves to represent smooth geometries - The TraCI python client now supports the convenience function traci.start() that automatically selects a port, starts sumo on that port and connects. Major bug fixes: - Fixed issues with sublane simulation (crashing, vehicle angles and also lane-changing related) - Fixed issues with rerouters (crashing, freezing, invalid edge permissions) - Fixed issues with importing/exporting OpenDRIVE networks - Vehicles added via TraCI now have the correct departDelay value. - Several fixes to the TraCI C++ client Also, we have major additions beyond the core applications: - The GUI-Framework SUMOPy by Joerg Schweizer is now part of the core release. It offers a simplified workflow for calling SUMO-applications to build a scenario. - The much sought after 24h-dataset for the TAPAS-Cologne scenario is now freely available Lots of documentation was also added: - A new tutorial on quick scenario building with the OSM-Web-Wizard - More details on loading and inserting vehicles - A new overview page on vehicle permissions - The NETEDIT documentation on old and novel features has been expanded.
