Extensions

Simplify Network

The simplify network extension is used to remove excess points from the network. If the next point is within the specified distance and angle, it will be removed from the network.

To simplify the network:

  1. Open SampleModelWithNodes.hinf from the sample folder.
  2. Go to Extensions > Simplify Network
  3. Enter an angle of 10 and press OK.
  4. Enter a length of 5 and press OK.
  5. Inspect the network.

Calculation time will be faster with less segments in the network.

Assign Joins Based on Segment Names

This function is used to force blocks to only connect to certain roads. 

See Ramp Locking under Blocks exercises for more details.
