Hello all,
Thank you for the great ideas Jakob,
1) Can you please explain what you mean when you say to place the two edges on top of each other with reversed geometries? Do they share the same nodes? (my failed attempts are below)
2) Is a collision supposed to be detected in SUMO GUI with a warning message or something like that in the output?
I attempted your method #2 in two ways. (I also tried simply narrowing the lane width and widening the cars on a regular two-way road,
but it seems it's only for visualization; I think it had no effect
because I got no message in SUMO GUI of a collision or issue).
- When any 2 edges (parallel and opposite in direction) were connected to the same 2 nodes, as much as I tried in NetEdit to make the edges overlap, NetEdit automatically changed the Y-coordinates in the shapes of the lanes to make them not overlap. So that did not work.
- I then made the edges in each direction connected to a different set of nodes (as in the code snippet below), and made the nodes almost fully overlap each other but without them merging. The result was that visually the lanes were above each other, but again SUMO GUI showed no sign of an issue or collision as the vehicles passed through each other and kept going.
