9. If while editing the shape of a line route system route PrT path you closed Visum using the x in the upper right corner and saved the Version file this could lead to line routes system routes PrT paths with an empty course As a result the program could show undefined behavior This error has been fixed 13143 Marking turns In some cases connected with turn volumes marked turns were not highlighted as such in the Network window This error has been fixed 13124 Other procedures Setting signal programs for RBCs The Set signal programs procedure kann now also be used to set the signal program for RBCs 12080 PrT Assignment Update of journey time t_Cur When you changed transport system data in particular the car units the journey time in the loaded ntewokr t_Cur and the parameters derived thereof impedance were not updated This error has been fixed 13202 PuT Assignment Fare calculation Due to a program error fare calculation was not always stable That means the program could output different results for the same calculation This error has been fixed 13125 TFlowFuzzy Progress statistics for multiple demand segments If you performed the matrix correction procedure TFlowFuzzy for multiple demand segments the progress statistics only contained information on the last demand segment used Now the statistics for all demand segments are written to the results file one after the other
10. Other procedures Q Division by 0 in Edit attribute The procedure Edit attribute used to return a 0 when executing a division by 0 in one of the terms even if the target attribute supports empty values The interactive operation and formula attributes correctly return empty values The Edit attribute procedure now also returns an empty value except if one of the other terms results in a non empty value of course 12053 Blocking back calculation The formula for the calculation of the average waiting time has been changed The average waiting time is the total waiting time divided by the effective capacity of the link 12128 PrT Assignment Q Q Assignment with ICA The assignment method has been revised and improved Thus the results of the assignment change 10239 Cycle time optimization Due to some internal changes the results of signal time optimization may change in some specific cases Signal controlers with only non conflicting signal groups if multiple equally good solutions exist 11791 ICA calculation The attribute ICA upstream adjustment is now an attribute of the turn Thus the calculation results obtained change accordingly 12423 ICA signalized The factor f_bb attribute of the leg was replaced by an attributes for the definition of the local bus stopping rate When reading data from earlier version the old factor will be converted into the new attribute This may change ICA results if
11. are now determined correctly when volumes at an arm are 0 important for assignment with ICA This allows for assignment results with ICA 12855 13 00 02 80828 2013 07 24 New Features and Changes Data Model Has no opposing right of way Nodes and main nodes now have a new attribute that specifies whether the node main node has a non opposing right of way or not A decisive factor are the turn types between the legs of the major flow 12538 Specific transfer walk times The specific transfer walk times betwen transport systems and time profiles now have relations to the stop the from and to transport system or the from and to time profile 12655 Dialogs Entry of formulas After using buttons to enter operands and binary operators the cursor is now positioned to the right of the operator For parentheses and all operators containing parentheses it is positioned between the opening and closing parenthesis 12692 Foreign Formats Export of VDV data A new add on module allows the export of public transport network and timetable data in VDV452 format With the exception of line blocks all relevant data including line route polygons are exported Optionally data contained in user defined attributes can be written to additional columns in the output The functionality is also accessible through the COM interface 11394 Procedure Sequence Display of current iteration If a procedure sequence is carri
