Modifying TrafficControls

Hi,

is it possible to modify a TrafficControl in a way, that only certain travelers on a network (e.g. TaskExecuters with a certain destination) are recognized and controlled and all the other travelers can pass without restrictions?

Thanks in advance

Patrick

Hello Patrick,

yes, you can.
The information is in the command manual for "trafficcontrolinfo".
If you want control the area on your own, you can define the controlled and uncontrolled Taskexecuters in the OnEntryRequest-Trigger of the TrafficControl. The Return-value of the controlled Taskexecuters is "TC_ON_ENTRY_REQUEST_DEFAULT", all other Taskexecuters return value is "TC_ON_ENTRY_REQUEST_ALLOW".

In the following source code are all Taskexecuters of the Operator-Class independent from the TrafficControl. The other Classtype-Travelers, such as Transporter, Taskexecuter, ASRS-Vehicle and other, are still controlled by the TrafficControl. The Code is from the OnEntryRequest-Trigger.

/**Custom Code - uncontrolled  Classtype Operator*/
treenode current = ownerobject(c);
treenode traveler = parnode(1);
if(eq(classobject(traveler),node("/Operator",library())))
return TC_ON_ENTRY_REQUEST_ALLOW;
