[sumo-user] Simpla platooning + TraciC++?

[Linwood Hudson <vtkougrr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi gang,

This might be a crazy question, but I'm using the Traci C++ API for my simulation but I need platooning behavior and would like to use Simpla. I have too much written in C++ to convert it all over to Python, but I'd also rather not implement a platooning model in C++ when SImpla already does so much.

Is there any way to utilize Simpla to define and manage the platooning, while making it available for use from my C++ sim? I'd imagine this would require 2 connections to Traci, one from Python to activate and step Simpla, and the other from my C++ application. Could a route defined through the C++ API use any of the simpla vehicle types (original, leader, follower, etc.)?

Thanks!

Linwood
