Hello, I'm Jerry.
I'm posting because I have a question.
Currently, I am using Flexsim HC.
But I think the model I make should include a ramp.
I wonder how to make a ramp and how to weight the speed when going down from the top to the bottom of the ramp. And vice versa.
I have a question because it doesn't come out well even if I search it.
Thank you.
Jerry.
FlexSim has not a physical engine. You can only set different values of speed, acceleration and deceleration on network paths. Please look into the manual to work with network nodes.
Thank you for your answer.
I thought it would be possible because it was such a scalable Flexsim.
Then may I ask if it is impossible to make a ramp, not the one you mentioned?
Thank you for your valuable time.
Jerry.
Since you are using the HC environment, you are probably using the A* navigation system. To have different floor heights, you need to set up separate grids at different z-levels. To allow travel them, add a "Bridge" path between them. This path can represent a ramp, stairs or other methods to travel between the different elevation levels.
While you can't change the speed, you can set a virtual distance for a bridge, changing the travel time that way. For different up/down times, you can then use two one-way bridges next to each other with separate virtual distances.
Thank you for your good reply.
But you can't make a ramp that can move freely like a plane, not a straight line?
