Changing routing procedure via intermediate points
You can add temporary intermediate points in a vehicle route and move them to different links. Vissim calculates a new link sequence or partial link sequence from the next upstream lying intermediate point via the current new point up to the next intermediate point downstream. In the case that no further intermediate point was set, the entire route is recalculated. You can add intermediate points already during the definition of vehicle routes (Inserting intermediate points into a vehicle route).
1. On the network object sidebar, click Vehicle Routes.
2. Click in the Network Editor on the destination section of the desired route.
The link sequence is shown as a colored band.
3. Hold down the Ctrl key and right-click on the desired positions of the intermediate points.
4. Release the keys.
5. Click the first intermediate point you want to move and keep the left mouse button held down. Then drag the intermediate point to the desired position on another other link.
The new link sequence is shown as a colored band.
6. Release the keys.
7. If desired, move additional intermediate points.
8. If you would like to confirm the new link sequence and hide the yellow band, in the Network Editor, click an empty area.
