Hello,

Lane change mode: 1621 (default)
Lane change model: SL2015
Max. duration given for a vehicle to perform a lane change: 10 s (arbitrary)

1. I am trying to discourage lane changes enforced by TraCI that are not
valid, i.e.,

A vehicle trying to move to the right or the left from the rightmost or
leftmost lane in the network respectively, or a vehicle that cannot perform
a certain lane change operation within the given time due to other vehicles
blocking it.

For a lane change operation initiated on a vehicle by

traci.vehicle.*changeLaneRelative*(vehID=*veh_id*, indexOffset=*dr*,
> duration=*lc_max_duration*)


The following code should tell me if the lane change will be a success:

*lcs* = traci.vehicle.*getLaneChangeState*(vehID=*veh_id*, direction=*dr*)[1]
> # index 1 for TraCI
> *lc_success* = traci.vehicle.*wantsAndCouldChangeLane*(vehID=*veh_id*,
> direction=*dr*, state=*lcs*)


However, in the particular case where direction=0 (stay in the same lane),
it still returns false. This made sense in a situation where the vehicle
was still in the middle of a previous lane change from another lane (where
it was between two lanes, and hence cannot "stay" in the same lane).

a. But it also happened to a vehicle that had departed from the rightmost
lane and chose to "stay". I could not understand it even with the help of
the console output's 'pretty' version of the Lane change state for the
TraCI command as shown:

veh id: f.2 (currently on lane 0)
> lc success: False
> lcs pretty: ['stay', 'TraCI', 'sublane']
> Direction: 0


b. On a side note, the pretty version of the lane change state seems to be
empty when it encounters a situation where the TraCI command tries to move
the vehicle to a lane that doesn't exist, i.e. "move right" on the
rightmost lane - just looking for confirmation?

veh id: f.0 (currently on lane 0)
> lc success: False
> lcs pretty: []
> Direction: -1


2. I am trying to program an action that translates to "cooperate" with
another vehicle. For this, I need to know what needs to be done in a
situation where a leader/follower vehicle on the same or a different lane
is blocking another vehicle from changing lanes. So if I can figure out the
minimum changes that need to be made to resolve this situation - for
example, the lateral distance between the ego vehicle and blocking vehicle
has to be at least *X *m and the longitudinal distance between ego and
blocking vehicle has to be at least *Y *m or maybe the relative speed
difference has to be at least *S *m/s, then the lane change can go ahead.

As I understand it, my question would be answered from this:
https://github.com/eclipse/sumo/blob/f71860fb1b15868e0be63338bfcbd3fc05b08451/src/microsim/lcmodels/MSLCM_SL2015.cpp#L2190

but there are many components like the TraCI constant tc.LC_BLOCKED and
how/when it is set that I don't fully understand.

Please advise. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Hriday
