2.2
road driving rules and similarities with AStar logic
the astar logic can be applied to find a
path on a roadmap, but some things /
rules will have to be considered to
prevent an accident or to be annoyed by
cops
for example :
one way roads : a link going from one
node to another node, but only one way
(no link from other node to one node)
dead end roads : a link going from
intersection (node) to a node at dead
end, and another link going from dead
end (node) to a node at intersection
temporary obstructeds road : one or
several links and / or nodes disactivated
traffic lights / stops : a temporarily
disactivated link, or a link of a higher
length than its real length (to take into
account the slowing down of a redlight /
stop)
113
roundabouts / giveways : a link of a
higher length than its real length (to
take into account the slowing down of
the giveways)
traffic jams / frequently crossed roads
(by people) : a link of a higher length
than its real length, at specific times of
the day (to take into account the
slowingdown of the trafficjam / people
crossing the road)
speed limits : a link of a higher or
smaller length depending on the time it
takes to travel this distance when
respecting the speed limit (maybe use a
factor of 1.0 for a speed limit of
100km/h, and others factors for other
speed limits, and multiply the
corresponding factor by the normal
length to calculate the considering speed
length)
PART 3 : how Santa is going to reach each chimney fast
3.1
sky structure and similarities with AStar structure
on a skymap, assuming you can go at
any altitude, there are free ways
everywhere, (the exeption would be high
mountains, and tornados, and storms,
and lightning, and others planes /
helicopters, which could be considered
as obstacles), and there are roofs with
chimenys / air shafts where to drop the
gifts
in this case, the nodes would be the
chimneys / air shafts, the links would be
the free ways between them
