Aimsun_Next License? #397

Closed KidTrunks closed 5 years ago

KidTrunks commented 5 years ago

Hi I have successfully installed Aimsun according to the setup instructions. However, upon testing the installation with:

python examples/aimsun/sugiyama.py

Aimsun licenser pops up requiring an activation key. Therefore I was wondering if it is a must requirement for completing the flow tutorials? If so, how can I go about obtaining a license?

Thanks.

hey @KidTrunks an aimsun license is only needed for the aimsun-specific components. These features are mostly self-contained, and so you should be able to run all other tutorials without experiencing any issues. I will try add a link on how an aimsun license can be acquired to the setup instructions later today, but in general you do not have to worry about this unless you want to work with aimsun specifically instead of sumo.

Okay I will contact them directly.

Just to clarify, "Tutorial 2: Running Aimsun Simulations" will require an Aimsun license is that correct?

Thanks!

AboudyKreidieh commented 5 years ago

Yup, that’s right!

KidTrunks commented 5 years ago

I understand, thank you for the clarification. You may close it now!
