LEGION Simulator Help

Opening a model for simulation

To simulate a model, LEGION Simulator uses the LEGION Simulation Analysis File (‘ora’) that you exported at the end of your model building phase. This file contains the data and objects necessary to run a simulation. To provide the visual dimension of your simulation, LEGION Simulator also needs the LEGION Model File (‘lgm’).

To open a model for simulation:

  1. Click or select File > Open.

    The ‘Open Project Files’ dialog is displayed.

  2. Click the browse button to the right of the LEGION Model File box and select the appropriate ‘lgm’ file.
  3. Click the browse button to the right of the Data Source box and select the appropriate ‘ora’ file.
  4. If your simulation includes vehicles, check the box labelled ‘Load Aimsun simulation result file’, click the related browse button and select the appropriate XML file.

    See Showing vehicles in LEGION Simulator for more information.

  5. Click OK to confirm your choices.
Your LEGION Model File is displayed within the simulation viewing window (the LEGION Simulation Analysis File or ‘ora’ file is also associated with it). You are now ready to play and record a simulation.
