Driver features II

The second sheets contains the driver parameters relative to the vehicle variables.

max. pedal brake power This is a driver-depending limitation of braking force in [N].
controller parameters
kr andki
These parameters determine the pedal control behaviour, represented by a PI controller
max. pedal speed Reflects the maximum speed with which the driver is able to change the pedal position. Attention: Displayed in 1/s. e.g. the value "1" means that the driver sets the pedal in one second from zero to full throttle. This characteristic value also has effect on the brake pedal behaviour.
preferred lane This corresponds to an absolute desired lane. If this lane exists a driver tries to ride on this lane. A preferred lane can be used for example to realize turning quotas for an exit. A preferred lane of "0" means that there is no particular desired lane.

Modified data will be saved with no safety inquiry, so that the old version is overwritten. At first it is recommended to make a copy of the driver file, that changes do not affect previous simulations in the same working directory.
