Hi,
regarding the stair problems, I have found some difficulties when I try to use the "one-point stair tool".
I have tried to simulate the "stairwell example", by the PathFinder Example Guide.
Adding the stairs using "one-point stair tool", I have created the second flight of stairs. Since the tread and the rise of that stairs was both irrational numbers, the upper stair edge and the landing enge do not overlap.
Then, the simulation results showed:
- the people on the upper floor don't evacuate because they have no exits (the only exit would be the stair, but there is a little space between the upper landing and the stair);
- due to the little space next to the upper stair edge, this was considered like a exit and, then, some people on the second floor evacuated not going down but going up.
Visually, I don't see the little space, since it is very very small; I have solved the problem b deleting the second flight of stairs and using the "two-points stair tool" to recreate it.
Where Did I make a mistake?
Is there a way to overlap the edges automatically, when I'm not sure that they overlap perfectly?
Thanks,
Andrea
