elevatorsim is an elevator simulator written in Javascript.
Valid question! At the place I work we have elevators, as with many workplaces. However from time to time they seem to make stupid decisions that causes frustration for people waiting. This has caused a discussion to arise regarding how hard it could be to write a decent elevator software. After many weeks of thinking about this issue I decided to put together a basic simulator to be able to try this out.
I will write more in this readme when I get the inspiration.
- Clone repo
- npm install
./main.js
Usage: node ./main.js
Examples:
node ./main.js --ai=simple --scenario=scenario1 Run the simulation with the default options
Options:
-a, --ai Select an AI to use [required]
-s, --scenario Select a scenario to run [required]
-l, --logger Select a logger to use [required]
-r, --randomseed Random seed to use for seeded scenarios

npm test
Scenario files are placed in scenario/. See scenario/scenario1.js for a simple example.
1 tick = 3 seconds of real time
| Action | Real-time | Ticks |
|---|---|---|
| Open and close doors | 9s | 3 |
| Move one floor | 9s | 3 |
| One hour | 1h | 1200 |
