Road networks in Haul Infinity have default speeds, signposted speeds, global maximum speeds, cornering speeds and ramp speeds. Wherever two speed settings conflict, the lowest speed will be chosen.

Default Speeds

Whenever a new segment is drawn, it is automatically signposted at the default speeds.

  • Trucks can travel up to (but not more than) the Max Speed.

  • Trucks exit the segment up to (but not more than) the Final Speed.

  • Trucks always choose the lowest of all applicable speed limits.

Max Speed

To change the network default max speed:

...

Note

The default Final Speed should be 99 km/h in every project.

Cornering Speeds

Cornering speeds are used to slow down trucks at intersections and switchbacks. Corners are measured by the angle of deflection and the lookahead distance.

...

The angle of deflection is calculated from the total distance travelled during cornering (the "corner lookahead distance").

To set cornering speed limits:

  1. Open SampleModelWithNodes.hinf from the samples folder.

  2. Go Navigate to Setup > Limits > Cornering Speed Limits.

  3. Set the speed limit to 10 km/h for deflections greater than 80 degrees.

...

43. Go to the Network tab.

54. Select the crusher Stockpile LG1_ROM > Right click > "Show path to" > "Stockpile"Loaded" > “LiftEntry” > “Dumps/Dump2”.

...

65. Go to the Charts tab.

76. Confirm that the truck is slowing on corners. 

...

To set loaded downhill speed limits:

  1. Open SampleModelWithNodes.hinf from the samples folder.

  2. Go to Setup > Limits > CAT 785D select Truck > Loaded Speed Limits.

  3. Change the loaded speed limit to 17 km/h for gradients of -9.5% and lower.

...

  1. Go to the Network tab and in Nodes panel choose "CrusherCrushers/Crusher1", right click and press "Zoom To".

  2. Locate the Road Signs panel to the right of the viewport

  3. Select a 20 km/h sign and drag it onto the road approaching crusher. 

...

  1. Go to Network tab and in Segments panel select roads by name (ie. "P1").

  2. Right click > Set Speed Limit on Selected Segments > 40 km/h.

...

  1. Go to Setup > Settings > Transfer Speeds.

  2. Change the Entrance and Exit speeds to 40 25 km/h.

The trucks will now use the signposted speed limits to traverse from autojoins to the network, rather than coming to a full stop.
