Request for Clarification on Ride Mode and Shared Mobility #1203

Description

Hi,

I have some doubts about the ride mode in MATsim and would appreciate your help.

In general, the ride mode should be defined as a person sharing a ride with another person or, let's say, a driver examples include carpooling and DRT. However, while checking the Berlin scenario, specifically the version 6.3 output data, I noticed that the ride mode is visualized as a teleported mode, whereas in the config file, it is defined as a routed mode in the network. Why is that the case?

Moreover, if I want to enable family members or neighbors to share rides, how can I implement this in MATsim? For instance, suppose person A owns a car and wants to reach their destination, and at the same time, their neighbor or family member needs to travel to a location near the driver’s destination. How can I configure this in MATsim, and which concept should I use?

I would really appreciate some clarification on the differences between carsharing, taxis, and the ride mode.

Thank you in advance for your help!
