Hi, I am working with an ifc extension file containing 11 floors. I worked with separate workspaces for each floor and created their topology. I want to calculate the shortest path in the building. For this, I have to combine the topology of each floor with stairs, how can I do this?

Since the nodes created for topology slowed down the system, I had to work on each floor separately.

Hi @glshayaz,

I don't think there is an easy answer to this - the ShortestPathFinder only works in 2D.

I think you will need to find the shortest path to each elevator/stairwell on your initial floor, then the shortest paths from each elevator/stairwell on the destination floor to the destination. Combine the path length for each elevator/stairwell, then determine the overall shortest path from those lengths.
