Units of distance and duration about vrp HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi,

it depends.

The solver itself doesn't assume any specific units when routing matrix is used: it should be just consistent. So, if you have meters and seconds in the routing matrix, then costs should be specified per second and meter.

If no matrix supplied, then the solver uses some approximation algorithm to calculate distance and duration between any two locations and it assumes that costs are defined using standard distance and time units: meters and seconds.

I've rechecked implementation and actually, seconds are assumed by default:

So, I need to update documentation

from vrp.

I needed that part

Thank you for answer!
But I've one more question, how does it check time windows and shifts when I provide a custom route matrix without any unit specified?
