Pathfinder is a new evacuation simulator. Unlike flow-based or cell-based models, Pathfinder uses techniques from current computer science research to model the movement of individuals, building on technology used in the gaming and computer graphics industries.

Pathfinder provides the tools necessary to make confident decisions regarding building layout and fire protection system design. Multiple simulation modes and customizable occupant properties let you easily explore different scenarios, allowing calculation of conservative and optimistic bounds on expected evacuation times.

Pathfinder is an agent-based simulator - each occupant uses a set of individual parameters and makes decisions independently throughout the course of the simulation.

In addition to an advanced pedestrian movement simulator, Pathfinder includes an integrated user interface and 3D results visualization. Pathfinder allows you to evaluate evacuation models more quickly and produce more realistic graphics than with other simulators.

Easy to use three-pane user interface: Macros are organized to user defined groups (similar to folders in Windows Explorer) for simpler navigation and management. Macro properties are showing in tabbed pane where can be easily modified.
Simple visual macro editing. It is not necessary to know the macro language syntax. Each command and its parameters is visually edited in its own edit window.
Fully featured macro editor with integrated debugger. Easily debug macros and watch variable values.
Smart macro recorder. Macro recorder detect when a window where macro is being recorded is changed and automatically adds code for appropriate window activation. Macro playback reliability is much improved.
Security - macro file is encrypted and thus it is not possible to view its content in other program or file viewer.
Password protection - macros can be password protected so that only authorized persons can view/run/modify them.
Sharing macros in work group. It is possible to share macros over LAN network so that all employees have access to the same macros.
Generate a file for FreeMacroPlayer. * FreeMacroPlayer is a free environment allowing to trigger and play macros the same as in Macro ToolsWorks.
Application specific macros - the same macro trigger can start different macros in different applications. This allows user to unify computer environment.
