Systems and methods for pre-calculating information regarding interactions between objects during a simulation

A device, comprising:

• one or more processors configured to:
• determine a first location of a first end of ride equipment on a travel path of a ride system and a second location of a second end of the ride equipment on the travel path;
• determine that the first location is at a first distance from a particular position on the travel path and that the second location is at a second distance from the particular position on the travel path;
• execute a computer model to perform a simulation of a movement of a passenger vehicle along the travel path of the ride system;
• determine, during the simulation, that the passenger vehicle is located at a particular distance from the particular position after determining that the first location is at the first distance and that the second location is at the second distance;
• determine whether the particular distance corresponds to the first location or the second location;
• and
• cause an action to be performed, during the simulation, based on determining whether the particular distance corresponds to the first location or the second location.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions, the set of instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:
• determine a first location of a first end of ride equipment on a travel path of a ride system and a second location of a second end of the ride equipment on the travel path;
• determine that the first location is at a first distance from a particular position on the travel path and that the second location is at a second distance from the particular position on the travel path;
• execute a computer model to perform a simulation of a movement of a passenger vehicle along the travel path of the ride system;
• determine, during the simulation, that the passenger vehicle is located at a particular distance from the particular position after determining that the first location is at the first distance and that the second location is at the second distance;
• determine whether the particular distance corresponds to a location between the first location and the second location;
• and
• cause an action to be performed, during the simulation, based on determining whether the particular distance corresponds to the location between the first location and the second location.
