It is determined whether or not the destination shown in (2) can be reached (step S02).

Further, a plurality of next destination ranges are set so as to surround the next departure point (that is, the destination indicated in the destination information of the input data 45).
- the next destination range is a range of positions set as destinations in the next traveling simulation. It should be noted that the next destination range is automatically set by the traffic flow simulator 2 and is not designated by the user. As will be understood from the following description of the processing, the next destination range is only a range set for selecting a destination set temporarily for calculating the reachable point. However, the number of the next destination range to be set may be variably adjusted by the user.

That is, the point at which the SOC becomes 0%) should be determined.
- a point on the route from the next departure point to the electricity shortage point is a point that is determined to be reachable when the departure point is the next departure point. Any one of the points on the route from the next departure point to the power failure point (including the power loss point except for the next departure point) is calculated as a “reachable point”.

Further, the reachable point may be determined as a point that can be reciprocated from the next destination (that is, a point that can be reached from the next destination and can be returned to the next destination again).

- the closed curve constituting the boundary line 58 is not displayed as a circle.
- the method of calculating the reachable distance when departing from the destination based on the SOC after reaching the destination cannot calculate the reachable point in detail. After reaching the ground, it is only possible to display the reachable range as a circle when leaving the destination.
