The utilization of simulations for the development of path planning algorithms for autonomous indoor multicopters is of primary importance. It offers a secure and cost-effective setting for the testing and optimization of algorithms. This article considers and examines the currently used simulation options with regard to their suitability for the development of path planning algorithms for autonomous indoor multicopters. The use of autonomous multicopters represents an innovative solution to simplify the process of layout recording and inventories. This article focuses on the voxel-based simulation VSim, developed and named by the author [1]–[2]. In light of the extant literature, the article elucidates the simulation environments that are most commonly utilized. Subsequently, a selection of simulations is compared with VSim. The time efficiency and resource usage of the simulation environments are examined based on more than 1,500 test runs. Furthermore, the observations of the test executions are described in detail, and finally, the simulations with all investigated parameters are compared. Additionally, the potential for parallelization is explored and discussed.
