AI script is an amazing feature. I would like to see these added features to it. Proximity controls - where the vehicle will avoid hitting objects and will try to drive around them. Drive in reverse - If i record i script driving in reverse, in the playback the vehicle drives the path forward. Speed control - ability to set the speed of the vehicle rather than needed to record the speed with a vehicle. I have messed around with the actually AI script code file, but its a bit complex to figure out.
I agree. The script ai paths are good, but since they are just coordinates the ai tends to not follow them well, particularly on road courses.
can u use script ai to make decal roads so traffic ai follow those? i know this totally wrong place to ask lol
Hello, As of the latest release, there is a new ScriptAI tool available in the world editor. Have a look here for some documentation: https://documentation.beamng.com/world_editor/tools/scriptai_editor/ This tool addresses many of the above problems described in this thread, and allows for more complex vehicle-to-vehicle interaction behaviour to be modelled. ScriptAI vehicle trajectories can now behave much more accurately, with error reduced down to the centimeter range. Editable camera paths can also be added to produce scenarios/video content. Hope this can help. Dave
I actually was wondering about the tool, because I do not understand how to use it, and I read the documentation. Does it use the files recorded in the old script ai manager?
It is completely independent from the ScriptAI Manager. Recording can be done directly in the tool, along with manual draw-in of trajectories or import. Dave
Are there any tutorial videos on how to use it yet. I spent an hour screwing around with it and accomplished basically nothing.
I would greatly appreciate it, as I also don't quite understand yet how this can make my workflow easier in terms of video production, or how it compares to ScriptAI Manager.
We have added an example walkthrough for using the tool here: https://documentation.beamng.com/beamng_tech/scriptaieditor/video_walkthrough/ Dave
