I found only one thread mentioning this from 2022, please delete if this post is unnecessary. I love driving on maps such as italy, and just enjoy the various cars on the twisty roads. One thing that always bothered me is that AI drives so slow, it feels like everyone has a learners permit and is just driving for the first time lol On some roads they will follow the speed limit, on others not. In all cases they will brake to a very low speed before each turn, sometimes as low as 15-20kmh even though the turn would be easily driven at around 50-60kmh irl. I think if anyone drove that way irl they would experience road rage multiple times a day every day lol I was wondering, was it always like that and is there a specific reason for this? Is AI just not yet able to handle turns without causing accidents? I think once AI traffic will drive at a normal pace the whole experience will feel much more dynamic.
Thanks, i noticed the UI app yesterday, didn't test it yet. Will experiment with it when i get back home. My question still stands though, i don't think this is intended since it doesn't feel very natural so i have to wonder if there is a specific reason for it.
You´ll see the reaseon when you set risk at 1 and then see what happens. AI cars have no awareness of banking, up- or downhill, and are always overoptimistic about their brakes. To keep them in check I guess the default risk is set at 0.3 which is very slow indeed.
I see i see, thanks! Looking forward even more to observe the chaos myself. I wonder how this is prioritized by the devs, would be great if they managed to make them feel less sleepy without turning into the perfect killer machines. The italy map would profit from it the most. But i know AI stuff and path tracing is not easy, not without using tricks that wouldn't work in a sim like beam.
