    All new Tesla cars come standard with advanced hardware capable of providing Autopilot features today, and full self-driving capabilities in the future—through software updates designed to improve functionality over time. We could see a future Tesla type car or Tesla Auto-Pilot system in BeamNG.drive. It would be very simple to create since we already have auto-drive AI.We could also have BeamNG.drive superchargers and chargers to charge the battery on the vehicle. So basically what i am saying is... make electrics special. This could be a future update for BeamNG.drive.

    Several things:

    • Charging/Refuelling will probably be added to the game one day.
    • Autopilot is much easier in the game as in real life as the car can have much more knowledge about the game world than it can have about real life.
    • It still isnt exactly easy as the driving skills of traffic should tell you. ;)
    • AI improvements are certainly always nice, but imho shouldnt be the main focus of development right now.

    I don't see what's fun or cool about autopilot in a game specifically made for driving, but ight.

    If you want this this much:

    -Use the AI app to set the specific car to drive randomly

    -Spawn an electric car as traffic, switch to it, and delete your original one

    -Or use cruise control and just do steering

    About the charging thing, there's a mod for that:

    It's like having a hot dog without the actual hot dog.

    Then it's just a bun with mustard and ketchup on it

    The point of this game is realistic car behavior.

    Grab a car, put it into automatic mode and enjoy the views.
