Gray lines on Grid Map

There are multiple gray lines on grid Map: straight ones going towards obstacles you are supposed to crash into and some circles in one corner (back left when spawning). For now it's possible only to just follow them to crash into something. Could I connect the car to them and just watch it crash savagely into a wall (like in real crash tests), or this function will be added, or they are just suggestions on what to do? I'm very curious.

 

erm pictures would be useful if you can display it that would help all of us out

 

Those gray lines. They do nothing, but being gray.

 

Currently i do not believe that you can make cars follows those lines by default. But if you were to place roads over the top of them in the map editor it is possible that you could get the AI to then follow those roads towards their impending doom

 

OK, thanks. It will be hard, because I don't really understand a lot of world editor features. I will wait for/suggest creating such a feature, so I could make them follow th lines with simple shortcut.

 

They are roads... Just set their driveability to (I think) 1 for the AI to use them.

 

How do I do that? (I bought the game on Thursday, so I'm not familiar with many available functions)

 

You need to press F11 to get into the editor, then find the roads in the window on the right.

 

Could you please write down more specific instructions? So I could recall it tomorrow when I'm back from school, since it's 10:40 pm here now and I haven't got my computer on.

 

I'm not good at explaining... Maybe someone else can help.

 

Just write step after step; like to a moron (ex. Top left corner, button with paintbrush. Anything.)

 

Let's try with pictures...
Press F11

Expand the "Mission Tree" on the "Scene Tree" on the right.

Find the road you want to change.

Set the driveability to 1.

 

ok, now I know how to do it. So now when I get my car over the modded road... What will happen? It will drive on it like a slot car?

 

Not quite. If you set the AI to drive your car, it'll try to stick to the road.
It'll likely stop before the end of the road.

 

Set AI to drive my car? I'm so sorry, but I'll probably train you how to explain. Unless there is some site where it's written how to do all this stuff. And I apologise in advance, because I ask a lot of questions.

 

Press Esc and click "Apps".


Click "Add App".


Click "AI Control".


Drag it to where you want it.


Click "Done".


Click "Random" on the dropdown list shown.

 

thanks. I'll try that tomorrow. BTW you are not bad at explaining things
