    Hi guys,

    I'm really sorry if it has been posted before but i searched some keywords in the forum and didn't find anything.

    My idea was to finally implement an old mod that was available 4 years ago, it was called random tour.
    Basically, for the one who never played it, you selected a map in the scenarios menu. Once you spawned in the game would create a random track from point A to B, with checkpoints in between and varying lenght, from 1 km to a few km. After that it selected a random car and it would let you start.

    For me it was the best experience in Beam.NG as it gave a purpose to the drive, trying to survive through all the track. If this could be brought back as an official scenario it would just be blissfull.

    Thanks for reading, and i'll excuse myself again if i double posted stuff

    Personally I'd love to see this used as a taxi mode. On similar lines, that Flowgraph example scenario on WCUSA where you have to get as many checkpoints as possible in the alloted time is IMO the most fun scenario, yet it's hidden...

    Ey man thanks for your politeness. What you are asking is something like the existing Gymkhana generator but for point to point sprint races in any map, right? Using the AI pathing? That sounds like it could be a cool idea.

    That's exactly what i meant. When they introduced the gymkhana i was so excited because i thought it would be something like this, but it isn't.

    Don't get me wrong, itsi pretty nice for drifting around, but having proper random tracks would top that off gteatly for me.

    Random car, randon course...maybe you'll get some sport car in an off-road track, great challenge. Next try a truck on the motorway....and so on, you get infinite races just one click away.

    And since modders did that 4 years ago i think it wouldn't be too hard to code this, i guess
