Automatic gift delivery

Auto Credit Based on Kendog84's ZIS-5 truck w M1939 37mm AA gun

Truck is made by Kendog.

Waypoint system, attempt 3.
Have points set for wright airport only.
Previous attempt's here.
Goes to any neighbour of current point except previous visited.
If current point doesn't have any neighbours except previously visited, stop, flash headlights, exhange gifts, go back.
"Gifts" are colored dots on label. In theory it will always ride four meters to the right from line between two points. I didn't measured how it actually works, but it doesn't collides with others.

    @126 some variables are lists in index=a?xa:(index=b?xb:... form. to make them shorter i omitted closing parenthesis. it works fine with ft interpreter, but variable editor widget has it's own checker that says that such code isn't correct. to pass it you need to add those parenthesis back, e.g. turn
    p_tgt.i=1?6020:(p_tgt.i=2?5885:(p_tgt.i=3?5805:(p_tgt.i=4?5805:(p_tgt.i=5?5805:(p_tgt.i=6?5805:(p_tgt.i=7?5805:(p_tgt.i=8?5805:(p_tgt.i=9?5805:(p_tgt.i=10?5805:(p_tgt.i=11?5885:(p_tgt.i=12?6020:(p_tgt.i=13?6020:(p_tgt.i=14?6020:(p_tgt.i=15?6020:(p_tgt.i=16?5880:(p_tgt.i=17?5670:(p_tgt.i=18?5670:(p_tgt.i=19?5670:(p_tgt.i=20?5685:(p_tgt.i=21?5600:(p_tgt.i=22?5600:(p_tgt.i=23?5635:0

    Try to add 22 closing parentheses in the end of p_tgt.next.z,p_tgt.next.x,p_tgt.links.z,p_tgt.links.x and 3 closing parentheses in the end of p_tgt.next

    @11qazxc thanks, i was actually making a simple traffic cars project, and i want to make at least one reckless street racer ai.

    @DatMaluchGuy19 VC variable, it's in meters per second, and it's signed i.e. negative value means it must go backwards.
    TC controls engine directly, you can set it to 1 if you want to go as fast as possible.

    @11qazxc also btw, how can i change the maximum speed of the ai? i kinda want to make a reckless street racer ai that causes nothing but harm to fellow ai drivers, and also the player too.

    @winterro
    p_tgt.i stores id of currently selected point

    p_tgt.x, p_tgt.z are coords of currently selected point
    p_tgt.links.x, p_tgt.links.z are ids of points where it can go from currently selected one.

    p_tgt.i switches to one of p_tgt.links.x%100, p_tgt.links.x//100, p_tgt.links.y%100, and p_tgt.links.y//100 every time car gets close-enough to currently selected point

    Other variables aren't significant for routing, they're used to tame car itself, to make it unable to go to previous point, to make it not headbutt others, to make it stop at dead ends, to make it remember gifts without leaving too much inside label...

    @DatRoadTrainGuy19
    What about the game settings?
    Playing on low physics might help a little (these trucks should work fine on low physics, since they have no suspension parts)

    @Kendog84 i spawned 15 or 16 of these bad boys and no joke my frames dropped from 40 to 30 to just 15 and 10 sometimes even 9 and 8 fps too

    @IceCraftGaming
    Probably possible even with the current set up, but you first have to chart the route between two places (I do have a plan to do that)

    @Kendog84 It'd be cool if you can make it do something like drive from Yeager to Bandit so it'll be like a convoy substitute

    Spawned a bunch (more than 5) at the same time and watched them go, they rarely collided with each other when driving around. They did sometimes bunch up in one destination (one time, 3 trucks drove to the loading area behind the terminal building at once), and when it happened they did get stuck on each other for a while. Even then, they'd usually unstuck eventually. I don't think there's an easy fix for this though, given that they can't "see" each other. It would be great if we had access to something like gametick, and use it to offset destination coords by a few meters, but for now, I think this is already great as it is.
    I'll probably (or maybe) play around with the system later and see if I can create a different route.

    Awesome. You can even spawn the truck as AI, and follow them around or use it as target. (If you haven't tried yet)

    @Kendog84 I like it!! 8/10 (I didn't get to see the truck drive all the way to the start because it was divebombed by a jet but I had seen enough to rate it)

    Truck has to collect gifts first, let it drive to the loading area or hangers of Wright

    This is just, incredible.
    So much potential, for many other applications (patrolling police car, airport baggage handler, "regular" traffic...)
