Patch 1.EA.066

[h2]The simple non-scheduled AI is finally here![/h2]

What the simple AI can do:
  • Drive straight ahead
  • Stop
  • Go
  • Turn
  • Merge
  • The opposite of merge
  • Show consideration for the user vehicle (bus and tram)
  • Clear the intersection (simple)
  • Traffic jam
  • Know traffic lights
  • "Right before left" and other right-of-way rules
  • indicators, tail lights, headlights

What the simple AI can't do yet:
  • Change lanes
  • driving uneven speeds at the same speed limit
  • Clear the intersection (complex)
  • Overtaking
  • Multiplayer

What's not there yet:
  • Driving AI cars from Oriolus. First of all, take the great CV2 that Rolf has made available to you all from his addon. Later on there will definitely be modern AI cars!


In addition to what should already work, we are happy about clear bug reports. To make them useful we need a video of the bug and a screenshot of the AI-paths on the map at the location, preferably from the same perspective.
