Hi, i have been building a "GTA" style game for the past couple of months and cannot find any code to allow cars in my game to follow a path PROPERLY without getting stuck in the ground or in each others boundng box. I am currently using the "aiDumbiped" template to get them to move, i know this is only for bipeds but its the only way i can get the cars to follow a path. How can i get the cars to loop around a path?

Before looking for a better pathfinding routine
work on this important part:

Make the car get stuck less likely.

Even a good patchroutine cant avoid to get into
"complex" area where collisions can occur.

Work on a routine to use traces to the sides and down, which
recognize the cars distance to an objestacle.
Then "push" the car way from it. (opposite vector to the trace direction).

This way you can make the cars aoid small gabs / other objects more easily, without
relying so much on a better pathfinding.

Best is to have the car alway a bit in the air, and not directly
collide with the ground.
(like a hovercraft).
The wheels should be passable, and only seem to be touching on the street.

This can even out a lot of problems with the underground.
The same goes for the distance to objects on the side. / in front

What is pathfinding and how it is work?

question: Can you mail me you cars or the website of your cars where you buy this cars?
