Moving Cars and Trucks around

[iceman11a 11]

It seems that when I set a Hummer or truck to go from the 1st Waypoint to the 2nd and then to the 3rd. It seems to stop at every way point.

Is there an option that I can just get it to go until I tell it to stop.

Try making the waypoint completion area larger, but they always slow down some. AI driving is not great in A2, but it got a lot better with the last patch

Thanks. I tried adding a 10 to it and the Hummer or Advenger keeps coming to a stop on each way point. I expect them to slow down. Never stop unless I tell it too. and I am using A2 Arrowhead version 1.56.76134

you cant really expect all that much of AI driving in A2 sadly, but it has been very much improved.

btw, we are on official patch 1.59, and the betas are even further.

reason why AI stop at each wp is because they calculate the route to the next wp, if you have long distance between wps then its long time to "think" up route, if you use many wps with short inbetween, then you get short stop, or not full perhaps.

Well can you tell me where I can download these updates and patches at.

[demonized 20]

i would asume arma2.com would be a pretty close guess.....

then in supply depot, you get game updates.

but a quick google would have found this for you...

[iceman11a 11]

Thanks. I hope I'm downloading the right one. There wasn't an update for ARMA 2 Arrowhead.

If what you want is for AI to follow a road smoothly, you can set only one waypoint and set the behavior as "safe" or "careless"

[iceman11a 11]

Thanks I tried that too. I fount some samples and I have a map that's missing. The utes. I will have to see if I can get this map for theses samples.

You won't get Utes from a update patch, only if you have Arma 2 installed.

I have a feeling the AI stops to perform their pathfinding, considering really long distances take really long time to calculate. Haven't checked since Arma1, but I assume similar things are going on.

[iceman11a 11]

Well then I don't under stand why I don't have that map. I have Arma 2 version 1.59 installed. and I have 3 exp packs installed too.

Arma 2 OA Operation Arrowhead

Arma 2 BAF Britsh Armed Forces

Arma 2 PMC Private Military company

you need to have Arma2 and OA installed in same folder, there is a way if you search the forums to combine the two without reinstalling, or maybe a arma2 launcher will do it manually.

[iceman11a 11]

Thanks. I just ordered Arma 2 and I guess I have to wait until it gets here. Thanks for your help.

you wont regret that, A2 delivers a massive map, and alot of different units, anyone not having both A2 and A2:OA is missing out on some really good stuff imo.

Cool, Thanks. Now I can't wait for the DVD to come.
