GPL Oval question

by Clark and Lisa Ponthie » Thu, 06 Jan 2000 04:00:00

I recently used David Noonan's converter.   However, the AI cars don't race.
They behave erraticaly.   Is there a fix to this problem??   Any help would
be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Well if you read the readme file it would answer your question.  As of right
now there is no real AI for the ovals.  As far as I know its in the works but
right now you have to race multiplayer if you want anyone else on the track
other than guys who behave like mexican jumping beans.

Clark.

There are technical issues, making it extremely difficult for the AI to run
cars on banking of any more than a few degrees elevation. This also explains
why they are slow at some points on real GPL tracks, such as Mexico for
instance.

With this in mind, Dave Noonan has not bothered with AI optimization on the
ovals. these tracks were only intended to be used for online racing.
