Hi all..In their Nascar games this line (in a specific track folder) ai_line_modifier = 1.01 can be altered or deleted to allow the cars to run multiple lines through the turns. Is there anything in GPL like this? In other words to allow the cars to take a different line through the corner? Thought I would ask. DC
I think that applies mostly to ovals. The GPL AI are already smart enough to take a different line if there is a reason for them to do so. Marc "David Ciemny" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BQ4G9.7776$[email hidden]...

right..that is what I am kind of getting at. Your running your own line and they just come right through you. Must be a slight adjustment one can make to make an offline race more enjoyable. DC John Pancoast <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

If you KNOW they will come down at a certain point...Do not put yourself there.

Well, I was talking about the BRM's i.e., .........yeah, that's it :) John
There is an adjustment that I have read about that makes them sense you a bit earlier or something, but honestly, most of the problems go away when you get up to their speed. I used the AI Tweaker to slow the whole field down (and turn off the damned AI always get faster and faster so you can never beat them "feature") as I learned each track. As my times got faster, I bumped up the AI speed, too, until eventually they are at 100%.
