Poor column formation handling of land vehicles on the road
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

AI drivers can't maintain same average speed in any column formation type, so the movement of any column of vehicles on the road looks like "iterative". Vehicle accelerates until it nearly runs into the next vehicle, then it slows down not to run into next vehicle or an obstacle and stops, then accelerates again. It doesn't depend on whether there are different types of vehicles in the convoy or the same.

Convoys have always been pretty bad in RV engine. However, VBS seems to have nearly perfect convoy handling.

Mass closing ancient tickets with no activity for > 12 months; assume fixed or too trivial.

If this issue is still relevant in current dev build, please re-post.
