AutoDrive Question

Post by solarain »

Hello,

Does anyone know how AutoDrive calculates routes from Point A to Point B? Is it the shortest route? The route with the least turns? Or something else?

I've noticed that vehicles will not always take the shortest/most direct route and I'm trying to figure out what I can do to make it work.

For example, I have nice route heading to a Farm and have a U-Turn in the middle of the Farm so the vehicles can turn around and have better access to the fields. However, the vehicles choose to drive out of the farm quite a distance to another turning point rather than using the U-Turn. If I break the path outside the farm, and keep only the U-Turn, they use the U-Turn. So, the U-Turn works, but they are choosing not to use it. The U-Turn is a much shorter path than the other choice so not sure why they don't use it. HA!

Thanks!
Brian
