[KNOWN ISSUE] Traffic does not re-start after blocked by tree

Post by Rahkiin »

- PC/Mac/PS4/XB1: All? Only tested on mac and dedi
- Vehicle/Tool/Model/Object: -
- Issue:
When traffic was blocked by a tree, they do not drive anymore after tree has been removed

- Single- or Multiplayer: Both
- Steps to reproduce:
Cut a tree and drop it over the road. Wait for traffic to come and stop for the tree. Remove the tree (by cutting it in pieces and moving them away).

Cut:

Hey Rahkiin!

Habe you checked if there are any collisions still active on that road? Like somehow the tree "lost" its collision in some way?

Hello x Lethian x,

to make this report, I tested the same thing on 2 different maps.
I came by this issue every time a tree drops on a road in GCV. I don't think there is something else in the way (other than the road object itself)

Also, i could walk there. But I'll have to confirm. 2min...

2min later: no collision after removing the logs. Not with player nor with car.

Alright. Interesting development:

I tabbed somewhere else, returned, and the cars were moving.
Then i dragged a tree-part in front of traffic, and they stopped. But when i removed it again, the traffic continued.
So the issue is only when the actual new tree falls on the road, I think

Hmm...this sounds strange indeed. I will have a look at it as soon as I can find the time.

Yes, could reproduce it, if I cut it in at least two pieces via chainsaw and remove it.

Traffic will keep going, if you just use a grapple to remove the whole tree. Will be marked in our to do list.
