Feature Request - maybe - Follow a route while recording another with an offset

[jiggin]

Hi Team,

Firstly, Great work as always. you can't farm without AutoDrive!

I think I have perhaps dreamt of this feature, but could swear I have done it.

in the instance of a 4 lane 2 way road, i.e. 2 lanes in each direction, I have recorded the middle 2 lanes using the 2 lane 2 way record option, but for the outer 2 lanes, is it possible to put a waypoint the end of the middle lane and record a 4.5m offset for the outer lane only, while AutoDrive follows the middle lane?

I'd be in favor of this as well.

I was wondering about something similar. Just assign an offset for a vehicle, wide load could be closer to center of road compared to a standard vehicle.

How many maps with 4-lane roads are there that you need such a function for, and for which dual recording is not sufficient?

I can say that I need special maneuvering areas for road trains or long vehicles (similar to Borgoult planters). I would also like to see optional lanes for long and wide vehicles, just like the addition of second way (yellow) lanes.

@huseyinsayar there will be no function to assign any specializations to waypoints.
The programming effort would be too high, it would make everything significantly more complicated, and the effort required for path calculations would also increase enormously, with the engine being the limiting factor here.

As I mentioned just a thought that popped up in my head. I love making the courses, and it's the first thing I do when I start a new map save, and I've run into it a few times.

Keep up your amazing work, we can't play without you, so I don't want you to add things that will make it more difficult for you!

Thank you for your answer. Perhaps the game engine in FS28 will allow you to do that.
