Thread: Should Vehicles have autopilots?

Should the vehicles have autopilot? I mean it would not change much for the vehicles or the player to use. But they just seem primitive. Like cruise control. We have technology to make these. We have GPS in game why not autopilot? Radial menu, select input loc into nav aid. And go.


Now that I type it it seems trivial. And of no use but I still think it would be cool. What do you guys think?

Thats what I was thinking as well but I hate when I take a 3K ride and at the start I gotta stop and take care of the kids or something and I over shoot where I am going. But your right.



Hehe how about an MP3 player that artisians can make? You have an MP3 player folder in the game folder and can only access it via a device artisians make?

Num Lock is easy enough, IMHO.

last i checked, an autopilot keeps you going in a direction (numlock) but a plane on autopilot that is pointing toward he ground doesn't swerve to avoid it now does it?

Forgive me I'm an autopilot ignoramus. How I passed my speeder test I'm unsure.


I'd love a set of furry dice for the windshield though.

Yes I'd love a droid chauffeur.


Also, what kind of fun are we talking about, if you're out to play monopoly, can I play too?

Darn, pine tree thingie, I want one real bad. C'mon Devs you know you want us to grind on fuzzy dice and air fresheners instead of survey tools.
