TRAFFIC GUIDE: Traffic Guide
If using Content Manager / TRACKDAY mode / AI Flood
Select Trackday mode.
Select a Traffic layout.
AI Strength. Use around 90%. Never use less than 80% AI Strength, things will get buggy.
AI Aggression. Use a moderate amount of aggression. A higher setting means the AI cars wont flinch as much when cars get close.
Select a number of AI opponents to use as traffic (To start only use 5 -10 AI or things can get buggy). If you want to increase this later, that's up to you.
Turn off Fuel Consumption. Otherwise the traffic will run out of fuel and keep re-spawning out of fuel causing obstructions.
Turn off Damage. May help car mods with poorly setup suspensions, as at start of a session Assetto Corsa 'drops' the cars on to the road.
If random glitches happen, stick to using default Kunos cars to troubleshoot, add mod cars one at a time...
If Content Manager / AI Flood still cause you issues, revert to RACE mode. You'll need to run more AI opponents but it will use default Kunos AI routines. Alternatively try different versions of CSP as some versions are buggy. Consult Content Manager / CSP documentation if you find any!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
If using Stock Assetto Corsa / RACE mode
Select Race mode. (Quick Race in stock AC)
Select a Traffic layout.
AI Strength. Use around 90%
AI Aggression. Use a moderate amount of aggression. A higher setting means the AI cars wont flinch as much.
Select a number of AI opponents to use as traffic (You'll need to run 20+ AI to see light traffic)
Pacific Coast is 13 miles (Per lane, 1 lane in each direction is effectively a 26 mile long, 4m wide road)
For example 26 AI will equal one car per mile in either direction. If you have a slow computer don't attempt to run an excessive amount of AI for your machine. To give your CPU an easier time I'd recommend Trackday mode, and make sure you read the 'General Tip' below.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
General Tip: If you get poor performance in Assetto Corsa, make sure you're using mod cars that all have proper LODs (something like... *LOD_B.kn5, *LOD_C.kn5, *LOD_D.kn5)
The top quality car mods here on Race Department will have these LODs. Random mod cars / ripped cars / poor quality mods might not.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Drive Tastefully! Always respect other drivers (Including the AI). Never do that no hesi :poop: on real roads. Hesitate! Save it for the track.
Pacific Coast Highway 1 (PCH) - California
This is a 23km section of real roads on California Highway 1, one of the great all-American roads on the scenic West Coast, and is widely considered among the best driving roads in the world.
The area is known as Big Sur, and this route winds along the rugged California coastline (from Cape San Martin to Ragged Point), and is one of the States’ most dangerous highways. Driving can be intense with narrow, single lanes and some sections having 700ft drops and no guard rails at the edge, leaving little room for error.
The Southbound section is considered the most ideal to drive, as you are on the ocean side the entire way, allowing unobstructed views of the jagged coastline below and the Pacific ocean off to the horizon.
