i've played both the wtcher 3 and red dead redemption 2 recently and they both have a very nice system where the player can make his horse auto follow roads... i'm curious if anyone has any ideas on how this is done?
i assume it's similar to patrol paths but must also use some sort of zone system too? as it can detect when you enter / leave a road instantly.
i imagine that would look a right mess in GG though
i guess it could also be done with a unique texture(s) and raycasting downwards to see if the player is on object with said texture or not (not possible in GG but is in other engines), though this probably still requires some pathing system to follow the road (and i'm not sure how it would work when reaching crossroads etc)
