Custom Route Creation Tips?

When creating a custom route…

…does the exact line that I drive become the racing line for those who then drive the event with full line assistance?

…do my braking and throttle inputs determine the braking and throttle indicators for those with racing line assistance?

… do the Drivatar vehicles deviate from my driven line (and if so by how much)?

I’m currently creating my routes at a steady 50mph but I’ve not yet struck the balance between a realistic driving line for those using line assistance and a realistic racing line for the Drivatars to follow. Setting a nice racing line for players to follow seems to result in the Drivatars cutting corners and smashing / getting stuck on obstacles.

  1. Yes, the line you drive becomes the raceline showing to others.

  2. Yes again, your break zones will typically be shown as this in the race. Remember though drivatars will choose to ignore them and car type along with speed will also play part on if and when they show to others.

  3. They can drive on any part of road and or off-road land. They are programmed to follow the line created, but can choose to ignore this and drive anywhere. I’ve even seen them shortcut at times, so you have really no control over this aspect besides the fact they typically stick to the raceline for guidance. How and when they choose other routes etc no one knows for sure the algorithm used for them.
