AI Recorder - Waypoints inconsistent with HUD, incorrect waypoint recording
Hello, I would like to sum few bugs that I have find with AI Recorder.
Waypoint numbering inconsistent with HUD
During recording, waypoints numbering starts with Waypoint 1. But when you use HUD to view path, point numbers starts with 0. (Waypoint 1 is matching point 0)
Waypoint deletion inconsistent with HUD
Best to use an example. You have Waypoints 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. HUD would show you path with points 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.
If you delete Waypoint 3, you will have Waypoints 1, 2, 4, 5. But HUD would show you path with points 0, 1, 2, 3. HUD path will be reindexed, Waypoints will not. That will make it very hard to delete other Waypoints.
Incorrect waypoint recording
Waypoints are recorded before the ship stops. This can be easily tested, try to record path in a right angle -> first fly up, wait till ship stops, then fly forward. This leads to problem where recorded path isnt precise.
This might seem like a little problem, but! In engineering precision is very important. Many great inventions in the game such as 3D printers, ship parking, flying in tight space and mining require precise movement.
In general I belive you want to record a new point when:
1. grid speeds becomes 0,
2. grid changes direction of movement
I have the same bug
Hello, Michal!

Hello, Michal!
We have an update concerning one of the issues reported in this thread regarding incorrect waypoint recording and adding waypoints when grid speeds become 0, or when the grid changes direction of movement.
After discussing this topic internally, we would like you to know that since players can manually add waypoints in the Recorder for specific cases, having the AI Recorder automatically create waypoints in the above-mentioned cases would generate a lot of unwanted waypoints, which could significantly impact gameplay.
Therefore, we have decided not to move forward with implementing such a feature/function in the game at this time.
However, please be aware that the issue related to waypoint deletion is still under review and is being actively worked on. This thread will remain in the 'Reported' status until further updates are available.

I understand, since waypoints can be added manually this is a low prio issue.
I was mostly curious if waypoint recording imprecision is part of the bigger issue or it is implemented as intended.
