Things that have been plaguing the AI in the past:
1. lack of operation in accordance with real world physics (... and I don't mean chocolate X-Lax tablets to make things move inside the bowels): braking/acceleration has been much too abrupt for train speed/weight/size...a heavy freight train should take up to a mile to stop from 50 to zero under normal braking circumstances on a level grade
2. reacting to yellow/green signals too far in advance: AI should be so programmed to not even be aware of a yellow, green or red signal until in range of normal human vision, then once in human eyeshot, it should brake normally, not put on the emergency brake to slow down
3. slowing down/suddenly shutting down the throttle while passing a trackmark during Drive Via. Imagine if your autonomous car did the same thing while passing a GPS waypoint? Hopefully N3V software developers will have taken some lessons from those who program autonomous vehicles.
4. lack of realistic enginesounds while AI is at the gas pedal
In short, if AI were to behave more like the real world, it would be much more enjoyable to some in this game.
What might you add to your wishlist of AI improvements?
