Trucks sometimes get into places they shouldn't be able to

Bad behavior
lowstrife [github] · 4 years ago

About once an hour with 60 trucks, one of them will randomly somehow make it's way into a completely enclosed area.

The belts in this picture have not been modified or touched for hours, but somehow this truck just showed up there. It's close, but not within range, of a warehouse it could have tried to make a delivery to. But the warehouse is on the other side of 2 assemblers. I'm not sure why it was there, nor how it got through the belt.

I haven't seen this, but I have seen trucks get stuck when there is nothing blocking them. This used to happen when I blocked them with ghost belts, but now they seem to drive through ghosts.

I think what happens, is thay are unable to back up. In a tight space they switch to a "turn around mode" where the hitboxes are ignored or disabled. Basically moving in a small circle or rotating. Then they are switched back to normal drive mode and the belts hitboxes are active or enabled again. That I believe is why they get stuck. There needs to be a mode where they can drive backwards.

I think I found something which may be related.

One of these buildings had the logistics capacity enabled - which I noticed was causing some weird u-turn behavior after trucks would drop off their loads at this building. They will drive through and clip basically anything to make this u-turn. Perhaps it's related.

Yeah, I've had maybe 10-15 instances of trucks doing this. It's not particularly annoying as you can just pay unity to get them out, but it's definitely weird!

Trucks are ignoring this part of the bollard when driving around, they drive through it and earlier I had a truck somehow get stuck inside after it was setup to prevent this issue.

I have seen this a lot. They will also drive over corners of the retaining walls.
