Quick Question about vehicles

Postby Debsy » Mon Jul 12, 2010 9:17 am

I ran out of gas on the road, will I still continue on at an incredibly slow rate? Or does it just stop me?

Even more awkward: Your ringtone being "I Will Survive"

The most awkward: Coming back after a 10+ year hiatus and swearing I'd never come back. :twisted:

You should be able to "push your car" to the next location.

Not a hundred percent sure, but yes, about walking pace.

But I don't have to actually DO anything, though, right? Or is there something I need to click. And also... walking speed is not bad. Esp if I'm at 95% lol

Well, you might try calling Triple A, but you should be fine if you just keep sitting in your car and wait for it to arrive in the next location.

A related question. While on the road, what is the visibility range? That is if I am at 50% what is the range over which I can see other characters and interact with? Is it for example, like 45%-55%? Or is it in some other units?

Of course you can't use the percentage since that is relative to the length of the road, which varies. People are considered near at 5, which I assume to be pixels, but I'm not sure if that's for visibility or hitting.

You'll also be reminded that the vehicle is out of fuel every hour. Which is REALLY annoying.

Expect to take 20 days to travel a road which previously took 1 or 2 if you're going to continue pushing it between towns.
