Hello virtual farmer!

I forked the original AutoDrive Course Editor to address specific needs for my use of the original tool.

This fork is intended for my personal use, but I'm sharing it here for anyone who has similar needs, or wants to apply particular fixes (e.g. out of bounds nodes, or node elevation). Be sure to create backups of the configurations files (if you're editing a savegame this would be AutoDrive_config.xml and vehicles.xml).

Upstream version: 1.0.7 by KillBait

Additional Features

  • Align nodes horizontally/vertically and distribute them evenly along that axis
  • Flip selected nodes across the horizontal or vertical axis
  • Table display of nodes for quick navigation and node info (I mainly use this to navigate to a particular marker by double-clicking its row, but also to get quick info on multiple nodes, like checking the heights)

Features merged upstream

  • Centre out-of-bounds nodes (can then be deleted, etc.)
  • Keep Vehicle Parking Destinations aligned with markers (when deleting markers in the original, the parking destinations can become associated with the wrong marker)

Usage

General

I assume that you're already familiar with this editor, otherwise you should first read its readme.md. This fork uses the original repository for map images.

Java

A Java version greater than 11 is required. (You need the JDK, as there's no JRE after Java 8)
Current Java versions can be downloaded here and installation instructions can be found here

Starting the AutoDrive Course Editor

Download the latest release of AutoDriveEditor.zip.

The editor can be started multiple ways.

  1. Using the supplied CMD file: Start AutoDrive Editor.cmd.
  2. Directly from a command line: java -jar -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m .\AutoDriveEditor.jar
  3. Directly from a command line: java -jar .\AutoDriveEditor.jar (Use this only for importing map DDS files that fail using normal run arguments)

The editor will automatically create a log file autoDriveEditor.log, which can be used for later troubleshooting. The log file has a maximum size of 20MB and a maximum of 3 files are then created.
