Sweet work, the collision is nice (I can not wait till you add in explosions with the AI or the road :P ).

In case you're wondering about progress, I've been really overloaded with schoolwork lately. I have started coding the map scanning routines for the AI, though. ;)

sorry to hear, glad there's still some minor progress, though. I am curious how the AI will be, especially on tracks with lot of curves and few space between road segments

I'm unsure since he worked more on his variable wall height raycaster and a secret project as well (that only IRC users know)

This looks fantastic!  I have been aching to make a racing game in java, but I couldn't come up with a suitable 3D engine.  But, seeing as it can be done on a Calculator, means that it should be more than doable in java.  I look forward to seeing this project finished!

Definitely doable in any language. It is even possible in Alice!

Any updates or is this going on hold for now?

IT'S ALIIIIVEEE!

So yeah, I decided to ditch my plan for the Artificial Intelligence, because it was getting way too complicated (and it probably wouldn't work anyway). Instead, I'll use the tried-and-true waypoint method. So, I decided to get the AI to be able to aim itself at a point. The best way to test that, in my opinion, was to have a moving target - that is, the human-controlled car. And it seems to work! The artificial intelligence is using the exact same controls as the human - left, right, and 2nd. :)

If the AI will be constantly targeting the player, won't the player always be in the lead (or the AI will be backtracking to reach the player)?

Nah, that was just to make sure it worked. I'm going to use actual waypoints later.

YesSSssss!!   This is my favorite projects of yours Calc84 ;D

How were you doing the AI?  In my 3D racer (inspired by this!) I was able to make a very effective Ai quite simply.
