What we know

The infrastructure blog describes route points on land, water and in the air. ↗

Routing a vehicle near maintenance infrastructure can be useful if that facility has spare capacity. ↗

The Highlights blog describes selecting and moving stops directly in the world. ↗

From information to action

How to approach the decision

Editorial planning advice based on the confirmed systems above.

  1. Inspect the intended route before inserting a waypoint.
  2. Use the smallest set of points that expresses the route you need.
  3. Check the complete return path and maintenance access after changing it.

A mistake to avoid

A waypoint cannot repair disconnected infrastructure or create available maintenance capacity.

Verify at launch

What still needs live data

Exact numerical values, release-build menus and reproducible gameplay tests will be added only after verification.

Exact values and operating advice are added after testing against a recorded game build. Check the source date before relying on a number.
