Add this to an object, reset scripts, and then click to start adding points (ADD point).
At the end of the route , select save card. This will create a notecard
Then select RIDE to test it.
The notecard "RIDE" contains the information about the ride.
You can modify the third column between the '|' to change the speed at which the ride will approach the specific point
You can optionally change the fourth column to contain a number larger than zero. Then the ride will stop for that number of seconds at the specific point

Hi :) Wondering if anyone found a way of getting a vehicle using this script over a sim crossing?

I found a work around for making pauses. It involves making each journey its own note card, then having a script at each stop that senses the arrival of the vehicle and waits for a period before saying the name of the next note card to load on the channel set in the vehicle script.
So you make the way points from the start to the first stop then save card. Then clear the points and continue making way points to the next stop, then save card. Do this for all the stops. You will then have a bunch of note cards that you can start with a chat command. You then just need a script that detects when the vehicle has arrived. This can be a sensor or a collision. Once the vehicle is detected, you set a delay before saying the name of the next note card to start on the chat channel you are using in the vehicle script.
I haven't fully tested this, but I have started the vehicle by making a prim say the name of the note card when I touch it, and I have made it generate multiple note cards too. So I'm confident this should work.
EDIT: just uploaded a simple script to help with pausing at waypoints

You can change the fourth column in the notecard RIDE to create a stop. Enter the number of seconds to stop at each specific point (0 = no stopping)

I thought that the last number was not working after reading the comments below. I will have to give it a try. Thanks!
Though I quite like separating out the stops into separate note cards as it makes adjusting a route at a later date a lot less bothersome. You can simply redo a single section without having to redo the entire route.
Thanks for the really handy script, I have had a lot of fun with it.

This script is awesome! Many thanks for it. I wonder if it would be possible to stop the sound while the vehicle is making a stop. And how this could be done.

We have got the script to work for a bus service round our var region - but how do we make the bus stop, wait for 10 seconds and carry on?
Column 4 is supposed to be the time but it doesnt work ie
| | 10 | 10 or | | 10 | 10 | - which is correct????????????????????
Thanks Karen xx

Hi Karen,
Just an example ive used to one of my vehicles in my sim:
x,y,z | 8 | 0
x,y,z | 8 | 10
1o coordinate: speed is 8.. last number is 0, so no stop
2o coordinate: speed is 8. last number is 10, so it stops for 10 seconds.
Hope it has been clarified now :)

EDIT: the script now does support a stop at each point. The last column in the notecard is the number of seconds to stop. 0 = no stopping

Hi Jimmy many thanks for quick reply to Karen and me. And a big shout out for your amazing garden centre :). We were both using the syntax you clarified but it doesnt seem to work on zetaworlds. The suggestion from OSW above does work but that stops at every way point. I guess we will just have to slow the bus right down at every stop (have stop between two way points where speed =1 on each).. Then passengers cabn run for bus like we do in RL :)

Hm.. weird.. Wondering why it doesnt work..So... to be sure if it script itself not working, come to my sim ALFHEIM , drop me an IM (send me a notecard as IMs normally got capped). and will send u one of my vehicles i have already script so u test on ur grid..

Hm.. didnt get anything. u sure u sent to my av from AMV Grid (i have alts in some other grids but i barely log in on these)
anyway, came to ur sim and send u the folder with scripts (modified versions) and the a car with coordinates to test.

How can I stop other people from accessing the script menu? I have put this excellent script in a rowing boat that just drifts around as a drifting ferry to different places in the sim. However people can stop it and leave it stopped .. how can I resolve this? Thank you great script.

Hi Spax script works great but am wondering just how many points can be added is there a limit?

This script is awesome! I built a lift on Menthe in Neverworld Grid to go up a rock face. I have two lifts next to each so i had to change the integer channel of one of them so they don't go up and down at the same time. One lift is in the ground level start and the other at the top level start. I love it! Thank you very much!!

Hi! How can I recall a vehicle with a script? I made a ski lift but when the ski car is at the top... I need a button to recall it when someone is at the bottom or how to get it to pause for like 60 seconds in between stops..

This script has no recall function. It d interesting though. About pause its the last value after the slash (/).. by default, on notecard, its all set to 0 (zero). values are in seconds.
