I've got one jeep successfully following waypoints but how do I get more than one jeep to
follow the same waypoints?

Like as in a convoy ?

I believe it CAN - But it would kind of be a problem because all the jeeps would stop on top of eachother...

yes - but at the end of the waypoint list they would all end up on top of eachother.

Yes and they can also start at different points and have different waypoint behaviours. (always keep at center or left/right)

How would you do this for the Jeep? I want to have another jeep patrolling next to the first
jeep but I don't know how to set it up to make the second jeep work I get the first jeep following the waypoints yes, but not the second.

Unfortunately the 1st jeep that's supposed to patrol the area, dosen't even move to start following its own separate nav points until the guards have finished their nav points
first. The guards are set on one way waypoints while the jeep is set on loop.

After the guards reach the last navpoint, then the Jeep will suddenly shake into life
and start following its own navpoints.

Weird

You could make waypoints for all the jeeps, and just cut one short of one another so they line up at the end.

Well guys In the end I had to set up a completely new set of nav points, waypoints for the second jeep because it would not follow the waypoints of the first jeep.

When I tested it. Only the first jeep moved around for a few minutes following it's waypoints while the second just stood motionless and I thought ahh back to the drawing board.

But a few minutes later of driving around in my own jeep, the second jeep sprung into life and started following its new waypoints. Finally the two jeeps are doing what I want it to
do. They're both moving.

Well that will have to do for now until I find out how to make the jeeps follow the same waypoint., for I spent the last three hours trying to get that method to work and couldn't.

But I know when I saved the map when I done the 1st jeep, that there was something
asmiss with the navitation points for when I reloaded in the map, they periodically messed up...... This is probably why I couldn't get two jeeps running around on the same nav path and could only get it to work on separate paths.
