Road Crafting question

Post by neoblackheart1 »

Got a question on Road Crafting. I am working on making a road and my first attempt the road just ended after around 4 or 5 signposts even though I had more. It said I was Waylaid. I understand rocks and trees block it but there wasn't any I checked and made sure. The second time I thought maybe I didn't put the signs close enough together so I started working on that. I made 4 in a straight line and it got stuck on the first post. Any suggestions?

Make sure the signs are rotated/oriented properly

you cant have them in a straight line with the arrows lining up to hit the roadsigns themselves.

The arrow represents where your character will automatically path to when it walks to that milestone. If you place them in the default configuration, your character will get blocked by the first or second roadsign because it's in the middle of the path. Rotate them (shift+arrow keys) at a 90 degree angle and you'll no longer have this problem. This should be made the default angle IMO.
