The Long Drive

5248km, still not at the end of the road.
How long is it? Or is it random?

That's the thing, I barely diverted from the road, I didn't track back or anything.

I think most seeds still don't load an "ending" to the road yet.

the road itself is exactly 5000km, but you'd only drive that distance if you were to drive down the exact middle of the road with 100% precision, which isn't really possible..
You will inevitable deviate about a meter per 100 meters, just driving down the road sticking close enough to the middle. Over 5K, those tiny deviations add up.
My save got me to 5600 before I saw the end.

That's strange. My last 5k it took me over 5600 as well... I can see the deviation adding, but i can't see another extra 500 just from stopping for stuff. I'd have to stop 500 times at 1 km each. I can't imagine me stopping more than every 25 km and wasting more than 1 km on avg. I suppose it's possible, but i'm not exactly the type to waste distance to enjoy the scenery lol.
My first 3 5k's i only averaged about 5100 ? Maybe the giant truck wheels are throwing the odometer off ?
It would be cool to have distance markers every 100 km or so just to make it feel a bit less grueling, not knowing exactly how much further you have to go. :)

The telephone masts are 100 meters apart.
Guess you could count them to see every 50,000 lol

Nicely done mate. I'm wondering if hitting rocks and tumbling off the road and having to find your way back to the road, as well as gather up parts that fell off, might add to the distance as well? I seem to hit rocks pretty damn often.

Does walking around add to the distance travelled as well? It wouldn't be much, but walking, deviations, crashing, etc could add up over a 5000km distance?

No it doesn't There is a broom in the beginning well that you can fly with. It's not coounted. Only driving.
