"Please drive home" command?

[Selva]

Bambi is my current "follower." We found a car. Is there a way to tell her to drive it back to base or will I have to walk back here later?

AI squaddies cannot drive, feature are in wishlist now for some time but developers maybe have things better to do first,

good gaming

You're gonna have to drive it home yourself. If you already have a car, you have to leave your current car at home and walk all the way back to this new car you found and then drive it home.

The only other workaround is to play in co-op and then your friend can drive the other car home.

Also, as a minor warning for the future, the game's follower A.I. doesn't know how to get more than 2 followers into a single car, even if it has 4 or 6 seats. If you somehow end up with 3 followers due to a quest, when you get into a car, the 3rd follower will not get into the car despite the fact that there is an empty seat for him.

You need to drive off and make that follower run the way, but thankfully the combat A.I. for followers and zombies are turned off when they're outside your view distance so you don't have to worry about your follower dying along the way as long as there's nothing between you and him when he finally reenters your view distance.

The followers leave much to be desired.

A cool end game feature would be to be able to clear wrecks from the roads and enable survivors to drive for you. Because there is no way they gonna get the AI right to keep them from getting stuck 74 times on the way from point A to point B.

Actually, from a coding standpoint, that's the easy part. Making them ->not<- perfect at driving is trickier... if the player can see them.

@Artifical, dono if you just encountered a bug, but even in SOD1 you coud really fill a car with AIs, and its still possible in SOD2 as well, just got it a few days ago that i got my sidekick and 2 followers from the ex soldiers enclave (for a quest from them) , and all entered the car (upgraded army truck) fine.
