Xpress Rides Corp. has produced two helpful NL tutorials.

The first is how to create a turn, with a heartline.

And the second, is basically how to work the AHG, if, for some reason, you don't get Jimmy Yoshi's AHG approved topic in the sticky topics above.

For being a partial n00b I would usually totally flame this topic. but I must say those are some pretty good walk-throughs.

Your info isn't all correct, and your turn is pumpy.

To be honest, the heartlined turn tutorial is just plain worthless. I'm sorry, but not too often can that be used, and even less often will it prevail with smooth leads.

Jimmy made a perfect AHG tutorial. It's a step by step process on how to work it and its codes. Again, no disrespect, but yours appears SUPER crammed with infortmation on one page. That's going to be too intimidating for first time learners. You need to break it down.

http://www.nolimitsdevcenter.net/i33619 -what's that supposed to show?
You match the TRACK and a circle? Why would you do that?

Also, how does that look in a sideview? Could you add that?

BTW: Your explanation of the colorcodes in AHG is wrong. You might want to read the readme that comes with AHG. And your filter-suggestions are questionable at best.

Ehh, it's just something that I threw together in some spare time. When I find time to open up the dusty manual, I'll make a new one, probably a few pages long.

I'm kinda a color coding n00b still, but I'm no AHG stranger.

Actually dcs221, that turn is smooth. It has a nearly constant radius, and no pump I could notice.

I'll get to work in a few.........

I think smooth is a relative term here...what's smooth to you may not be smooth to me. Smooth also doesn't necessarily mean as correct or good as possible.

And at 3mph........

May not to you, but to me. I found it to be silky smooth. I looked at it a few weeks ago, and it was still smooth.
