Spent about two days wrestling with Fallout 2, just refuses to work. Gave up today and decided to jump into a game I know works. Pretty pissed because by the end I was just going around in circles.
>Get pinged by my old Nomad car
>Get in my car, auto drive.
>Nice and chill. Exactly as it should be.
>Some piece of shit decides to switch lanes right in front of me. Slam into the back of him.
>Autodrive disengages. He drives off.
Great.
>Resume autodrive.
>Car speeds up and slams into the back of a stationary car, killing the driver.
>Cops alerted, now I'm being chased.
>Autodrive disengages because combat
Great.
>Drive away, evade cops.
>Get close to the junkyard where my nomad car is.
>Autodrive has me diving across three to four lanes of traffic to hit an exit, stopping randomly in the road for no reason
>Get rear-ended more than once
>There's also a sandstorm so there's the sound of smashing debris constantly as, I suppose, its ambient sfx to show junk is moving around. Sounds like my car is constantly hitting shit.
>Autodrive gets me to the junkyard
>The wrong side of the junkyard
Great.
>Climb over a building to get to the quest trigger.
>Find my old car. Its floating in the air.
>Give the car to the girl who wants it. Whatever.
>Go to drive back. Put my car on the road. Engage Autodrive.
>Car proceeds to try to turn around and drive towards the dead end
>Speeds up, slams into junk yard debris.
>Gets stuck on nothing.

And then the autodrive kept disengaging whenever the car encountered traffic that was idling in front of a red light.

Gonna just walk away from my computer for the night.
