Factorio set place in the future. It should have cars and tanks that's smart enough to drive itself.

Automated drones deliberately fly and trains deliberately stick to the tracks so that they don't have to run a pathing AI. Pathing kills CPUs very fast.

I was only thinking about how horrible it is to drive in the game, with all the crashes and stuff.

If I can focus on more important stuff like getting from point A to point B rather than not crashing, than I could do other cooler things.

You could build roads and have the cars drive on the roads. But then you've just reinvented more compact trains.
