Paths

Paths are special structures of waypoints which define AI spawns (such as PEDs, Cars and Boats) and the way the AI Unit takes. They only control the appearance and other information about the AI.

All GTA games after GTA3 use different paths systems. GTA III uses a IDE-Related paths-system which binds paths to certain objects. GTA Vice City uses groups of mapped paths defined in IPLs. GTA San Andreas and GTA 4 use a collection of binary files which are linked with each other.
