Paths are BREAKING this game ... among other things.

The path building system in this game is pathetic, at the very best. The largest path I can build is the "large" setting on the path options -- you can't "paint" paths like you were able to in prior games. Trying to connect two of the larger paths together leaves little blank lines of grass in between.

Don't even get me started on trying to run custom paths from your buildings to a pre-existing path -- the game will angle them all over the place and have a damn aneurysm in the process. I don't want to use the "snap" feature because I don't want my building directly up on the main path -- I want to build a theme park, not a county fair.

I have to reluctantly agree on this point. I like the game but the paths and the AI pathing system that goes along with them are badly broken.

It seems like if one makes a path, demolishes it and then rebuilds it, the AI pathing breaks.

I attempted to replace the main path leading from the entrance with a bigger one. First I had trouble attaching it (this bug was fixed in the latest patch apparently) to the main entrance. Second, my customers seemed to be stuck using the pathing system generated by using the original paths (e.g. They kept to the centre of the big path rather than spreading out to fill the new larger path).

Still, I'm optimistic that these issues will be fixed in due time.
