i am currently making a cart ride game with suspension, i want to make a track that includes a turn but its diagonal but i just cant get it right, ive tried archimedies, and gap fill but it makes it look really janky and not what i want, in the image below shows the idea of how i want my tracks to be like, is there a plugin i should know about?
another question is how do they turn the curved track back to a straight track without it breaking?
Since i am a professional builder, i would probably use a plugin called “Archimedes”, it lets you easily create circles/curves
That plugin cannot create a curve like this
Any follow ups on this? Im also intrested in what game that screenshot came from
Not quite sure on this one, but maybe It could’ve been executed by using Bezier Curves?
I think It could be it.
cart ride delivery service im pretty sure
Hello, i am someone else suffering attempting to find a plugin for this, if someone could make a plugin that makes bezier curves (WITH TILT AND ROLL) and allows us to use our own custom “rail” models, it would help a bunch. 
i had this same issue and i ended up making my own solution. i have something that works thats (almost) literally this but the ONE thing thats preventing me from finishing it is connecting the actual track pieces together. i honeslty have no idea how ill do that, as im making this for both a cart ride game and a theme park sandbox game. if ur smart at math n stuff pls lmk
Can you share the plugin for this?

its not a plugin its my own script but this is the code for it but youll have to adjust it to add ur own models to each bezier point. youll need bhristt’s bezier curve module. also this is an old version tho, i can’t sent the new one cause i changed how it works more so to fit the needs for making rollercoaster tracks than cart ride tracks. ill sent that one too if you’d really like but i cant guarantee it can work to make cart ride tracks
you can adapt stravant’s resizealign to work with your plugin pretty easily, make a module out of it
i did end try that but gapfill did not smoothly connect them so i ended up just modyifying the script so that it made a part that touches the 2 points in between them on the left and ride side but i realized how useful it could be for my theme park thing so ive more so adapted it for that instead
The video shows it working, but using parts to bridge the gap is still just a linear fix. If you’re already using a Bezier module, you should be calculating the CFrame at the curve segments directly instead of trying to patch gaps between straight pieces.
