# How to use Vehicles AI

The Vehicle AI is very similar to the enemy AI in operation, it also uses Waypoint Path and calculates paths through NavMesh. The Vehicle AI can be used on any vehicle in the JUTPS Vehicle class.

There's no secret, just add the Vehicle AI script to your vehicle and configure the variables.
