Car spawns in the wall near gas station in Paradiso

0:55 car spawns in the concrete fence wall. PLease, fix the mapping

I need to rework the way I calculate if a spawn location is suitable or not.

Here's how it currently works...

This is the nodes in that location:


It selects whatever node it selects, and first will try and spawn the vehicle on the left side of the road, then the right, then the middle.
It will reject a spawn location if there is an obstacle ABOVE it, which is fine if there's a solid wall to the sides, but with a thin wall like this, there's no obstacle above unless the position ends up being inside the tiny wall.

Instead of doing that, I need to do a line-of-sight ray trace from the middle to the side, to check there's no obstacles that way.
I'll change it up and it should work better.
