Description
Leave a colorful "Snail Trail" behind your vehicle!

This mod visualizes your car's path in real-time, drawing a 3D trail that shows exactly where you've been. But it's more than just a line—it's a data visualization tool. The color of the trail changes based on your driving inputs, giving you instant feedback on your performance.

Features

• Real-Time 3D Trail: Draws a dynamic 3D trail behind your vehicle, now with two render modes!
  
  
• Full UI Control: Comes with a dedicated UI App ("Realtime Trail Settings") that lets you customize everything on the fly.
  
  
• Intelligent Show/Hide: Uncheck "Show Trail" to hide the trail. The mod will continue to record your path in the background! Check the box again to instantly reveal the path you took while it was hidden.
  
  
• [New] Pause Calculation: A dedicated "Pause/Resume" button lets you stop recording new points. Perfect for repositioning your car or getting a specific screenshot without resetting the trail.
  
  
• Dual Coloring Modes: Choose your preferred data visualization:
  
  • Acceleration Mode (Default): The trail turns Green when you accelerate, Red when you brake, and Blue when coasting.
    
    
  • Absolute Speed Mode: The trail fades from Blue (slow) to Green (medium) to Red (fast) based on your vehicle's speed.
    
• Fully Configurable:
  
  • Render Mode: Choose between "Cylinder" (3D tube) or "Circle" (sphere points).
    
    
  • Show/Hide Trail: Toggle the trail's visibility (calculation continues in the background).
    
    
  • Pause/Resume Calculation: Toggle the trail's recording state.
    
    
  • Reset Trail: A dedicated button to clear the trail history and start fresh.
    
    
  • Radius Control: Independent sliders for "Cylinder Radius" and "Circle Radius".
    
    
  • Trail Length: Set the maximum number of points (100 to 10,000) to control how long the trail lasts.
    
    
  • Trail Density: Set the minimum distance (0.1m to 10.0m) between points to control trail resolution.
    
    
  • Max Speed: (For Absolute Speed Mode) Set the speed (up to 556 km/h) that corresponds to "maximum" (red) color.
    

This mod is perfect for analyzing your driving lines, making cinematic videos, or just having fun seeing where you're going by looking at where you've been.
