Short description:	Adds paths for traffic
IDE Sections: 2DFX • AMAT • ANIM • CARS • HIER • MLO • OBJS PATH • PEDS • TANM • TOBJ • TREE • TXDP • WEAP

path is a section in the item definition file in Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It is used to add paths for foot and vehicular traffic. Path nodes in GTA III are attached to existing objects in a similar manner to 2dfx. In GTA Vice City, the format of this section is similar to its IPL counterpart but entries will crash the game because of an imposed limit. Use a limit adjuster like VC Limit Adjuster and increase the number of treadables to use this section.

	-1	integer	Always -1, used as a delimiter
C	ModelName	string	Associated to existing model name defined in objs or tobj section
Node
A	NodeType	integer	0 = Null 1 = External 2 = Internal
B	NextNode	integer	-1 = Do not link to any other node in this group 0 to 11 = Link to this node number in this group
