Death Stranding 2: How To Use Auto Drive

The Self-Driving Support APAS Enhancement is one of the useful features in Death Stranding 2, enabling vehicles to auto-drive. 

Vehicles play a crucial role in Death Stranding 2, making cargo deliveries faster and more effective. While manually driving across facilities can be exhilarating, it often becomes repetitive over time. Did you know there is actually a way to make the process smoother and automated once you start building roads? Thankfully, Death Stranding 2 features an auto-driving option, removing the need for manual driving. 

Self-Driving Support is one of the APAS enhancements that allows vehicles to drive themselves under certain circumstances. The in-game description of the enhancement is vague, leaving many players confused about how to use it. This guide explains everything you need to know about Self-Driving Support APAS Enhancements and how to use the auto-drive feature in Death Stranding 2.

How To Activate Self-Drive in Death Stranding 2

Before getting into the how-to activation part, it’s important to understand the conditions for activation. The Self-Driving Support enhancement only works on the road. To be precise, you need to drive the vehicle within the center of the road at a certain speed without triggering the boost. Here is how it works:

• Drive your vehicle onto the road.
• Position your vehicle at the centre of the road.
• Accelerate the vehicle and maintain a consistent speed without boosting.
• When doing so, a flow of chevrons will appear on the rear plate. 

Once fully charged, you will see the text ‘ASST. DRV. BOOT’ on the rear plate, followed by ‘ASST. DRV.’ This indicates that assisted drive/auto-drive is activated. The ‘Auto-Camera’ option popping up on the screen also indicates that the self-driving is enabled. Once it is active, just release the accelerator and let the vehicle do the honors. Your vehicle uses the road’s power supply and takes you to your destination automatically, as long as the road is connected.
