SC4Path files define where the game's automata (Sims, vehicles and trains) travel on transit networks. These files are associated with a corresponding gridsquare containing a transit network by a file ending in the same instance ID (IID) as that of the particular network piece involved. An ortho section of road, for instance, which ends in IID ______________ has a matching SC4Path file ending in that same IID. For puzzle pieces, the SC4Path file ends in the same IID as the corresponding S3D file in the piece.

[add detail here]

If a path file is not included for a transit network it will cause the game to lag when dragging the network, this can be avoided by using a path file which contains no paths, but still has a header.
