Hi,

Depending on your scenario, you could animate the object’s controllers. If you choose this approach, make sure to apply an XForm modifier to your custom object and animate that instead of its Position/Rotation/Scale controllers - ForestPack overrides those during scattering calculations.Another option is to use 'help surfaces' to control the car placement, as shown in this post. You may also find our Parking Cars tutorial useful.

I hope that helps.

Best regards,
