Another Turn Signal Issue [NOTED]

#1 Post by PW4056 » 27 Mar 2016 10:18

Another issue with the turn signal. In the United States, truck turn signals do not automatically cancel. You're supposed to have the turn signal on throughout the entirety of the turn, and if the turn signal cancels automatically, the trailer would still be in the middle of the turn.

Honestly - if they actually put this (hardcoded) in the game, as a European driver I'd be soooooo frustrated to the point of possibly not playing any more.
It really would KILL it for me.

I think you might be able to mod this by setting steering indicator cutoff angle to 0...?? Maybe.

Why not a checkbox in the gameplay options? Both will be happy.

And as an American driver, I get frustrated when I try to manually turn it off, only to find out that instead, I am just turning it on. That said, having it available as an option sounds like a good compromise to me.

First truck I ever drove when I took the license had no automatic indicator switch off

It's just a habbit nice to have you'll soon have it
When exiting a roundabout IRL the automation does not always switch the indicator off
Lane changing you need to swith it off manually etc

YES!! I would love to see this. Just put it in options, "Self-Cancelling turn signals", default to "enabled", then we old-school American drivers can disable it. :D

As a former owner of an old-skool Citroen (CX Safari - what was I thinking?), I agree.
