Steering

#1 Post by Nick2332f » 13 Jun 2021 14:10

Hi,

In real life, the steering wheel of the trucks move more than the game.

I understand why the games steering isnt real, maybe because of the logitech steering wheel but if you are not going to add real steering option for players like me with mouse steering or keyboard then you could make it like Tourist Bus did, speed dependent steering, where it moves soo much it feels real, kind of. If you play tourist bus and have that option on you know what im talking about.

Also when im playing and im moving fov to 100 and seat back the dashboard looks bad, not really readable on max graphics. Is there any way to increase the quality so i can see it from further away like when you are zoomed in?

If you mean rotation degrees, there's a mod for the default trucks

As for rotation speed, you can increase/lower it in settings

This is an old request I have to SCS Software.
To me it is a big immersion breaking to turn the steering so little. 😄🤔
In OMSI, per example, some buses do 6 complete turns from lock to lock.
The Mercedes-Benz buses we have here are based on rigid truck chassis and they have 1800° rotation from lock to lock.

I wish they just add some options in the menu. At least 540°(1,5 turns) 900°(2,5 turns), 1440°(4 turns), 1800°(5 turns) and 2160°(6 turns), per example.
This way players could choose what better fit what they want from the game. More comfort or realism.

I'm planning to build a custom steering wheel and I would like to make it with 1800° or maybe 2700°. Probably by just moding a regular 900° with gears or pulleys.

Mods are good but not as good as the developers work. They sometimes stop working or cause some sort of instability...

Gean, you should really take a look at this channel: https://youtu.be/3UVCIzUxDpI

1800° steering is not possible with present day mass produced steering wheels. The maximum a wheel can turn is 1080. There is no point in making a game with 1800 just to please less than 1% of the player base.
