[anasf23s]

Can I get some talks here about Adaptive Cruise Control in 1.44 open beta?

@anasf23s, I did notice some new variables in the game profile's config.cfg file, "g_acc" and "g_acc_sense", which seem like Adaptive Cruise Control. But I didn't see anything about it mentioned in the features list on the blog so I assume it is work-in-progress.

It's discussed in the 1.44 thread and yes is active, but still work in progress. There's also an emergency brake parameter.

@abasstreppas I'm talking about Adaptive Cruise Control hidden feature in 1.44 beta

@josh0247 Yes, I know that new config line too from some YouTuber. I hope SCS doesn't change their API code related to cruise control, I ever read somewhere that Adjustable Cruise Control can work because some API code from SDK that open for third-party software.

@Madkine But I want discuss that here, because, imagine we will get Adjustable Cruise Control that can auto adjust speed limit & Adaptive Cruise Control will handle the speed to the car in front of you. That will be perfect match

Wondering why SCS hide this new line code, is that ever happen before? Or that mean, no guarantee it will be implemented in 1.44 update?

[Madkine]

As per their comments, it's still experimental.

Hi.

I couldn't find much info.

Can someone kindly explain me what this is all about? What does adjustable CC compared to the ingame adjustable CC?
I do not really understand the difference. And looking at the setup procedure, I don't want to go through this without knowing the benefits/difference Good lord is that a long procedure

Thanks in advance

This thread is not really about the ACC application itself, it is only a place to share update files for people that already have the ACC application. Each time SCS updates their game executable file a new update to ACC is needed. The original thread about the ACC application was removed from the forum by request of the author. If you wish you can read some of the documentation from the source code repository here. Development of the software was discontinued several years ago.

And looking at the setup procedure, I don't want to go through this without knowing the benefits/difference Good lord is that a long procedure

To which "setup procedure" are you referring? The "Apply game update files to ACC" procedure or "Tutorial for generating your own ACC game update files" procedure? Everybody who uses the ACC application needs to know the first procedure, the second procedure is only if you want to generate your own update files. To date I or another user have been providing the update files.

@Duke49th And to answer your questions:

Cruise control enables you to set a speed for your vehicle to travel at
Adjustable cruise control is the same except that your vehicle also reacts to the speed of the vehicle in front of you and will slow down and speed up as needed without you needing to do anything.
