I believe I have found the problem, obviously I presume a lot of people use the auto driving settings to complete event lab races.
After using these settings after one race all of my cars are now handling appallingly, this must be the trigger to cause this bug.
UPDATE solution
Simply restarting the game eliminates this problem, it seems to me (in my personal experience at least) that the games AI of controlling your car gets transferred to your own control of the car once you have used the autonomous steering and braking. Which apparently is atrocious.
Hello all.
I’ve been going through a lot of tuning on some cars but I’ve found 3 so far which don’t seem to respond like they should do?
Three cars I have found so far, BMW 1M, pagani huayra fe, Aston Martin Valhalla. The issue seems to be when trying to turn I can clearly see the front wheels turning but causing huge understeer, almost as if you were to put 100% throttle in a corner with a front wheel drive car.
The Aston Martin I have also tested in default form without any modifications and it still does this, I’m pretty certain that it shouldn’t handle this way in stock form at all which leads me to presume there could be a bit of a physics bug?
Ps the bmw I had tested still does this with slick tyres and 90% power to the rear, awd swapped yet 10% to the front shouldn’t cause this severe understeer.
Thanks for reading, any discussion is appreciated!
Very strange but it was still happening with other cars, I went to test previously tunes cars which I knew were grip weapons and yet again they were acting like all power fwd cars
I’ve restarted my game, reset my controller sensitivity settings and then re applied what I normally use and everything has returned to normal
Has anyone else experienced this? Should it be worth bringing up as a bug report?
Actually very strange, I had the pagani in my head as a bad car now I feel like I have to go through tuning it again because it feels incredible, last time I tried it I was being cautious not to go straight into walls because of this
Have you added anti-roll? Are you properly adjusting tire pressure? What about your front and rear diffs? Central diff alone isn’t the only thing that can cause understeer, especially after AWD swapping a car. I’ve got a tune on the 1M with no understeer, but I kept it RWD.
As for the Valhalla, most modern high powered supercars have some understeer, since it adds stability to the car at very high speeds. They usually accomplish this with a cranked up front anti-roll bar and too high of front differential (if AWD).
Thanks for the input, but If you read the update above I’ve discovered restarting the game and resetting the controller sensitivity options and then re applying them eliminates this problem
Seems like a bug but I would like to find out what caused it
I had something else entirely a few times, on some cars like the bronco and those extreme offroad vehicles, if you put the suspension too stiff like rebound, it would actually collapse the rear suspension entirely after a jump and the rear wheels would be stuck in the chassis. and i have only cosmetic damage enabled.
