[ATS] Dynamic Suspension V2.0.0 [1.39.x]

December 6, 2020
DESCRIPTION

This modification makes truck behavior to feel more realistic with Steering Wheel or Keyboard. This mode have “Realistic Steering with Keyboard” included.
It allows you to make smooth turns on high speed without overturn the truck even if you use realistic suspension settings, in this case “Dynamic Suspension”.

The steering become harder when switching direction and increasing speed. It is less harder when is stationary, ideal for parking!

Braking is a important factor in simulation and also I made some improvements, helping keyboard users also. Now braking is progressive and not so brutal as the default. You will have to use more often the retarder or engine brake.

The video below is a demonstration for those who don’t have a steering wheel and want some realism with keyboard. I hope you enjoy it.

Changelog 2.0.0:

ENGINE compression factor:
– Increased Intensity of engine braking.

TRANSMISSION CHARACTERISTICS:
-Increased Retarder resistance factor.
– Decreased Flywheel resistance factor. (RPM loss)
– Adjusted when using clutch manual / automatic gearbox is taking off / changing gear.
– Increased torque converter-based transmissions.
– Increased relative magnitude of flywheel inertia
– Decreased transmissions inertia relative to the flywheel

Added support for modded trucks:
– Freightliner Argosy by Odd_fellow
– Freightliner FLB by Harven
– Mack R Series by Harven
– Kenworth K100-E by Overfloater
– Freightliner FLC by XBS

Note: This file containts default game controls so feel free to adjust them as you wish.

Patch compatibility: 1.39.x ; Older versions

Connection order: This mod should be set at high priority / above other physics mod!

Mod compatibility: This mod should work with all default trucks and the moded ones!

Settings for Keyboard Users:

c_rsteersens 0.75 # Recommended!!! Or you can set slider in-game on middle.

Dynamic suspension settings:

g_suspension_stiffness 0.2
g_cabin_suspension_stiffness 0
g_truck_stability 0.5
g_trailer_stability 0.5
g_brake_intensity 1.0 # Decrease value if is too strong.

Settings for Steering Wheel Users:

Dynamic suspension settings:

g_suspension_stiffness 0
g_cabin_suspension_stiffness 0
g_truck_stability 0.25
g_trailer_stability 0.25
g_brake_intensity 1.0 # Decrease value if is too strong.

Note: If those values isn’t proper for yourself, feel free to change them.
Note*: Write above setting in console (~) after load the profile.
Note**: Lower value means more realistic behavior but high risk of overturn

Very important! This mod doesn’t work on TruckersMP!
