oi oi oi I want to use the thing on a halftruck, and I'd like to do a cheeky thing in it and need to yoink some value out of the controller
messaged you on discord

Thx for the comment. Haven’t had those issues myself, I’ll have a look at it!

Works great, the only ackermann controller I got to work.

Suffers from flipping wheels with bigger steering input (below -0.7 and above 0.7) and the steering angle option didn't seem to restrict the steering angle, easy to solve by multiplying the steering with a reduction of ~0.5 before feeding it into the controller, which also prevents the wheels from flipping with a bigger steering input.

Excellent controller otherwise, makes the wheels turn as expected, easy to invert axles and very simple to understand how to set it up.

Great work!

thank you so much for this

Yeah, gotta change that then. I’ll do it in a bit. Thanks for looking into it! (I had some tests on my hands at the time so sorry for the late response ;)

After doing some testing, I believe the devs clamped steering angle to one radian or some approximation of it in each direction. I'm not sure if this affects your formula's calculations.

So 60 degrees?

The wheels turn 2/3 of a pivot with the same input.

looks great, nice
now if only i could get a dev confirmation on the steering angle

updated it

as for the max angle, nah I just took a screenshot from above and drew some lines in paint.net ;) It should still give a max steering output of one though.

oh, never noticed haha, i'll update it. thx!

Also, out of curiosity, have you determined with certainty that the maximum steering angle for wheels is 70 degrees?

Hello, thanks for the work. I noticed a flaw, however. For the sake of subtracting width, you have only 3x3 wheels for 2 blocks total, 5x5 wheels for 4 blocks' width, and 9x9 wheels for 6 blocks' width. 6 blocks' width should be for 7x7 (which you should add), and 9x9 would be 8 blocks' width.

Thanks, I used this in my truck for 4 wheel steering.

NICE! Always wanted something like this

Stormworks is really bad at updating your stuff, the game has to be closed most of the time

Re download if it’s just one

Hmm, it might’ve been the previous version that was acting up... if you spawn in the workshop item, are there two or just one vehicle spawning in?

also i think it would maybe just be better to use normal steering a/d on a seat instead

On the test vehicle the steering is delayed on one wheel (right) when steering both ways.
Its like this with other vehicles which causes the wheel to become stuck

now suitable for vehicles with more than one "steering" wheel!

Is the controller part of the vehicle? Cuz else the signals won’t get through

I’ve been working on a new one, so that will be up soon (1h)

Odd

Does it work on the test vehicle?

oh, because i could not make the micro controller work at all

But eh, the micro controller’s settings tab is accessed with the arrow like tool where components turn blue yaknow? And then just click it

I’m hoping you’re not asking how to connect everything, cuz this is literally an example vehicle Lmao.

um how does this work?

np, wanted to derust my trig a bit ;)

Thank you! I made my own but I doubt it worked properly.
