Allows to improve sudden inputs (such as pressing the brake key, or quickly pushing the steering thumbstick) into smoother, more realistic, more controllable requests.[list][*][b]{{'ui.controls.filters.-1'|translate}}[/b]: the simulator will make a reasonable guess and choose one of the options below for you.

If you are using a steering wheel, choose the same angle that your connected steering wheel is configured to (often 900 or 1080 degrees).[br][br]It's recommended to configure your steering wheel drivers to the maximum possible angle that your hardware allows, and then choose that same angle here, in this menu. That will allow you to drive a wider range of vehicles using realistic steering inputs (whether they are a quick-steering rally car or a large-steering truck).[br][br]Setting the angle:[list][*]Allows the vehicle steering wheel to match the angle of your real steering wheel (see '{{'ui.controls.lockType'|translate}}' setting).[*]Allows the '{{'ui.controls.ffb.softlockForce'|translate}}' setting to work (requires force feedback).[*]Forces the '{{'ui.controls.filter'|translate}}' setting to '{{'ui.controls.filters.2'|translate}}', for convenience.[/list]Note: if you are [b]not[/b] using a steering wheel, choose 0 degrees.
The more powerful the steering wheel is, the lower the strength you'll need to choose here. A good starting point is:[list][*]Entry level wheels configured to 1-3Nm: use 350 to 500[*]Mid range wheels configured to 3-5Nm: use 200 to 350[*]High end wheels configured to 5-30Nm: use 50 to 200[/list]If the chosen strength is too high, the most subtle details may become more noticeable, but the medium and strong details will max out and blend together, losing useful feedback. This is called [i]clipping[/i], and it happens because the steering wheel is being asked for more torque than it can produce.[br][br]You can check for clipping with the UI apps '{{'ui.apps.steering_position.name'|translate}}' and '{{'ui.apps.ffb_graph.name'|translate}}'. We recommend you reduce the strength until clipping happens rarely (or happens only in situations where you don't mind the lack of detail).[br][br]Note: force feedback in certain vehicles could be weaker or stronger than average (such as mods that weren't tested with a steering wheel). You can tune those vehicles individually through {{'ui.dashboard.vehicleconfig'|translate}} > {{'ui.vehicleconfig.tuning'|translate}} > Setup-specific force feedback multiplier.
When your steering wheel is turned beyond the maximum steering lock of the current vehicle, this setting will apply a force to pull it back into a valid steering angle.[br][br]Requires having set a valid '{{'ui.controls.angle'|translate}}'.[br][br]A smoother effect can be achieved with higher framerates and a lower '{{'ui.controls.ffb.softlockForce'|translate}}'.
