API Referencevecontroller

Power Steering Controller

Simulates power steering assist that reduces steering effort at low speeds and increases road feel at high speeds. Manages pump pressure, assist curves, and speed-sensitive steering weight.

Simulates power steering assist that reduces steering effort at low speeds and increases road feel at high speeds. Manages pump pressure, assist curves, and speed-sensitive steering weight.


Hooks

HookDescription
init(jbeamData)Calculates the steering assistance curve and sets initial coefficients.
reset()Resets the steering assistance to the default constant offset.
updateGFX(dt)Calculates the current assistance multiplier based on ground speed and applies it to hydros.wheelPowerSteeringCoef.

Usage Example

-- Power steering is automatic — no direct API calls needed
-- Parameters are configured in JBeam

  • Orbitrol Steering — Hydraulic orbital steering

Pneumatics System Controller

Top-level controller for vehicle pneumatic (air pressure) systems. Manages air compressors, pressure tanks, valves, and pneumatic actuators. Provides the foundation for air brakes, air suspension, and other pneumatic subsystems.

Pyrotechnic Charge Controller

Controls explosive pyrotechnic charges that can detach vehicle parts or apply sudden forces. Used for effects like ejection seats, detachable body panels, or demolition simulations.
