Tire Pressure Control
Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS) controller that allows dynamic adjustment of tire pressures while driving. Used on military and off-road vehicles to optimize traction for different terrain types (lower pressure for sand/mud, higher for road).

State Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
activeGroupPressure | number | The average pressure of all currently selected wheel groups in Pascals. |
Public API
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
setGroupState(groupName, state) | Selects or deselects a wheel group for the CTIS system. |
toggleGroupState(groupName) | Toggles the selection status of a wheel group. |
startInflateActiveGroups() | Controls the main air valves to increase, decrease, or maintain pressure across all selected wheel groups. |
Hooks
| Hook | Description |
|---|---|
initSecondStage(jbeamData) | Identifies wheels and their pressure groups, creating control circuits for axles or groups of wheels. |
updateGFX(dt) | primary pressure management loop. Handles equalization between wheels in a group and performs inflation/deflation via air mass simulation. |
module.reset(jbeamData) | Resets the controller to its initial state. |
Usage Example
-- Adjust tire pressure
controller.getController("tirePressureControl").setPressure("front", 30)
controller.getController("tirePressureControl").setPressure("rear", 25)See Also

Shift Lights Controller
Controls dashboard shift indicator lights that illuminate progressively as engine RPM approaches the optimal shift point. Helps drivers time upshifts for maximum performance.
Trailer Landing Feet Controller
Controls the retractable landing gear (support feet) on trailers. Manages the raise/lower cycle for connecting and disconnecting trailers from tractors.
