Controller Settings

Tested on PS5 with DualShock 4 controllers

  • Steering Sensitivity: 36
    • Alleviates overly twitchy steering
  • Throttle Saturation: 100
    • More than 100 decreases throttle actuation which provides more trigger travel at low throttle which can help better judge low speed throttling
    • Increasing this may help avoid spinning the tires under throttle (see TC as an alternative)
    • But it also seems to reduce maximum throttle input meaning you accelerate slower
  • Brake Saturation: 100
    • More than 100 decreases brake actuation which provides more trigger travel at low throttle which can help better judge low speed braking
    • Increasing this may help avoiding lockup under heavy braking (but see ABS as an alternative)
  • Anti-lock Braking System (ABS): 1
  • Stability Control (SC): 5
  • Traction Control (TC): 3

Notes:

  • On console I prefer a more arcade driving experience so I prefer assists at a level that help me feel competent driving
    • Others who have better controller hand-eye coordination may feel these assists are too high
  • Saturation is not Sensitivity:
    • Saturation sets the point at which the maximum input is achieved, affecting the range of trigger travel needed for full input.
    • Ex. Increased throttle saturation lowers the rate that RPMs increase and therefore slows down the time it takes to get to top speed
    • Ex. Increased brake saturation lowers the rate at which brake is applied and therefore the rate at which speed is reduced while brake force is increasing
      • This can result in longer braking distances particularly at high speed
      • But it may still be advantageous to avoid brake lock up
    • Anti-lock Braking System prevents brake lock-up on hard braking
    • Stability Control prevents loss of traction by applying brake and modulating engine power
    • Traction Control prevents spinning the tyres under heavy throttle
