Extra tracks: trackSteering

Name: trackSteering [Show more] Type: Variable Category: Extra tracks Summary: The optimum steering for non-player drivers on each track section Deep dive: The track data file format The extra tracks data file format The Donington Park track
Context: See this variable in context in the source code References: This variable is used as follows: * newContentHi uses trackSteering * newContentLo uses trackSteering

The following bytes are copied to sectionSteering by the GetSectionSteering routine, and are processed on the way. * Bit 0 becomes bit 7 of the result, to determine the direction of steering (shown with a directional arrow below) * Bit 1 clear means the result is multiplied by baseSpeed, so steering on straight sections is proportional to the track speed (this is shown with an asterisk * below) * Bits 2 to 7 contain the amount of steering to apply The processed values are shown below.
