    Hello,
    I am looking in the ".hdv" for the value that modifies the Drafting phenomenon, I would like to lower it?

    it is the action that occurs when following a vehicle at high speed. This is the translation I found

    These are the main lines that effect the wake and draft:
    BaseDropoffLeadFollow=(0.078,0.155)
    LeadingExponent=2
    FollowingExponent=2.2
    VehicleWidth=1.9
    SideEffect=0.6
    SideLeadingExponent=1.9
    SideFollowingExponent=15

    The easiest thing to change if you want less is just to reduce the 2nd value in BaseDropoffLeadFollow.
    According to an old physics post, having the 1st value approx. half of what the second value is set to is a general guideline.
