    @Alex Sawczuk ? or @Coutie ?

    Maybe i'm missing something, but on THIS Page, where the new ABS Functions are described, i see the Entries
    ABSBrakeMapRearMin
    ABSBrakeMapRearStep
    and both are described with "Default 0, recommended 'using the same as the front brake'".

    But there are no
    ABSBrakeMapFrontMin
    ABSBrakeMapFrontStep

    So how do i know which Values the Front uses?
    Was it just forgotten, to add the 2 Entries to the Site?
    Or was the Code modified and the Front automatically uses the Rear Values, but the Description wasn't adapted?
    Thanks for any Explanation. :)

    I don't think those lines exist, they're not used on any cars. I'm not sure about the description, I just took it from what was written down. I'll have to ask about it.

    @Coutie I would also like to know another Thing, but it's about the new TC Functions.
    It would be nice, if you could ask for that too. :)

    The Entry "TCSlipAngleMapRange" is explained with:
    (range, setting, special) Onboard map for the target slip angle. Slip angle is measured in radians, optimum slip angle is 6-10 degrees (~0.1-~0.17 rad). Map range is recommended to be from more than 10 degrees to less than 6 (maybe as low as 1 or 2 for rainy weather).
    and the Example is this:
    TCSlipAngleMapRange=(0,0.025,9)

    So, because of the low "per Step" Value, i suppose that the Values are Radians and not Angles.
    If they would be Angles, you would need 40 Steps for a Change of only 1 Degree..... :eek:

    It would be helpful, to get that clarified too.
    Thank you

    I'll point out the comment does say 'measured in radians' :D

    Yes, i have seen it, thank you. :)
    It just would be easier to work with Angles.
    And yes, i know, that can be made in the Special Entries, but for the User, it would be easier to imagine what you are doing, if you could work with Degree Values.
    But who knows, maybe the "per Step" Value is in Degree. :D

    "ABS settings in general are applied to both front and rear axle. It's only when you want to specify different map for the rear, you use ABSBrakeMapRearMin/Step."

    I've just started to play around with these new settings (ABS specifically) but not making progress. Are there any working examples out there using the new system? The 0.43 FISI spreadsheet doesn't populate ABS and SkipBarber doesn't either.
