Description:
Just a small improvement to make driving more comfortable:
Currently, you have to hold down the left mouse button the entire time to steer, which can be tiring. I’ve added a simple toggle system that switches between driving mode and normal mode by pressing the middle mouse button.
If you have a key bound to the middle mouse button, you may want to change it to avoid conflicts.
When your mouse is set to "Vehicle" mode in the settings, simply click the middle mouse button once to activate mouse-driven steering. After that, you no longer need to hold down the left click — you can freely control the steering with your mouse.
Note: To shoot while inside a vehicle, you’ll still need to hold the right mouse button. This allows you to aim and steer simultaneously using the A and D keys.
Note: When you press the middle mouse button and lock in steering mode, the soft steering mode for the A, D buttons stops and returns to the game's default mode. This is exactly where I couldn't activate the soft steering system while driving with the mouse, but all the rest of the script processes work in this mode.
The logic I implemented might not be perfect, but I’m not an expert and didn’t want to make too many changes. My only goal was to help players who prefer using the mouse for driving — and this has been a big help for many.
I hope the original developer considers integrating a similar or even better version of this system in the future.
I also tried to implement a soft steering system for mouse-based driving, but due to limited knowledge and potential mouse input interference, I wasn’t able to get it working properly. I hope the original developer can add this feature smoothly in the future.
Hope this helps someone!
