How do I calibrate my steering wheel?

Go to the "Settings" menu and enter the "Controls" rider. There is a sub menu (the button can be found bottom right) called "Steering Wheel". Here you can adjust and finetune all settings regarding your steering wheel.

If you open the Steering Wheel menu in the settings, you will see a couple of sliders which are tightly connected to how Bus Simulator 18 recognizes input from your Steering Wheel.

Many Steering wheels tell the game how much a pedal is pressed, or the steering wheel is turned by giving it a Value between -1 and 1. But Bus Simulator 18 needs the input to be between 0 and 1 to correctly translate it to throttle and break in the game. So, we need to transform the Input we get from the steering wheel to a value we can use it.

Let’s make an example:

Your steering wheel pedal returns -1 if it is not pressed and 1 if it is fully pressed. If you bind this pedal to the throttle and press it you will see, that the preview on the side only reacts once the pedal is pressed by about 50% and ignores the everything before.

The first thing we will fix, is that the range of the pedal input is to big. To do that, we will scale the input down to 50% by setting the scale to 0.5. If you now press the pedal, you will see, that the preview still only reacts once the pedal is pressed by about 50% but the bar won’t fill completely anymore. That is exactly what we want, if you look at the orange line and blue line in the diagram, you will see, that we reduced the effective range of the pedal from 2 to 1.

But we currently still get a negative input if the pedal is not pressed at all. To fix that we will need to offset the input by a certain amount. In this case we will set the throttle offset to 0.5. This moves the minimum value from -0.5 to 0 and the maximum value from 0.5 to 1 (Grey Line). With that the full range of the pedal should be shown in the preview.

Now that we setup the pedal range we might want to change how fast the game reacts to a change in the pedal. To do that we can change the throttle exponent:

Exponent equals 1: Every input is mapped 1:1 to the game

Exponent less than 1: A small push of the pedal will have a bigger influence which will reduce the farther you push the pedal

Exponent more than 1: A small push will have a small influence which will increase the farther you push the pedal

Recommended Standard Values:

• Min Pedal Input: -1; Max Pedal Input: 1

Scale: -0.5

Offset: 0.5

Dead Zone: 0

Exponent: 1

• Min Pedal Input: 1; Max Pedal Input: -1
• Min Pedal Input: 0; Max Pedal Input: 1
• Min Pedal Input: 1; Max Pedal Input: 0
• Min Pedal Input: -1; Max Pedal Input: 0
• Min Pedal Input: 0; Max Pedal Input: -1
• Combined Pedals: If both pedals are recognized as the same axis you will need to split them manually. Assign both pedals to the actions you want them to execute and try out a combination of point 3,4,5 and/or 6.

Mira Tannhauser : Well done! I've already got a new mission for you: the municipality has recently been talking to the Chamber of Commerce, and they've requested you to create routes along the city's ring and belt roads, which are very densely populated. They want to make major improvements to public transport along those roads to boost commerce for local businesses. There is a bonus if you can get that done in the coming weeks.

Bus Simulator 18

Moenchengladbach/Germany, December 17, 2018 – astragon Entertainment GmbH and the stillalive studios developer team are happy to announce the release of the newest update for Bus Simulator 18 today. The update offers not only a new drive mode but also a whole new gameplay mode for virtual bus drivers.

With their sixth update for the popular Bus Simulator 18 the team of stillalive studios enhances the game with two new exciting game modes. The Free Roaming drive mode offers players the opportunity to freely cruise around Seaside Valley and explore the different city districts without sticking to routes and timetables.

The second great improvement is the Sandbox Mode – one of the most fervent wishes of the Bus Simulator 18 community. In this new game mode, virtual bus drivers will be able to access all city districts and buses right at the start of a new game without having to unlock them by completing a number of missions first. This game mode not only offers more freedom for experienced bus drivers to create their very own public transport company, but also the option to freely test the modding of buses and other community created content.

Players already in possession of Bus Simulator 18 are now able to download the Free Roaming & Sandbox Mode Update from Steam™ at no further cost. Players who do not own the main game yet, can buy it in retail or as a digital download for 29.99 Euro, 34.99 USD, 26.99 GBP (RRP). Another addition to the main game is the recently released Mercedes-Benz Interior Pack 1 in form of a DLC on Steam™. This DLC includes brand new and authentic color patterns for seats as well as classy floor designs, which will help to further individualize the game’s Merdedes-Benz Citaro buses. The Mercedes-Benz Interior Pack 1 DLC is available at a price of EUR 1.99 / 2.99 USD / GBP 1.79 (RRP).
