Dynamic Wheel Friction

Description
Updates wheels friction values dynamically based on how much force they are resisting.

Tired of not getting better grip under downforce? Heavy vehicles still slipping? This mod is for you!

Compatible with aerodynamics, aerodynamics only needed if you want downforce.

Cheers, probably just SE sub-grid weirdness then.

it should not care if it is a subgrid as its based on where the wheel is relative to the suspension.

@DraygoKorvan
Would you happen to have any details on how this functions with regard to wheels on sub-grids?
I did some basic side by side testing with a pair of identical shape & weight vehicles and the one with sub-grid wheels seemed to have markedly less friction than the one without sub-grid wheels for some reason.

im interested in a mod that would let cars behave more like rally cars, where weight transfer matters and wheels propel the vehicle even when sliding sideways. do you think that would be possible?

yes

Is this per adjusting per wheel?

Man.. add material based characterics and you can do stuff like in SnowRunner (spintires) game.
Mud, Sand, Ice, road, dust-road, grass...

Where should I put the friction slider?? 50% as default?

Excellent, thank you. :selike:

should work for modded wheels.
