Brake help
"Brake help" option should be placed into car setup, in brakes settings, near the TC (traction control) and it should be called ABS (anti block system).
LFS needs possibility to set buttons for turn signals.
LFS needs more objeckts for cruise ervers:
1. road signs such ass stop sign, main road sing , speed limit and other like that
2. traffic-light , like this

If you have a DFP you can get a script so you can use all the buttons on the wheel for whatever you want.

Sorry to state the obvious but LFS is a racing sim NOT a cruise sim. Racing sim first and then whatever can be done with it second.
Brake Help isn't ABS. It's sort of somewhere between manual brakes and ABS, but very basic. This is a good thing! Brake Help will also make you slower, which is a good thing.
Couple of things here.

Firstly, I did consider that ABS might work as a car setup option like TC, but I don't think it would help the sim any. If people can just slam on the brakes at the last minute without locking the wheels, they don't need to learn braking points and how the car handles. It would be an unfair advantage to those who used it over those who don't.

Secondly, traffic lights as autocross objects would be pointless unless you could set them up to be synchronised. That would require a fair few lines of code for something that the majority of LFS users don't use.

Remember, "cruise" servers are just somebody's idea. They used the tools they already had to make something unusual. LFS isn't designed that way, and it would be a bit retarded to place traffic lights in the middle of a race track, no?

Ridiculous.



Sorry.
A 50x50 SLOW sign would be great for turn one madness wouldn't it? Haha j/k Yea when I am racing I don't think seeing a stop sign would help out - unless the editor of the autocross track made a parking lot with stop signs and .... But thats too much effort and I want the devs to keep this a pure racing sim. I don't mind the people developing cruise servers, but I don't want the devs to waste time. About ABS type system, I am agreeing that it should not be implemented as once you know how to brake, (and its good to learn), you will be just fine...
On dry tarmac, ABS isn't needed at all. ABS is prohibited in most racing classes anyways. Although, it would be nice for the roadcars if we ever get snow and ice (some say LFS is already an ice racing sim :shrug..
While I'm against ABS and driver aids (in LFS):

Somehow I think that, even with ABS, you still need to learn braking points. It's brake modulation that you don't have to worry about.
