    Doable sure, but it will take work. The programming for the controller will be tough. It needs to have parameters for what to change in the suspension and when. Active suspension will absolutely ruin any cars drivability if it's not done well.

    Next question: How do I make the car tilt more without as much steering input? I have to steer the car all the way in one direction for the car to "tilt" 100%. If I only provide 50% steering input, the car tilts to 50% of its max angle. I see two values called steeringWheelLock and lockDegrees, but playing around with them seems to do nothing. Thanks in advance.

    Remove sway bars and soften springs.

    Are you referring to the Bentayga's super-capacitor based 48v sway bars that allow 0.0005 degrees of roll? The only roll you get is the tires compressing. Ive ridden in one and its amazing and would be cool to have in-game.

    Why active suspension? I'm pretty sure ATS incorporates this in the semi trucks, and it's honestly more boring to drive those than vehicles in other sims with normal suspension.

    Small bump. Kinda want to see what's new on the active sway-bar on the K-series.

    I attached the files that I've tampered around with quite a bit. I found that taking the less dramatic approach (you can just barely see the wheels tilting) adds a lot of stability, most notably with ESC off.
