Controllers are used to simulate various special functions of a vehicle’s using lua. It includes things like digital gauges, drivemodes, lightbars, stability control, etc.
Every vehicle needs at least one main controller, with the main options being “dummy” , and “vehicleController” .
Vanilla controllers can be found inside “\lua\vehicle\controller” in the game’s install folder.
