Controllers are sub-modules that are used to control various functions of a vehicle using lua.

They are divided into 2 categories. Main controllers, which handles the primary inputs and functions of your vehicle, and auxilliary controllers, which allow to add various special features to your vehicle, including things like electronic driving assists, additional powertrain control functions, different dashboard systems, etc.

Controllers are defined within the controller section of jbeam, where each controller is called and their settings defined.

In some cases, with controllers that have a lot of parameters, the use of a list outside of the controller section is often prefered. Examples are included in the controllers where they would most often be used.
