Steering and Operation

This mod introduces various vehicle controls to the single-player mode of Grand Theft Auto 5. It enables you to use undeveloped features such as turn signals, window controls, and light adjustments for your vehicles. The mod also includes a car saving system that allows persistence for any vehicle, preventing it from despawning (NOTE: this feature is still under development and has not been fully tested).

This mod requires Alexander Blade's scripthook.

FEATURES

• - A fully customizable .INI file with rebindable keys *new in v3*
• - Multiple vehicle functions including left/right turn signals and hazard lights, operable windows, engine turn off, remote car alarm, and toggleable interior light.
• - Vehicle saving system; allowing you to make any vehicle persistent *new in v3*
• - Ability to enable/disable features *new in v3*

CONTROLS

The new .INI file allows you to remap keys according to your preference. However, some keys require a special handler when adding them to the .INI file.

Please refer to the README for instructions on how to remap controls.

By default, the key layout is:

• NUMPAD0: toggle engine on/off
• NUMPAD1: toggle left turn signal on/off
• NUMPAD2: toggle hazards on/off
• NUMPAD3: toggle right turn signal on/off
• NUMPAD4: open/close back left window
• NUMPAD5: while inside car, toggle interior light; while outside car, toggle car alarm on last vehicle entered
• NUMPAD6: open/close back right window
• NUMPAD7: open/close front left window
• NUMPAD8: save/unsave current vehicle
• NUMPAD9: open/close front right window

IMPORTANT NOTES

• This mod is still in development and many of the features have not yet been fully tested.
• The car saving system is to be used at your own risk- it has not been tested through missions or multiple saves/loads. Unsaving a car will allow that car to despawn, this includes "special" cars such as character's personal vehicles. Do not trust this system to save a vehicle through a mission or reload.
• The key mapping system is also vastly untested, so there may be issues with the mapping of certain keys. If you experience any issues or errors please contact the mod author via the email address given in "contact" below.
