Makes driving cars and tanks feel the way it does in most other games.

Reverse without releasing the brake

In the base game, holding the brake brings the vehicle to a stop and then it just sits there. To drive backwards you have to release the brake and press it again.

With this mod, keep holding the brake: the vehicle stops, pauses for a moment, then starts reversing. Release the brake during the pause to stay parked. The same works the other way when stopping from reverse with the accelerate key.

Consistent steering while reversing

In the base game, cars and tanks steer differently when driving backwards:

• Car: steering right rotates it counterclockwise, like a real car.
• Tank: steering right rotates it clockwise, the same as when driving forwards.

By default this mod makes the tank steer like the car, so both vehicles behave the same. Either vehicle can be switched to the other style in the settings.

"Driving backwards" follows the keys you hold: while the brake/reverse key is held, steering uses the reverse style even if the vehicle is still rolling forwards, which might feel more intuitive. This can be switched to follow the vehicle's actual movement direction instead.

Settings

All settings are per player, under Settings → Mod settings → Per player:

"Invert" means steering right while reversing rotates the vehicle clockwise. Modded tank-style vehicles use the tank setting.
