Multi-grid rover: back wheel don't steer in Inverse Direction.
Hi! Big congrats for this, it's pure genius work! :)

I have one problem with it, the steering angles are not properly set in my case. Setup:
01 W W
02 W W
03 W W
04 W W W W

05 W W W W
06 W W W W
07 W W W W
08 W W W W
09 W W W W
10 W W W W

1-4 are on the main grid, 5-10 are on 2 subgrids (left & right).
1-4 should steer in one direction, while 7-10 in the other. 5 & 6 should be passive.

The script sets 1-6 OK, but 7-10 does not inverse.
I also noticed the interior ones have a slightly different angle.

Observations:
- I have a remote control on each subgrid + maingrid. All have the same orientation
- I tried recompiling the mod
- Cockpit is centered on the main grid;
- I tried tick / untick the Inverse Steering on 7-10.
Am I doing something wrong?

Is it possible to disable the steering auto-settings so I can set it manually?
- I tried setting UseAckermannSteering and UseAdaptiveSteering to false but it still overrides.

Many thanks in advance!

Hi. Not really sure why the steering does not auto inverse. Normally the game itself hiddenly inverse wheels behind the CoM and my script relies on it, so maybe something changed there. Maybe it something else, idk. You can remove inverse control from the script by deleting these lines:
if(Math.Sign(suspension.WheelPositionAgainstRef.Z)!=Math.Sign(suspension.WheelPositionAgainstCoM.Z)) suspension.Obj.InvertSteer=true; else suspension.Obj.InvertSteer=false;
and then manually set inverse here needed. Also I have to note that 'interior' wheels, if I got you right it a 'batman wheels' placed inward, my script may not work properly with them. In particular it may set wrong friction to them when drift/roll occurs.

Happened to see this and did a quick test on one of my rovers, but if you turn on Invert Steering for some wheels, those wheels won't turn the right way using DAS. So don't use invert steering if you are, just let DAS control that.
