Reverse on braking (controller)

[smbrr]

Hello
I have this issue when I brake the car, it moves into reverse gear... I am not moving the gear stick at all, it just goes to reverse on its own when I press the left trigger.

I googled for a solution and found this:
To disable the auto reverse feature, open the Options menu and go to the Controls tab. Then, scroll down to the Vehicle Settings section and uncheck the box next to Auto Reverse.

But I am not finding this "vehicle settings" menu at all? What am I missing?

Also if you are using any of the L gears or H then it will not do it either.

It is only doing it on the A gear (automatic)
In reverse or low I can use the brake normally.

You can't disable this feature, just live with it.
It's even more annoying with a wheel.

That is false, you can't disable it. Get used to use the other gears as well when breaking.

I have no words for how stupid this is.

I have nearly 1400 hours in the game, using a controller, mostly in auto gear and do not have trouble with the auto reverse. Reverse only comes on if you hold the left trigger hard on. Just ease it on like you would a brake pedal IRL. The issue is not worth getting excited about.

Nonsense. Try to climb a hill like a normal human being. What happens when you want to hold the brake? Maybe you just want to turn your wheels. Maybe you just just want to take a good look at the path. Maybe you just want to scratch your balls.
Instead of being immobile as intended, the truck reverses down the hill. It's a disaster. And miss me with that "use the handbrake" cope I can see coming a mile away. I shouldn't need to pull the handbrake. It's a work around, not a solution.
Beside, you're straight up wrong. If you're going somewhat fast on tarmac and press the brake long enough to stop the truck, it will go in reverse immediately. Every time I brake and release, the truck stops and starts rolling back like I bounced off a wall.
1400 hours or not, this is completely retarded and not at all how brakes or gearboxes work.

On steep hill you use handbrake irl too sooooooo...but yeah, i see your point

[smbrr]

Yeah because irl you have 2 feet and 3 pedals, so it sucks to try and press them all at once when doing uphill maneuvers. That's the only reason you use the handbrake.

Otherwise you can throw in neutral and hold brake,wont reverse then at least

Or use low or low+.

[Tanktyr]

but they could add auto reverse an an option yeah, same thing that when using controller you put act like wheel or steering doesnt auto recenter like a normal driving game if your used to controller and it just feels off hehe

There actually exists a mod that disables auto-reverse, haven't tested it myself though.
