Delay while getting put into gear using h-shifter and clutch

[Trudgie]

Ive got a G27 for ATS and i was wondering if you could fix that weird little delay the truck takes to go into gear if you use the clutch with the h shifter, i can shift with no clutch pretty well but it still annoys me with the delay when i decide to use it

I've always had small delay when shifting, like a 1/2 second or so. This is using a keyboard and no clutch or h shifter. It's not bad, but it annoyingly noticable.

Last I tried shifting into another gear immediately in a real vehicle, the transmission refused to accept without stuttering or grinding. In real life, you're not going to shift as quick as possible. You're going to give the engine and transmission time to recover getting out of gear and getting put back in.

As for clutchless shifting, that delay gives me just a bit more time to not grind the gears. I can take my time knowing that when I finally push my G27 shifter into a slot, it'll catch.

it isnt me slamming it straight into the next gear theres an actual delay from when you put it in gear with your shifter and it going into gear in the game, unless my game has something wrong with it. I dont try drive my truck like a racecar

[Reese]

I know. The forced delay. It does it as well when you don't use the physical shifter.

Of course there's a delay, you have to match RPM of the engine to RPM of the gear you are going to. It's not about shifting slowly, it's about rev matching.
Happy Truckin'!

What I mean is, on upshifts, the delay you are experiencing is the engine revs slowing to match the desired gear revs. When they match, the gear change completes.
IRL you wouldn't feel a delay shifting like that, you'd feel a GGRRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNDDDDDDD and make much noise and eventually go nowhere.

No, you cannot fix it. It is there to simulate mechanical gearbox. As a matter of fact, some other games have this implemented too (DiRT Rally, for example, has similar delay for older cars from 1960-1980s years)

Strange, I don't notice any significant delay between the stick hitting the slot and the transmission shifting into gear.

Are you using synchronised or unsynchronised shift setting? If you're using the synchronised shift setting then try it in unsynchronised mode, see what you get. If the delay is only with synchronised mode then it's possibly deliberate (to account for gear synchronisation/air-shifter actuation or whatever).

If you're getting it in both, then ?
