Best/most realistic settings for a controller?
Those who play with a controller, how do you make it realistic? I think the steering is a little slow and the brakes work like, super good? I think too good compared to Rl? Also the truck stiffness etc is all at 100% is this like, realistic? Also, When I look around the cabin I do so with the right thumbstick, is there any way to increase the camera speed?

I use my Joy Hat for steering (Left and Right) and my Right Joy Stick for acceleration and braking (up and down)...Left Joy Stick for looking left and right....down on my Joy Hat for centering the camera view...Y Button for hazards...X button for light modes....A Button for high beams..Left Joy Stick click for small mirrors (left and right on/off) Right Joy Stick click for Route advisor on/off... and B Button for scrolling the Route advisor.... Start Button for Air Horn...Back Button for outside overhead view....Left Trigger for left turn signal..Right Trigger for right turn signal....Left Button above trigger (not sure what its called) for Cruise Control....Right Button above trigger for Jake/Engine Brake...also UP on my Joy Hat to Activate/Enter...like at weigh stations and rest stops.

I'm using a Logitech F310 Controller...but it's similar to most X-Box types with the buttons I'm using....works well for me...but you need to play with sensitivity and dead zones to your preference....all easily done in game

do you know if theres a way to make the camera turn faster if you use right stick to look around?

Also what is dead zone and sensetivity? Sensetivity is like how fast you steer I think? But whats dead zone?
