Hi, used the GPS mod for FS17 and liked it a lot. Have not tried this as it seems to be somewhat different from the past version, and it seems you are not alone having trouble figure things out. Theres a lot of comments below in the link u provided, not so positive to say.

FYI there is a snap steering option with Moglis Keyboard Steer mod, though its not as advanced as GPS mod for FS17 I belive.
You can check it out yourself here: https://github.com/Mogli12/KeyboardSteer

Good luck!

You have downloaded the wrong GPS Mod for a start, that one on the website linked in the opening post is for FS17. The date on the upload being June 2018 should have been a big giveaway. Also that site is one of the shady, untrustworthy sites that steals and reuploads mods from other sites, so you shouldn't really be using it or positing links to it.

If you want the GPS Mod for FS19 the official place to download that and report issues with it is on the following: https://github.com/stijnwop/guidanceSteering

And as posted it's now known as the "Guidance Steering" mod, not the GPS mod. A more accurate name to reflect its purpose, IMHO.

It's a bit basic with little in the way of a GUI and no easy way of re-adjusting a pre-defined course, but it works fine. Definitely in the "worth a try" category.

there are hotkeys to adjust the course built in. The instructions in the readme lists them. the mod is well built and easy to use.

the 1st and most important step is to get it from the mod devs github. getting from anyplace else is useless.

Thanks for the readme tip.

Agree on the github comment too +1.

It´s not "now" called Guidance Steering, it´s called that since Wopster started to make it somewhen start of february. The GPS mod was by upsidedown, but he did not convert it as he is part of the Cattle and Crops development team. Wopster is now trying to develop something new.

There is a topic about that in giants own forums:

"Now" as in what its called and what's known as by the community, NOW. The authors never changed its name because its not the same mod, but we the community certainly made the assumption that it was.
