    Please add the letters (F) or (B) or the words (Front) / (Back) after the numbers in the brake bias to make it obvious where the brake pressure increasing or decreasing....

    Yeah, this is something I always wondered why it's so poorly explained in racing games.

    Ive thought it was fairly obvious and it isnt a 2 minute fix
    When you hover over /click theres a description on the right hand side of the screen does it say anything

    1. As a programmer myself, changing a simple text string should be a real quick fix, perhaps not 2 min but real simple.
    2. The super-useful-description box on the right that usually describes what the settings actually do, does not specifically indicate if the first number is the back or the front brakes like in AMS2 for example.
    3. @Andi Goodwin What makes it so obvious? Please describe, perhaps I'm missing something. Then why the post gathered a few "agree" already!

    I guess the direction the car is pointing in the picture below the setup is a clue and pretty much all cars have bias to the front by default but I totally agree the clarification would be nice to have.

    It would also be nice to see the values for non adjustable elements on all cars e.g. the diff settings, that way if there was an error like with the DTM20s it would be apparent to everone not just the developers.

    From memory the AMG gt4 either has a non adjustable roll bar on springs on the front or back, not sure if that is a mistake or intended. @Alex Hodgkinson

    Rear springs are not adjustable, only 140s homologated
