    Hello everyone!
    I hope someone knows the solution, i made a little 2 DOF servo modell for testing the motion simulation in Life for Speed. For road surface Bumps i use Heave
    As I drive off from the road I realized that only the Axis 1 shakes even if the left even if the right-hand side rolling on the grass or bad road surface.
    Axis 2 do it only if i switch off the movement from Axis 1. Is there any Solution for this problem?

    I believe you need to set the direction of sway the same for both axis since your servos are opposed. Set both sway boxes either orange or not. Leave the others as you have them unless surge and heave move backwards. If either does just reverse the dir box settings for that dof on both axis.

    I tried all variations, but its not work as it should. What I want is that when I drive off the road to the left side Only the left servo should shaking or if i do this on the right side i want only the right servo shaking.
    Now currently only shaking the right servo in addition to any setting

    Simtools has no way to differentiate between bumps on the left or the right because its not in the telemetry data received

    confirmed. roll can add some immersive movements due to the lack of only singular heave movements (eg. driving over curbs).

    PS: even pitch can help a little bit if you use at minimum a 4DOF (front lifting, back lifting).
