A highly requested mod, actual WO feature, and now (close to) reality for WU. The mod is in an experimental stage. As of now it imitates the behavior of the Steer2Camera mod by inputting a single frame of left or right movement, but in order to try and align your vehicle to a 45 degree angle. Looking at the code I'm not sure if I could replicate the WO functionality, as both the server and client seem to have code that will validate movement, so the next best thing is to 'fake' normal movement. The mod works by incrementally turning you left or right to the nearest 45 degree angle (i.e. N, S, E, W. As well as NE, NW, SE, SW) It only works when you toggle autorun on, and works continuously until you toggle it off. (It won't autoturn if you are actively pressing left or right) There's a small margin of error where the mod will aim for and stop turning you. You may eventually run off the road within this margin, but it (hopefully) shouldn't be too bad.
You can toggle this behavior with 'dd disable' or 'dd off' to turn off the mod. Similarly, you can toggle it back on with 'dd enable' or 'dd on'.
 (Download that last link) Some notes before you use the mod: - It works on all vehicles, including ships
- Lag will make the mod keep turning you past the intended target, so please don't set and forget.
- You may notice you continuously 'wobble' left and right while driving. This is the mod working as intended, it just can't get a solid straight heading because Sklo's cart speeds are pretty spicy compared to vanilla.
If you have any issues using the mod, questions, etc. Please post here.

So an on/off toggle would make this complete for sure. After using it a while, the forced 45 degree increments do get in the way of travel at times - especially when sailing. If there was a command line for the on/off, I could set my own hotkey easy enough. In fact, it would be great if every mod could be enabled or disabled via command line. There are several mods that I only need for my main character and not alts, so I could just drop the command line into "autorun" for each alt, for either on or off.
bdew did that with "Scanner", which is very nice. It's a great tool, but running it all the time ruins immersion for me, at least with all the settings I use.

Don't you have to use auto run for it. So that would make it a hot key right?

Well in a way, yes. But how often do you travel long distances by manually holding the "move forward" key when in a boat? I'm sure just about everyone will want to use their autorun while sailing and thus you run into some challenges with the Designated Driver mod. Like Danky said, it is on the radar to add an on/off toggle.

You don't hold the key. You just hit X for Autorun and to toggle off you just hit x again i would think.

This is correct but what i think Wurmhole is saying is that you don't always travel long distances along the cardinal directions or 45 degrees off. If you want to sail North or East or North-East it works fine but if your destination is North-North-East then the mod hinders you a bit since it will try to align the boat to the nearest 45 degrees of the cardinals if autorun is turned on. I think the mod is awesome but a toggle would be nice to have. |

Just download the zip and replace the jar file if you've installed already.
You can toggle it off with 'dd disable' or 'dd off' to turn off the mod.
Similarly, you can toggle it back on with 'dd enable' or 'dd on'. (Do not include the quotes)
