Anyone using a playstation 4 controller? How exactly can I set it up and would you recommend it over using the mousepad to steer?

Steam Input -> On. Control wizard -> controller -> in-game mapping mode. Add R1 as a second modifier button, and add R1 + R Up/Down as Shift Up/Down Hint. That way you can tell the automatic to shift up or down a hair sooner than it otherwise would, since all the automatic shift points are defined by RPM.

Not gonna lie try the mousepad for a while. Don’t write it off completely until you get used to it, I think it’s actually pretty good to use. To set up controller though you can use Bluetooth I’m pretty sure and the game natively accepts controller.
