Was a fantastic addition for AC for relaxed cruises, and it used to work fine, after csp updates it stopped working. I am just hoping for an update.

In 3rd and 4th gear cars, upshifting and downshifting can be repetitive as the RPMs fall below the bottom rpm when shifting up, but this mod is good.

Hi, first of all thanks a lot for this app.

Here are some suggestions based on my experience with automatic gearboxes on BMW/Audi/Porsche, my trying of your app and browsing the code :

* Prevent double-downshifts by adding a requirement of ~2.5sec between downshifts. This would give time for the engine to ramp up and offer a nicer experience. Ideally, we'd want to accept double downshifts but skip directly to the -2 or -3 gear to avoid the harshness of multiple throttle blips (not sure if that's possible in AC though? appart from switching to an H pattern gearbox).
* Require a full kickdown (0.95+ gas pedal) to provoke a downshift in eco-mode. Allowing to comfortably ride the torque of the current gear. Most cars with a decent size engine will be happy to let you ride the torque before rather that downshifting. A sensor at the end of the gas pedal travel signals the ECU to drop one or multiple gears.
* Consider the brake pedal exactly like the gas pedal variable is considered to update aggressiveness. As an aggressive braking suggests an aggressive driving too.
* Consider lateral G-meter to prevent the dropping of aggressiveness while cornering (and prevent upshifts). Maintaining the aggressiveness steady between the moment one enters the corner and the moment one exits it.


I'd be happy to pay for these to be implemented BTW :)

4 stars because it always starts in manual. No issues other than that

This app is very, very close to bringing something to AC that i've personally been wanting for a *long* time. It works quite well on most automatic transmission cars, but has a tendency to be just a little bit too sensitive when giving it between 50 and 90 % throttle. I would totally co-sign on the review made earlier, suggesting some solutions to this "issue". However, i applaud the idea and the implementation. An update on this part, and you'll see 5 stars from me for sure. I'd also love to be able to donate a coffee / beer / whatever for your work on this one.

Cheers! :)
