PxReal PxVehicleAckermannGeometryData::mAccuracy

Accuracy of Ackermann steer calculation.

Note
Accuracy with value 0.0 results in no Ackermann steer-correction, while accuracy with value 1.0 results in perfect Ackermann steer-correction.
Perfect Ackermann steer correction modifies the steer angles applied to the front-left and front-right wheels so that the perpendiculars to the wheels' longitudinal directions cross the extended vector of the rear axle at the same point. It is also applied to any steer angle applied to the the rear wheels but instead using the extended vector of the front axle.
In general, more steer correction produces better cornering behavior.

Range: [0, 1]
