    Hello!
    I have changed many settings but not getting my rig to move like I want to.
    Problem is this:
    In sim tools testing all the movements works fine. But in game, surge movement is very low. It doesnt matter how much % I put In surge force, movement is always very small In game. Is there something I dont know about this thing?

    Can you please post pictures of all of your settings, including the Tuning Center while the game is running.

    Is there a reason you are using Axis Limiting?

    As there is no telemetry in the Tuning Center I am guessing the game is paused or in menu.

    While written with SimTools 2 in mind the tuning tips and tricks still apply, including tuning one axis at a time: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/steps-to-create-a-motion-profile.228/

    So start with Surge set to 20% in the Axis assignment and a much lower Tuning Center value, say 2, just to check you have motion. You can Capture the Min/Max values in the TC and save then tweak from there.
