I noticed recently that with steering I can’t stay on a course, i.e. Neokyo all nighter is really hard, and discovered there was a recent update to support steering at junctions. I use steering for the in depth experience and taking a line through turns but now if I’m anywhere near a junction, it takes me off course. I realize that there were many requests for steering support at junctions but it would be nice to somehow be able to lock the course. I know I can disable steering too but that ruins the experience. Is there any current way of locking the course and if not, any possibility of that in the future?

I use the Zwift Play controllers for steering and they don’t take me off course, steering with the play controllers doesn’t select turns. What device are you using?

I’m using the Elite Rizer. If I happen to be following a turn and a junction comes up it quickly follows my turn. If I’m not watching carefully I don’t see where the juction would normally go and it quickly switches to where I’m turning.
