Hi it’s definitely possible to overdo things initially!
To read what all the options and buttons do in Explorer, click the ? button at the top right of each menu screen.
There are other threads about options that help reduce sickness but can highlight them again here—
- Take it easy your first time playing, don’t pedal or steer too hard
- a table fan in front of you can keep you cool and help with immersion.
- in Play, play through “green/comfortable” games before “yellow/moderate” games then “red/intense” games
- in Explorer avoid twisty roads initially, and read the ride reviews forum for rides which have the smoothest transitions
- the biggest hammer to continued motion sickness is comfort mode, which turns Explorer into an interactive slideshow
- other options that may help are 3rd person view (reduces distortion and sense of motion), monoscopic (reduces depth perception artifacts), and city mode (which overlays virtual flat roads)
- autosteering is useful to remove your body from the equation or until you gain good speed and turning control. When using autosteering keep your eyes on the dots ahead as that will cause your head to turn as the avatar goes around curves, which is how our motion controls work in reverse to keep your eyes and ear in balance
