Does the lightbar use the same lookahead as your autosteer setting or is the lightbar showing current position offset? I assumed the lightbar also looks ahead but sometimes it appears otherwise and as I think about it more I realized it might only be current position offset.

As far as i know it is just the Crosstrack Error (so your current position offset)
