it's a feature some steering wheels support, that pushes the player movements to the opposite direction or makes the wheel stuck, and that way simulates the blocking behaviour of wheels in real cars..... i think... i played colin mc rae rally 2 with such a steering wheel in a computer shop

Force Feedback is not only implemented into steering wheels but, when I remember correctly, first came up in joysticks (Mircosoft Sidewinder me thinks).
Today you find it in all kind of controlers:
- Joysticks
- Gamepads
- Steering Wheels

You can simluate many kinds of "forces" to the player.
E.g.
In a FPS when you get hit (by a shot or something else) you could feel the shock in the gamepad.
Or when you crash into a wall playing a driving game etc.

There are many possibilties and I would like to see force-feedback either supported by 3dgs or by a plugin too!

sounds great, so i'm assuming 3dgs doesn't support this feature?

No, not as far as I know.
Thats why maybenew asks for a plugin

look here in the wiki:
http://www.coniserver.net/wiki/index.php/Plugins#FORCE_FEEDBACK

there once was a DLL enabling force feedback in the engine, but the website is gone.
anybody who still has this dll?
