Kinematic controller joint triggers assert when target rotation is 180 degrees away (3.14)

[UltraEngine]

It seems that the custom kinematic controller hits an assert you set the joint target rotation 180 degrees away from the current orientation:

dAssert(lateralDir.DotProduct3(lateralDir) > 1.0e-6f);

I guess this is because the solver does not know which way to turn? Do you have any suggestions on how to handle this in a user-friendly way?
