i seem to recall that when that setting is a 100% then climbs are as realistic as they will get, and if a 50% they are more like half the grade. does that mean at 0% the grade is flat?
sometimes i wish they had an amplify setting, like 150 or 200%. not sure how high i'd go but it would sure make things interesting.
