I don’t have a set of pedals. I’ve notice in the external view that sometimes the rudder is hard over one side.
Is there an options for auto rudder?
Yes you can have the rudder controlled for you.
You can also assign your controller or joystick a yaw axis. I don’t have pedals either, but I fly with no issues on all 3 sims. Pedals are not at all a requirement, my friend!
What hardware are you using right now? I also don’t have a pedal, but I have a twist function on my joystick, so I use that as my rudder control instead.
Many joysticks/HOTAS have a twist axis which is good for rudder. Mine does, but it also has an analogue rocker axis on the front of the throttle. I use that for rudder instead, as I find it more precise than trying to manipulate my stick on three different axis at once.
I also have the (probably incorrect) theory that keeping the rudder on a different limb may help when I eventually do get myself a set of pedals. 
As long as your joystick has twist, then you do not need pedals. I do have pedals, but I barely used them because I used rudders on SaiTek flight controller. So, no, you don’t need pedals. 
Don´t worry ven the cheap Saitek MadCatz joystick has the option to turn the stick to the left or right side which is for rudder controls.
The Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog which I wanted to buy for my DCS F-16 (but the insane price and the not adjustable too stiff centering spring prevented me from doing so…) has no rudder controls which makes things a little bit difficult and less immersive.
Because in this case one must press Numpad Zero and Enter on the keyboard to control the aircraft taxiing on the ground, or map some buttons for this task on the joystick somewhere.
But no rudders are not necessary because any button on the keyboard joypad even mouse can be mapped for rudder left or right.
