Actually that's true isn't it. It IS an alpha. Maybe people should be made to mention that every time they say something negative
This makes me think that maybe Scawen should just dump the AI/single player mode completely until it's better. Then they'd be forced to review what they should be reviewing.
So with a LAP packet... why is some of the data an array? Is the key to do with the connection?
player no.: Array ( [1] => 0 )
unique id: Array ( [1] => 2 )
lap time: 0:57.47

Thankyou so much for your help. I feel like I can do anything now (pfft )
I just tried forcing a certain view in the sim, and it's a great feeling when it works.
I found out that it's a good idea to put a big blank echo before each flush, of small amounts of data at least:
I wondered why Firefox kept getting stuck while showing STA packets 
It was because browsers have their own buffer and it was waiting for more data. But you knew that already. I just thought I'd put it down in case another clueless n00b like me wanders into the thread

Yes!
I'm watching it with Race Director, because I don't have Eurosport 2, and it's worth it in itself. I've watched a few races before but my interest always drifted away. But this year I am really getting into it. I was riding with Justin Wilson for the whole Houston race - that circuit is just a little bit bumpy
Oh right, I didn't think of that! It makes perfect sense. Thankyou!

Another quick question - what's the ^L in the messages? It's a bit difficult to search for

Fujiwara, Ian... thanks for the information. I am learning with every post
I don't think I really explained it right though. At the moment die is ending the script. What I want to do now is to change it so that it doesn't stop... I want it to keep looping and echoing any messages it gets, if that's possible. I have tried removing die and putting echo in its place, but it seems that it's not as simple as that.

So I have a loop waiting for a chat message:
This works okay. But of course it will only show one message and then end the script. How do you keep it running? I've had a look around and tried print() (because echo() is not actually a function ), but it seems that without having die() there it never displays the message. I can't see why. I guess this should be going on a PHP forum really 
<?php
while(TRUE) {
$packet = fread($socketIn, 1024);
if(rtrim(substr($packet, 0, 4)) == "MSO") {
$in = substr($packet, 4, 128);
$out = trim($in, "\0");
die($out);
}
usleep(100);
}
?>
IMHO the proper racing servers should go above the cruising ones, this is meant to be a racing sim first and foremost after all. I'm not starting an argument, I like the city driving servers as much as anyone
This is great idea. When it's done it needs to be made a sticky. It could go in the wiki too.
Haha, thanks, I just had to choose now to do this didn't I!
Oh well, I'm learning PHP at the same time too. It's all good practice...

Thanks for your help guys. Now I know some of the basics I can do some fiddling and start to learn some more
As the Top Gear guys would say, it would need tonnes of oak trees and girders to keep it from going floppy
Maybe when body flex is implemented it will have an effect...
That should be okay

I would say something even simpler, like a quick fade to to the logo and back to the replay. A few years ago the F1 replays would fly in and out in a 3D box, but now the logo flies across the screen and the replay fades in.
I can upload a quick example of what I mean if it's okay for me to borrow a few seconds of the video
Yes, I know what you mean. I can fit 4x almost-one-hour highlights of the F1 races on a DVD, but it is quite low quality. On a standard TV you can't really tell much though, it's only when you watch it on a computer monitor that it's noticeable, but still watchable. I'm too stingy with myself to use more than four DVDs for the season
Being able to buy DVDs, well that will just be cool
