Is there a way to set a penalty on reset use on a server?
Specifically, I am setting up a nondedicated server to race with friends and I would like the server to automatically hand out either a drive through or stop and go penalty to the driver if/when they reset thier car on the track.
I imagine it would be simple:
IF (USERNAME==reset)
/p_sg USERNAME
I just have no idea where if anywhere such a command could be put. Could it be done w/ scripts?(I don't know anything about scripts yet)
I don't know if they do that the whole race. I thought I remember seeing another video where they did, but this is the only one I could find right now.
I could picture this being a nightmare for multiplayer servers.
Imagine a track so large that it will only barely run on the host's monster machine. Anyone that logged in would crash because thier computer couldn't handle it.
I would love a selectable sized pad for multiplayer too, but I'd rather have it for just single than not at all.
I would like to see and option to just type in a size of a rectangular piece of pavement.
I've only even been to one autox venue that i could set up in lfs. Lfs's course is too narrow for all the others.
So I'd like a single player only Autox pad that before loading you could type in m1Xm2 for the size and the game would render it. If it's too big and crashes your comp that's your problem.
Why would you limit the base adjustablility of the cars?
All you're doing there is creating a situation where you will jump in a car and think it will be perfect with just a tweak of the spring rate. Oh wait springs are not adjustable sorry.
I never want options taken away.
You could argue that in the base cars you shouldn't be able to swap diffs, but sometimes I like to put an open diff in the XR because my street car has an open diff and I want to play around w/ a car similar to mine.
What if the server admin could lock certain settings to the defaults(say a check box next to each slider). On logging into the server you would see a message telling you which settings are locked w/ a button to go to the pits to adjust things. Then any setup with those settings changed wouldn't be allowed and that racer would be force to use the default set.
That would give the function I think everyone here is looking for without taking away the options some people like.
I'd like to be able to sort the hot laps to only see laps put down with one of the default setups. Just a new filter added in like filtering by country or input type.
I wouldn't think that would be too hard and it would really help new people to develop thier driving by comparing with setups out of the equation.
It wouldn't affect any of the fast drivers either except for possibly giving them a new record to shoot for.
