Hi people,

I have a slite problem with the x, y co-ordiantes of my lotto ticket place, what i'am making, and it is that when i build the square. When i go in the middle it shows the message i want it to show. Right i'all get to the point... first of all i created the x, y co-ordiante code for the lotto ticket place

if ((MCI.Info[0].X / 196608 >= 46176313) && (MCI.Info[0].Y / 196608 >= 15915129))

above that i have

if (MCI.Info[0].X = 3) & (MCI.Info[0].Y = 3);



and its saying that i have n error with the MCI method i used.

Errors:

Error 1 Cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'bool' C:\Documents and Settings\Owen\Desktop\Cruise Tutorial\LFS_External_Client\LFS_External_Client\Form1.cs 557 17 LFS_External_Client
Error 2 Only assignment, call, increment, decrement, and new object expressions can be used as a statement C:\Documents and Settings\Owen\Desktop\Cruise Tutorial\LFS_External_Client\LFS_External_Client\Form1.cs 557 36 LFS_External_Client
Error 3 Pointers and fixed size buffers may only be used in an unsafe context C:\Documents and Settings\Owen\Desktop\Cruise Tutorial\LFS_External_Client\LFS_External_Client\Form1.cs 557 36 LFS_External_Client
Error 4 Cannot take the address of the given expression C:\Documents and Settings\Owen\Desktop\Cruise Tutorial\LFS_External_Client\LFS_External_Client\Form1.cs 557 36 LFS_External_Client

Big error really, but i'am trying to figure it out for my self. Just thought if you guys could point me in the right direction of what i've done wrong

Thanks...

I'am talking about how to get the speed in MPH...

Thanks, Rovex. I think that code you gave me might not work because it the code ppl have sent me so far do not work... but is it supposed to do this ???

yourdriving at 5 mph Speed 5

your driving at 50 mph Speed 50



Is that what it is supposed to do ?

ok give me a message when you found out about MPH.

oh you call that right ? Speed 1548.9936 ?????

i only put in MCI.Info[0].Speed * 0.44704);


can you send me the code ?

This will return a float, so do cast to int. (Unless you want some cool looking buttons.)


That dougie-lampkin ?

32768 = 100 m/s.
1 MPH = 0.44704 m/s.
MCI.Info[0].Speed * 0.44704);

oh lol

oh wait i found it... 3 is 6 , and 0 is 3

errr yes i have read the code

just dont know how to convert it into MPH. i've tried all sorts and calculations, but still i might not have learned this kind of maths...

if you like say the calculation, i might be able to do it mentally or use some working out for my self, not you working it all out for me

Well of course i know what 0 x 0 is... its just that when i type in MCI.Info[0].Speed * 0); it spams Speed 3.

.....Can any one help ?

hi,

i have MCI.Info[0].Speed * 0);.

One problem in that though... it only spams a message saying 3 when i'am stood still. Can any body give me the caluculation to convert LFS units to MPH ? That would be grateful.

Thanks!

Regards

Owen.

are you talking to me here ? ok that code will convert the LFS units to MPH ? i think...

ok but how would i convert the LFS unit speed into MPH ? atm when you go like 3 mph it shows you 300 or 257 in lfs units

oh yer 1 question...

what is

privatevoid MCI(Packets.IS_MCI MCI)
{
for (int i = 0; i < Players.Count; i++)
{
decimal Speed = (decimal)((MCI.Info[i].Speed * (100f / 32768f)) * 3.6f);
decimal ConvSpeed = (decimal)(Speed * 25 / 1000);
Players[GetPlyIdx(MCI.Info[i].PLID)].Payout += ConvSpeed;
}

used for ? it doesnt work and doesnt show the speed. I guess you have to do some coding for your self write ?

ol, i've not done any clickable buttons either... i can do them but cba

Right i'am going to say this ONCE AND ONLY! dont go off topic

right i come home frm school and i loaded C# opened XNA i thought i'd make a game, and somthing americal happend. All this code came coming to me, and when i tryed my first game it Worked !

I was so amazed.

I'm happy that most of my classes are computer classes, where I have freedom to do this sort of stuff

LMAO! usully when the teacher isnt looking i do some code

i have answers.

Yes i will follow what you tell me.
I will learn.
i'am going to read that C# book at school and i dont care what the teacher says (done it before).

And The_angry_angel

he's helped me alot over the pass couple of days. But i got to say a very great thanks to dougie-lampkin. He has helped me RIGHT from the beggining of 'How do i make an InSim'.

Thanks guys for your help.

ok.

its fun the problem solving but my insim app keeps timing out and thats NOT FUN !

infact its p****** me off because its been doing it for months. I have a great clue that it might be i have a prblem in the code in the NCN packets.

does any one know ?

Ok. but can you send me the link to get started to make this game ?

Quote from Woz :

Did you ever step back as people told you to and read through your C# book from COVER to COVER?

yes.... actually i did read through my book.

dude i'am not giving it up. This is my dream. making my own insim app...

ok. now i'am on the part of earning money while cruising ... x,y coordinates right ?

where can i find the documention ?
