Yes, then the sourcecode have to be adjusted.

It could well be the case that cleanspb doesn't work, although I think it's not related to a recorded time, but only to the best time in that particular session.
Documententation says this about it: /cleanspb -> Clean your current session of Spb

A while ago I had a struggle with flagconfirm and then finaly found out how that is working.
First you need to know this:

const CONF_MENTIONED 1;
const CONF_CONFIRMED 2;
const CONF_PENALTY_DT 4;
const CONF_PENALTY_SG 8;
const CONF_PENALTY_30 16;
const CONF_PENALTY_45 32;
const CONF_DID_NOT_PIT 64;

Then I made this code:


Of course the actions within each IF-statement, are of no use for you, but you can replace them with the things you want to happen.
And no, this won't have effect on the laptimes that Lapper will record, so you need to start storing your own values.

I don't know how to adjust that, but do know that I made an improved toptable at some point
See this posting: https://www.lfs.net/forum/post/1883528#post1883528

The ban command already is in the default Lapper script:


The code allows any admin to ban someone, taking the LFS UserName as $argv, while the ban will be for 1 day.
Of course you can set it to more days if you wish (I think 999 days is the maximum).
If you set it to 0, the ban will last for 12 hours.
Before the ban is executed, a private message will be send to the player receiving the ban.
If you want to send a general message, replace the line starting with "privMsg" with something like this: cmdLFS ( "/msg Player X has been banned for Y days" );

When it's needed to make the ban variable in length, you will need to code a simple form in which you type the LFS UserName and ban length and then submit the form, after which Lapper will execute the ban using the given values.
If you are really going for gold, you could grab the LFS UserNames from the people currently connected to your server and select one of them from there.

I'll answer quickly:

A server set to S3 can't be played by S2 users, even if it's not playing on RO, just like a S1 user can't join a S2 server that allow only S1 cars and plays on S1 tracks.

Your answer made me doubt myself (sign of weakness, I know) so I double checked.
I've set one of my servers to mode S3 in the config file and started it.
Chosen track is AS1 and car is XFG.
Then I tried connecting to it with my S2 license and I am able to connect to it.
It has always been the case that the settings and content running on the server, decides who can and can't connect.
If the settings and content are within the S1 license, people with that license can connect to it, even if mode is set to S2 or S3.

Quote from RedBeardedT :

Be happy you don't live in the US, it's $17.88 plus $2-$3 for the exchange charge.

All the servers that I use in my area have already changed to S3, so until I pay $20+ for the 1 available track in S3 the game is dead for me.

That's not true.
If you install the latest patch, you can connect to S3 servers, as long as they don't run the Rockingham track.

Thanks for the update Scawen en Eric and Merry Christmas to the whole LFS dev. team and there loved ones.

Can't understand the people who are complaining.
First of all, nobody is forcing you to upgrade to S3, so just install the patch and enjoy the updated graphics on all the S1/S2 content.
If you do decide to upgrade, you have paid 36 pounds over so many years, which is very cheap compared to games that sell sequels every year and are probably not played as often as you did with LFS.

Hello Yisc a question, you can make Lapper load an image that is on the computer where you run lapper and displayed on the server?

No, that's not possible and again, this isn't the kind of question that should be asked in this thread. Please keep it clean, thank you.

Is it possible, for example when I want players to be able to take with me ?

Please, don't use this topic for questions like these.
It will only litter the topic, while I want this topic about scripts only.

Make sure that you have the latest version of Lapper, which can be found here: https://www.lfs.net/forum/post/1896037#post1896037

This is correct and should work as intended.
Of course you need to replace "[YOUR MESSAGE HERE]" with any text you want to be displayed, but as it is right now, it should display that text every 5 minutes.

You need to delete the whole section that you have selected in the screenshot.
Then also delete the whole Sub SA_mid and SA_newyear, since that won't be needed anymore.
Then you will be good to go.

On a side note, if you really need to ask how to use the code presented to you, then you have no idea at all, of how Lapper is working.
So it would be a good idea to try and understand how the Lapper scripts work, what is happening at which point, etc.
Otherwise you will end up doing copy/paste, without having a clue what is happening.

Find the OnLapperStart event in your main LPR file.
Then replace the code within that event, with the code I have given you.
Add the sub-event Auto_message below that event
Add the message you want to display and you are fine to go

5 minutes message

I'm sorry I don't speak English

Okay, that's possible using RegisterScheduledAction, like this:


That will send a message at 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 minutes each hour of the day.

Lapper Auto Message How can ?

When do you want an automatic message?
I've said it before, please be as complete as possible when asking questions or explaining problems with Lapper.
Otherwise we can (and won't) help you.

It might not be related to your problem at all, but do you have any bandwidth monitoring software running on your pc?
I've had this with someone from the team I work for and that caused more or less the same issue as you described.

Well, I will be honest with you, a lot is wrong with your code.
You messed up commands and you didn't used the catchevent properly.
So I have re-arranged and corrected your code.
I've only tested it to see if it runs without errors now (which is the case), but haven't tested if it does what you want it to do.

- Download the file
- Rename it to sector_times3.lpr
- Put it in the "includes" folder

Quote from VolksTurbo :

But what I want is to send a message in connection with / msg: s

Have you ever looked at the actual code and read through changes.txt (found in the 'doc' folder of Lapper) to see all that is possible with Lapper?
I don't mind writing scripts that are (a bit) complicated, but something as basic as putting a message on the screen when someone enters, is very basic.
Not to mention the fact that these kind of wishes are useful to learn how Lapper works.

Here's version 1.01 of the Admin notify script, which sends a global message when an admin enters the server.
If you don't want the HUD to be shown, put a # at the start of this line:

openGlobalButton( "admins_present",50,1,100,5,1,-1,36,"^7Admin(s): ". $admin_status . " ^7| Last entered: " . $admin_name . " ^7| At: " . $admin_time_online );

- Download the file and save it somewhere on your computer
- Rename the file from "admin_notify.txt" to "admin_notify.lpr"
- Place the file in the 'includes' folder, found in 'bin\default\'
- Open file "addonsused.lpr" which is also in the 'includes' folder
- Add a line under 'General includes' saying: include ("./admin_notify.lpr");
- Save file "addonsused.lpr"
- Start Lapper

To add or remove admins, open file "admin.txt" which is found in the 'default' folder.
You have to state the LFS username of each admin, one per line.

Quote from VolksTurbo :

Would you do that when you enter a system administrator send a message that says "NickName connected server administrator" thanks

I already made that script, see this posting: https://www.lfs.net/forum/post/1896128#post1896128

Here's another update on the project.
I didn't got as much done this weekend as I hoped for, but still made good progress.
While testing the software, I figured it would be nice to be able to define streets as a one way or a two way direction.
So I've added that into the module to define streets with.

Once that was done, I thought about a penalty for driving into a street from the wrong direction.
So that had to be added too and then things started to go from bad to worse.
This afternoon it nearly was too much to handle and I was this close to delete all the files from my computer and give up on the project (yeah yeah, I am hot headed from time to time).
After a break I saw the light and as often, a big re-write of the code, put back all things in place again.

While doing that I've also added a counter that registers how many violations a person has open at that time.
So while every violation makes the offender vulnerable to be chased and booked within 120 seconds (and each violation within that period, will add another 120 seconds to that counter), it would also make them a bigger fish to catch for the police.
The idea is that each violation will enable 1 cop to chase and try to book you.
So with 2 open violations and a maximum of 240 seconds on the clock, 2 cops and try to chase and book you.
With 3 open violations, 3 cops can chase you, and so on and so on.

The part about how many cops can chase you and how the booking should go (of course only 1 cop can be awarded 'the kill'), has still to be written and is next up my list.

After Lapper has started, drive your car to the point you want the node to be and then type: !setnode
Then the node will stay registered for as long as Lapper keeps running.
After a restart of Lapper, you have to set the node again.
