Since you've not been very clear exactly what you want, you might want to take a look at http://www.lfsforum.net/showth ... =28815&highlight=drag

If that's not what you're after can you be more specific than "traifc light system or somthign simular" [sic]? What do you want this system to be capable of doing?

Some code for doing something similar in Lapper.

I've put it as an Admin function, but this could easily be changed.

First part for Event OnLeaveRace()

Event OnLeaveRace()  # Player event
    openPrivButton( "easyklikadmin",1,90,20,8,2,-1,32,langEngine( "%{main_easyklikadmin}%" ),OnClickAdmin );
EndEvent

Then add further sub-routine

Sub OnClickAdmin( $KeyFlags,$id )
    IF( UserInGroup( "admin",$userName ) == 1 )
      THEN
    openPrivButton( "timer",70,70,50,10,10,10,32,"^7Race will start in approx ^1(%cpt%) ^7seconds",OnClikCloseTimer );
      ENDIF
EndSub

Then to close timer button automatically when timer runs down

Sub SE_OnClikCloseTimer() # Sinanju Event
            closePrivButton ("timer")
EndSub

Finally, in the LANG "EN" section

main_easyklikadmin = "^1Admin";

See how you get on.

Made new countdown timer that can be used with LFSLapper.

See Lapper section of the forum for code.

I've loaded video onto youtube - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ex2mos68QqM - to show what it looks like.

Quite a few months ago, I loaded new Nvidia drivers. It all went pear shape. So I deleted them, and put older drivers back on. Still same. Put still older drivers on. No better. Newer drivers. Nope.

I think my Geforce 7600 GS AGP 8x graphix card is dying.

Don't have funds to be able to go out and get new one.
