not possible, the info is not available in insim

If there are OnFalseStart events, lfs must know somehow in some way that the red lights are still on or that the lights have not turned green yet?

How could OnFalseStart events exists otherwise?

The OnFalseStart events are spawned when Lapper receives a Penalty packet via InSim, so its LFS itself that determines a false start and Lapper is only responding to that event.

So lfs knows when the light is'nt green yet in some way.

Its a data, why cant it be processed by the lapper like any other data?

Olivier

its a nice idea
but not included in the insim yet.( i think)

so i hope the devs gonna update the insim in the future.

InSim is basically an outgoing data stream that the LFS devs wrote to encourage community involvement. It was not designed as an API or an interface to modify in-game variables or affect LFS directly. The development of the InSim functions was largely driven by community requests through the LFS Improvements forum (http://www.lfsforum.net/forumdisplay.php?f=8), but as it takes time to implement the functionality, it's been at the developers discretion as to whether a particular feature gets in.

With regards to false starts, this was addressed in the IS_PEN packet which covers the following penalties:

PENR_UNKNOWN, // 0 - unknown or cleared penalty
PENR_ADMIN, // 1 - penalty given by admin
PENR_WRONG_WAY, // 2 - wrong way driving
PENR_FALSE_START, // 3 - starting before green light
PENR_SPEEDING, // 4 - speeding in pit lane
PENR_STOP_SHORT, // 5 - stop-go pit stop too short
PENR_STOP_LATE, // 6 - compulsory stop is too late

If you're writing your own InSim app, or modifying the Lapper code (not the .lpr files, but the .cs source code), then you could probably send an TINY_MCI request to get user data sent back to your app and process it to find speed/heading etc, but why bother? The user was moving so he got penalised, and knowing if he was going 30km/h doesn't matter at all.

I suppose the biggest question to answer is "What exectly do you want to do if someone jumps the start?". Answer that and we'll tell you if it's possible.

Also, try using the tool InSim Sniffer that you run alongside the LFS Server to see what InSim packets are being sent during a race to determine what your InSim app can react to.

That is a very clear and complete answer Krayy thanks a lot.

Is there a way to use LFS stat command in a .lpr?
(stats from LFSworld)

I tryed:
($user is a valid lfs username)

But the server is doiing the command so the car/track is unknown.
How?

EDIT: Also, i dont know how to use getPlayerInfo().

Hi,
Its already in lapper
Try !who and you see all PB's on LFSWorld from all connected players.

And with " /ws trackname carname pb username " you can use this in lapper.

It work's when i type it

Sorry, but doesn't work.

I cant get this to work in lapper i tryed:
I think that for this to work, the user have to "say it" in chat.
There is no function like playersay($username, "have a good day") so we could make the player say /ws XFG pb iol(qc) ?

I would really enjoy to be able to get stats with /ws in .lpr

Is it possible or we can only use the playervar?

Olivier

All !ps vars gives me 0.


Like those:

Any idea why?

Hello,

Did you set your pubstatIdk in config file?

I know there is more then:

Hi,
A while ago, Sinanju made a post in the config help. It was about making your own buttons to choose your language of LFSLapper.

Quote from sinanju :

I'd like to be able to offer a language choice using buttons as part of my HELP instructions - see attached mock-up.

Apart from using the !myconfig command, which also gives other choices that I don't want to include, is there anyway of doing this?

I´m now busy with making LFSLapper fully graphical and implementing it to my website. It would be great if I can also make an button in my own menu for choosing your language.

Is it possible?

Thanks!

Tim

i belive that there is a player var that can be set... idk what it is though

Just use setplayervar or setcurrentplayver like this:

setcurrentplayervar("idlang", "fr"); # change to french
setcurrentplayervar("idlang", "en"); # change to english

Many thanks,

Hi,
I have another question.
My registration script to register an account for my website in LFSLapper is almost finished, but now I've got a problem.

If the username is MyName, the function: GetCurrentPlayerVar("UserName"); gives me myname instead of MyName.
Is it possible to keep the capital letters? This would be really great.

Thanks in advance,
Tim

Edit: Ahh I can't get it to work, the Language menu. Could you guys help me with this please?

What I'm trying is to make the current language blue (^6) and the other languages white (^7). This script is inside a Sub.

Try This :]

Thanks! It wasn't working immediately, but after some recoding I managed to do this:

The reason I made a separate Sub for all languages, is because it didn't worked to have an SetLang("...") in a privButton. I don't know why..

But it works now!
Thanks for the help!

Quote from Mustangman759 :

The message indicates that the Language entry for "id" does not exists. So, if your script has:
, then it's basically saying that you have no language entry called "main_midnight".

If you are using a variable to specify the lang entry, make sure that the var is valid (case sensitive). Also post the code around the error and we'll see what we can do
