hello,

Is there a way to increase the LFSLapper performance.
Because my lapper is slow with showing buttons etc, when we have some guests in the server.

Is it a option to make the functionnames or other strings shorter, for example :openPrivButton to openPvBn.
That means i have to change all my scripts ( +60 files XD).

No, you can't increase the performance of Lapper.
I don't know what script you have, but even when my servers are full, Lapper never gave a performance problem.
So maybe loops are giving you troubles?

If you have something that updates all the time, you get the performance problem.

I made a little bit of code to let me see the overall distance for some of my layouts, which showed distance updating as I went round...



... and I left this code in when I loaded a new layout on one of my servers - it only needed about 5 or 6 people to be on the layout, and lapper 'lagged' by in excess of 10 seconds - such as trying to get !top command, open or close a button, etc.

Another time, I had my drift scoreboard working giving live update of drift angle and score on one of my servers (without the distance code), and same thing happened when a few people on track at same time.

Fortunately, no problems if I use something like your pitboard, which only updates at sector splits.

Does it matter? Nothing to stop you putting something like "opb", then search and replace this with "openPrivButton". Realise this isn't exactly what you want, but...?

I have 1 event sometimes 2 events that has a continue loop.

Just to be curious
Lapper has to scan all your LPR textfiles. Will it load your code/script faster when you change (openPrivButton to opb) for example.
because lapper has to scan less text than.

Doesn't seem to make a difference, even when using add-on scripts. You would have thought that the CatchEvent's and CatchSub's would slow things down, but they don't appear to.
