As discussed in the thread http://www.lfsforum.net/showthread.php?t=65036 I think it would be a good addition to be able to get IS_CPP packets sent when the host is a dedicated server, and also IS_CCH packets when a user hits the Tab key or changes view (V) when viewing another player. At present when using a deidcated host, you get an IS_CCH packet when chnaging local view or using Tab to view another player, but you only get the packet once until you return to your local view. So we can tell if you are viewing someone else, but not whom.
The reason for this is so that we can create InSim applications that can determine what car a player is viewing (ViewPLID in IS_CPP) so that we can display information to the viewing player about the viewed player such as split times, F1 style gap and lap counters etc. This would be particularly useful if we are allowing spectators into the rcae server.
