Hello Lapperusers,

After getting many questions about how to setup the AutoX Startlights.
I will publish a example script, which is also available in the current LFSLapper version.

###############################
#HOW TO INSTALL THE ADDON
###############################

• -Be Sure you have the latest version of LFSLapper: https://www.lfs.net/forum/thread/58433-Release.
  
• -Open the file and change the extension of the file to: .LPR
  
• -Save the file in the 'includes' folder (\bin\default\includes)
  
  
• -Open the "addonsused.LPR" file (\bin\default\includes\addonsused.LPR) and add the following lines:
  

include( "./AutoX_StartLight_Example.lpr");

-Start LFSLapper

###############################
#HOW TO SET THE LIGHTS
###############################

• -Open AutoX editor (Shift+U)
  
• -Add some Startlights ( Control >> Startlights)
  
• -Change the indentifier (0 - 63)
  

As you can see the lights arent working. Thats because you have to optimise the layout.

• -Click on 'MORE' button.
  
• -Click on 'OPTIMISE' button.
  

The lights are lit green now.

Now type command !slid. And change the Index/Indentifier/Mode/Light

• -Index ( 149 = AutoX lights or 240 = Track Startlight )
  
• -Indentifier (Indentifier of the light you want to change the light)
  
• -Modes (common is 5)
  

Thanks

Somebody asked be something about this script and while playing with the buttons, I managed to crash Lapper, which lead to this being written into the logfile:

Sadly I haven't been able to reproduce this crash, so no idea what went wrong exactly.

I made a small improvement to the script, by limiting the user input to only the valid values for each field.
When an invalid value is entered, a warning is shown telling the user what the valid valies for that field are.

Changelog for V1.1:

- Restricted user input for each field to only valid values for that field, otherwise display a warning

Change the extension of the file to .lpr and add it to addonsused.lpr to be able to use it.

oke thanks Yisc[NL], for updating this script.

I will add this to my buglist, to see i can find anything that might cause this crash.
