Auto Indicator switch off
Just made a little applicatoin for those of you that get annoyed with the indicators staying on for about 3 laps haha!

To turn on the indicator, simply use the command
/o indicator left
OR
/o indicator right

After a set amount of time, the indicator will automatically switch off (defined in the setup.txt file).

default config:

InSim_ip = 127.0.0.1
InSim_port = 39999
InSim_pass =

// indicate timeout is in seconds
indicate_timeout = 20

// indicate settings (if you dont have standard LFS settings)
indicate_left = press 7
indicate_right = press 8
indicate_off = press 0

Uploaded updated version: now works on mutliplayer - oops

You need to type

/insim 39999

or a different port number, if you have changed it in the settings.txt
Can you detect steering angles via InSim? If so, it might be a better idea to simply wait for the player steering to pass a certain threshold value and when he straightens out the wheel again you turn the indicator off, just like it works in a real car.
