But if I am racing I may miss the messages or I have messages blocked and miss the percentage text if only showing for 5 secs. I then wouldn't even know there was a vote to restart taking place.
I think the percentage text should also be position editable so admins can place it in a similar place to Conedodgers voting message so it doesn't get in the way of any other information on screen.
Just taken a screenshot of the Voting System Conedodgers use, hope no-one minds.
Can you update whats in PB.txt
Database of best personal lap times, players and their cars
Format of file is as follows:
line 1 - Player NickName
line 2 - Car Name
line 3 - Lap Time in format MM.SS.HH
line 4 - Track Name
line 5 - 1st Split Time
line 6 - 2nd Split Time
line 7 - 3rd Split Time
I have 15 lines per Racer now and only 7 descibed in docs
NB Any chance of us using GTR in !Near like we can with !Top GTR
Edit Found an issue. If a racer is on his own in qualifying and votes to Restart it says vote cancelled, surley 1 Racer on his own who votes is a 100% vote to restart.
Hello Gai-Luron,
thank you for your latest additions to Lapper.
However, with the latest version /http command doesn't seem to work anymore, i checked the cfg 10 times and i can't see any problem...
With older version /http still works fine.
I would much appreciate if you could clarify if it's me or Lapper doing something wrong.
Thanks alot!
A character string, it's an unique id to identify one messagebox/button. Random string
Look at insim.txt in doc LFS folder. In final release, i explain more
Obsolete command, now it's:
/pbut unique_id,L,T,W,H,I,Time,Button_Style,message,"cmd"
"cmd" is optional, only for clickable button
"cmd" is a quoted Lapper command string, multicommand separated by :
Ex:
"/pm you click on unique_id button:/cpbut unique_id"
/cpbut = close personnal button.
Work, look if you have last config file with /pbut . Multiline message now is separated by '&' . '§' not to be used.
Due to many change in messagebox/button command. Take the config file provided with last beta version
detect if there was a crash (spin of a car) on track and give out (is possible with spin detection)
1) a auto-message or button somewhere on the low right of screen for everyone containing the name of the car which crashed (is possible as i could see in the config)
2) give out the command "/ai SAFETYCAR" (did not find it, is this possible. i think so its just a normal lfs-command, "/ai" right?)
3) check if everyone is below a certain speed or better if everyone is running with pitlimiter after X seconds after a crash? and if one is not using pit-limiter by that time give out a warning and after X+Y seconds give out a drive through penalty for that driver (did not find that, is this possible?)... maybe this could be solved with something similar to the "too slow detection" in the oposite way or maybe with something like the "acceleration detection" just with "max-top speed".... needs to be admin triggered or automated after a certain command is given out
is it possible to have the same with restriction also for tires? like if i have a R2 tire restriction on this track (everyone MUST use R2 tires), lapper checks the cars if they have wrong tires when exiting pits and also give out penalties when a car is changing to wrong tires during a race
can it give out a msg to an admin if a car is resets (space bar) when the server allows resetting?
I don't think AutoRestartRaceMn = 2; is working but will test more tomorrow. Edit Yes it does sorry
NB 1: Could you please add Admins are exempt from Idle Variable. Meaning they are not forced to spectate, if you just let us add
AuthIdleAdmin = Admin|@John Doe; or similar in Idle Options that will work fine I am sure.
NB 2: Could we also have !Near GTR added please.
NB 3: I think FTP could do with some additions like only update every 5 mins or at end of race or whatever as FTP gets hammered as its updating everytime PB.txt is updated which is not really needed. See what you think on this one.
Bug: My servers are not showing Voting allowed in Server Display Listing, showing QMP and should be VQMP as voting is allowed. Looks like Lapper is disabling this when Master Server requests info.
Bug: Voting system, if we have 4 ppl on track and driver 1 & 2 vote but 20 secs later driver 1 OR 2 votes again it restarts voting back to as if no one has even voted. So round and round we go in a never ending loop if 1 driver keeps voting. Once a driver has voted his vote should be ignored until voting times out.
I haven't looked at lapper for a long time. It's grown up nicely!
I see spin detection as an option in the config file. Would it be possible to add flag detection? Just yellows would be fine although blue would be good too.
