Yes, I change to 1,2,4,8,16.... and it works as it should. Thanks a lot for this tip.
Well, learning by doing
.
I did a lot of bit operations exercises at school but this mistake it quite a beginner fault...

Well, I still have problems with the ShowLights. There are not doing what the game itself does. For Example, when I pull the handbrake during driving, 3 or 4 flags goes on. A really curios behaviour 
.
Well, I going to bed and think about it. Tomorrow I going to check my code and read books about 4 Byte bit operations. I guess, there I have a understanding problem

.Great
yes, that was my mistake.
When I press the "Pit Limiter" now, it works. Okay, the ABS and TC lamps goes on but that a problem that I can fix
Thanks a lot David

DashLights OutGauge Problem (Language C)
Hello,
I try to write a C-program to get the LFS-UDP-Packets of LFS to put them to my UART Interface.
All variables like Gear or Brake etc. works fine. I got them from the packet per 'memcpy' and I print there out to console.
But the "dash lights lamps" are always 'on' immaterial what I do (see attachment picture and source code).
I try to make a simple bit operations for each flags.
I mean, bit operations are quite simple like ( x & 1). That's it but it doesn't work.
Could you tell me, where is my mistake? Thanks in advance.
Here is my source code:

At the replies of today:
Since Z25 is out there are a few of changes at the sending UDP-Packet for any OutGauge-Device.
I read it at the <lfs_directory\docs\InSim.txt>
Z25:
Here the old version (Z and below):
This means, you have to change the source code of the GI.exe or any other OutGauge-Software (if it allowed) to the new order of the UDP-Packet. I guess, that's the reason why the software not function as it should.
I try to build a UDP-Server for Z25 to use my AVR-USB-Board but it is not so easy for me at the moment.
Sorry for my bad english

Confirm Penalty Button
Hi LFS-Team.
I have a small improvement suggestion:
Please install (for example at control Menu) a "confirm penalty" button to switch away the messages "30 seconds penalty for jump-start", "Drive Through Penalty" etc.
Because the message is all over the screen like the yellow flag and it is sometimes annoying (especially 30 or 45 sec penalty messages) to see these until the race is over.
It would be nice when the message get small and 'jump' to to middle-top of screen (for example above the virtual mirror) after you confirm that.
Thanks a lot

Edit: Of course, I read the "Suggested improvements log" thread but I didn't find it there
