I am looking for a Blackwood (BL1X) or a Westhill (WE2X or other version of WE*) Cruise map.
Any help would be appreciated.

I also am still trying to get my server to do shops which isnt working too.

Quote from Yisc[NL] :

When you type !zone when Lapper is connected to your LFS server, you will get the coordinates.
If you want to get the current node, you can type: !node

Thank-you very much. Appreciate it

Quote from sinanju :

It will be difficult to help unless you can tell people what programming language or InSim you're going to use.

In LFSLapper ("lapper"), it's fairly easy.

You would run lapper, drive to the area you want the zone (your shop, bank, etc) to be located, type the command word "!ZONE", and you will be given X and Y co-ordinates. These are used in your code to define your zone.

The 1st part of the code would look like;

RegisterZoneAction( "BL1" , -60,106, 5 , Knocking_Shoppe,"" );

Where -60 is X, 106 is Y, and 5 is how big an area (in metres).

The "Knocking_Shoppe" would be the name of your sub-routine to run when someone enters the proscribed zone.

Example:

Sub Knocking_Shoppe()
<define what happens when you enter proscribed zone,
e.g. open Button with text, such as "Welcome to XDriftingKingx's Knocking Shoppe - all welcome">
EndSub

With other Languages/InSims, likely to be bit more complicated, especially if there's no easy way to get the X and Y co-ordinates.

Like I said in my 1st post, first you define a zone, then you run a sub-routine when someone enters the zone.

In the case of lapper, you use "RegisterZoneAction" to define your zone, then within that line of code, you have name of sub-routine, and you will have a sub-routine code which will run when a driver enters the zone.

In some cases, it would also be possible to do exactly the same with a NODE, but you can't define an area as such, just really a line that crosses the track or layout. The Finish line is a Node that has a sub-routine that runs when you finish the lap/race (e.g. give time and/or position, etc). Nodes are also used to give Split/Sector times.

Lines and objects can be placed at the Zone or Node to help define the place bit better than just an anonymous piece of track or off-track area.

So, to recap;

> define (specify X/Y co-ordinates) the area (zone/node) you want your shop (or whatever) to be on the circuit or layout
> append sub-routine code to run (what's to happen) when driver enters the defined area.

Or to put it another way, think of SatNav - you put in your (ZONE) destination, and when you get there, (SUB_ROUTINE) you get message that you've arrived.

That pretty much helps a lot. Thank-you. Umm, is there a specific code I need to make to get the co-ordinates? I forgot if it's built in LFSLapper. Thanks again.

I am still waiting for someone to help if anyone wants to.

To be completely honest with you. I do not know which one is the best one to use. Heh.

I do not know how to do the 'define x/y Zone' stuff. If I did, I wouldn't have made this post in the first place.

I am having a hard time understanding how to make shops. Can anyone explain, please?

I already knew how to do all that port, ip, password, etc stuff. I did all that before I made this and other posts. I just had trouble designing the whole thing.
I only just heard of insim and all people say: "Learn it yourself". I tried that. I didn't even understand ANY OF IT. I made a lot of posts asking for help. yes, I know I said something that didnt make sense, but,

I was really asking for some help. All I get is: "Do it yourself" or "learn it yourself" when I was just asking for help.

But no, people decide to call me lazy.

Quote from MadCatX :

There is your problem. What is the point of running a server anyway if you will not have time to maintain it?

You are probably not going to find anyone that would help you by actually setting the server up for you. People have no problem offering advise, tips, code snippets and stuff because that is something they can do in their own time and there is no commitment involved. Working with other people on something is a completely different matter, even more so when the deal sound like "I need you to do all the actual work for me".

You might have a much better luck if you ask specific questions about the problems you are having.

By busy, I mean like, busy maintaining the server.

I am still seeking help - even after 1 month of looking for help on the insim server. I hope someone helps me this time.

Please do not recommend I do it myself, as I am having so much trouble getting anything done. I am too busy to do it myself and just want to be able to make a server :/

I am still trying to find someone to help me build a server with LFS_External. No-one has even been doing anything - yes, I know people can be busy, but people offered to help and haven't even done anything. I try and get them to help, but no-one's done anything. So, I am seeking help AGAIN! so if you want to help, send me a PM.

I am looking for someone to help me with the entire server - it's called "[AUC] Cruise Server" (without the quotes)

Thanks if anyone can help. I also have a skype if you would like to know what it is, it's Evanescence-Wolf and my display name will be Floof

I am trying to figure out how to add a Autosave feature that saves every 6000ms and I do not want it to show: "Server saved" every 6000ms. Is there a way?

Trying to figure out how to make parking zones in Black Wood (full map).
Can someone please help me? thanks!

I am trying to figure out what code to use for shops in insim - I have put an insim circle to where I want a shop to be, but I do not know how to add an ID to the code. Does anyone know how?

Thanks!

Quote from ab12 :

If you want a cruise server i have to make your own insim. Sorry for my bad english

Im trying to find out HOW to do it on a LFS BOUGHT SERVER. But I cannot find out HOW to do it.

I'm trying to find how to install InSim for a LFS Server (I have bought one from LFS) and dont know what to do. I looked at the Insim on how to put it on the LFS bought server.

DO you need to have some code or do you need to do something else?
Please help.

You need to assign it to a button - it should work :3

Heya, everyone, I have made a new server that some people may want to come to.

I know there are a lot of great servers, but I wanted to see what it was like to set it up.
Was harder than I thought. So I am also asking some people to help me set it up.

Been working on the map more than the InSim and cruise stuff lol.
If you are interested in helping, please be reasonable and nice and clear on instructions to help so I can learn more about the insim and other stuff needed for cruises.

If you know where to find the stuff for cruising stuff like:
- Police
- Shops
- Deliveries
- Tow
- Cash
etc

I'd appreciate some help. Thanks!

Heya, everyone. I am looking for someone to help me set up a cruise server in LFS - I am fairly new at this. Any kind of help will be appreciated. In return, I'll make you an admin on the server

Thanks!
