Hi, is there a way for mouse steering to override the bike steering itself? using mouse it feels like the bike tries to correct itself and it's annoying, can u add a seperate control setup for it?

Hello all. I’m creepingwing just downloaded the demo. I’m from uk.

Welcome [LCS] Cruise Server is best demo server

Context:
I am making a script which backups user data and some lfs lapper stored values into .txt files.

Problem:
With LFS Hosting, I won't know the exact directory, I can just go back or forward a folder.

In the cmd console we could just do .\ to stay within the current directory, or ..\ to go back a folder, but it seems like that doesn't work in LFSLapper. (it won't create a file).

Example directory: (my script is in LFSLapper/includes)
$Directory = "..\Databases";

Temporary Solution:

However, this works if I put the exact directory in (but I won't be able to do this in LFS Hosting):
$Directory = "C:\Games\LFSLapper V7.0.6.3\bin\default\Databases";

Question:
Does anyone have a way to create a .txt file within a directory that they are unfamiliar of, using the CreateFile() function?

I know this thread is old, but has anyone got around this yet without installing other 3rd party software?

Hi!

I made that dash for RB4... You can check it out and download in the following link http://forum.city-driving.co.uk/showthread.php?tid=30771

It looks great but only works for LFS version 0.6U

I'm on 0.6T, would it be possible to port it to this ver.?

Such a bummer i got so excited xd

Dashboard Request: Audi Sport Quattro - Car: RB4

Sadly there is not enough space between the two big dials to place 9 indicators and a digital time. The turbo meter fits nicely at the top though.

(OLD) LFSLazy AE86 gauge ported from Vano Paniashvili's old AE86 mod (I had permission from him to share ported dash).

AE86 Gauges for XRG/T. Turbo on XRT is a bit lazy sorry, if anyone can improve it pls do xd

e.g. LEFT_XRG = Gauge for XRG for Left-hand drivers. In the image I am right-hand driver (UK) so i use RIGHT_XRG and Right_XRT.

Use the appropriate gauge from your respective driver's side otherwise the gauges will not be aligned with the dashboard.

Only works up to ver. 97 (Jul 7 2018)

Also coloured linear RPM is cool.

Thanks, it actually looks much cleaner than setting RegisterScheduleAction 60 times lel.

Can't believe I hadn't thought of this

Problem:
1. Every second the timer is supposed to execute, it only executes once on lapper start.
2. $mList - It reports as 0 entries even though I'm online.
3. Even if I remove every line except the first one ( to report the time ) it only runs once.
#. Error logs say nothing

Has anyone encountered this problem before? it works for me for scheduled actions of 1 minute tho...


Temp fix: wrote a RegisterScheduleAction for every second from 00 to 59 T_T

Hey, sorry for the late reply I just got back to this post. I'm using global Set/GetStoredValue( "UserName_Cash_" . $userName ) as a 'reserve' so when player's connect it goes into their wallet. On the plus side I can also use it to store mail for when they come online.

Nevertheless thank you very much for the script, I will be sure to use it when I need to change UserStoredValue(s) again, and I'm sure it'll be very helpful for other users to implement into their server, as it has done wonders for mine.

I know I can't always depend on global stored values as the table has to make a new row every time I name a new variable. I'm planning on scripting player contracts, memberships and insurance soon and I can't imagine how many more variables I have to name.

New Problem:

SetUserStoredValue cannot be used on an offline user...If you can GET why shouldn't you be able to SET? For the record GetUserStoredValue works...

I've tried it with other stored values other than "Cash" too, but it just can't Set stored values for any offline users.

Does this mean I have to resort to using SetStoredValue( "UserName_Cash_" . $IDUser ) instead?

Thanks a lot , it's working flawlessly!

Now time for me to write the dividend script cuz rip some people missed out on the money today

Sorry I forgot to mention it, but it actually starts with:


I haven't altered anything except added those lines of code (see previous reply) to my Event OnConnect. I think those pieces of code are enough, it's just that the algorithm seems to be wrong and I'm having trouble applying the right algorithm (just can't wrap my head around it ) so it only registers unique usernames. As far as error logs go it doesn't say anything's wrong (from the ERR.log file in bin/default/logs).

Also $userName is already declared in the beginning, and should not be the problem as it returns my username when registered (it basically registers me as a new user every reload )

Regarding starting with 2:
I had trouble with it starting at $i = 0 so I just moved up 1. The problem isn't where it starts but how it executes. I think the main problem might be the parameters, or the order of the IF statements...

I also manually set the stored-values "REGISTER_COUNTER" and "UserName_Number_" . $i
if I find duplicates after connecting/reloading.

CONTEXT: (If it helps...)
I need a script that runs at 5pm, everyday, that distributes the player's dividend (gives them some money from the total profit) relative to their shareholding from the companies they have partial ownership of, even when they're offline. This is where listing all usernames from storedvalue.dbs comes in:
(All in a WHILE Loop with $i = 1 and $register_counter = "REGISTER_COUNTER")

If they're offline, I can send them a mail by a:

IF ( GetUserStoredValue("HAVEMAIL") == 1 ) THEN PrivMsg GetStoredValue("MAIL_" . $userName)

if they do receive dividends while offline. These investors have every right to know how much dividend they receive at 5pm, even if they come online at 6pm.

Problem 2: This is the code so far, but it keeps registering the same user (me) every !reload. The "REGISTER_COUNTER" also increases by 1 as a consequence too. And yes, some of it is from your reg_system.txt.

As the title says,
Problem:
I need to distribute a large sum of money (which occurs on a regular interval) for all players (users) in my server whether they are online or offline. One of the problems is that all the users' and server data are stored in storedvalue.dbs (located in "./bin/default/Databases" ).

GetListOfPlayers() - only returns list of all players online ...
GetListOfUsersGroup - doesn't work for storedvalue.dbs ...

Is there a way to retrieve all usernames of players in storedvalue.dbs so I can #do something# with their stored data?

e.g.: (This is what I'm trying to do)

Note: No, I am not asking for a full script lol, I just need a function that can draw all usernames from the current storedvalue.dbs database.

I can confirm that I get the same error with GetPlayerVarByUcid. I removed it, and it returns the $Days value. The second problem is that it needs to execute a command that bans a specific user, which is where the Ucid of the player comes in...

WHILE ( $plyNum < $mCount )
$thisPlayer = GetPlayerInfo($mList[$plyNum]);
$uName = $mList[$plyNum];
$uUCID = $thisPlayer["UCID"];
$uNick = $thisPlayer["NickName"];
$uUser = $thisPlayer["UserName"];
$PanelRowHeight = 5;
$Prefix = $uUCID . "_";

openPrivTextButton( "BAN_" . $Prefix ,$ModBtnX+80,$ModBtnY + 2 + ( $PanelRowHeight * ( $plyNum+1 ) ),20,$PanelRowHeight,5,16,"^3No. of Days?","",3, BanPanel_Ban );

It works for 1 step buttons, such as Pitlane and Kick... because I don't need to input 2 arguments to execute the cmdLFS, 1 being the username and 2 being the number of days.

It also doesn't help that the backcalled sub for executing the text button can only contain 2 arguments, I can't add more than:

BanPanel_Ban ( $KeyFlags, $Days) or ($KeyFlags, $id).

The current state of the sub:

Sub BanPanel_Ban ( $KeyFlags, $Days ) #If >2 arguments, Error: Incorrect number of arguments.
#$Ucid = ToNum(split( $id,"_",1 )); # Error: empty string in ToNum function.
writeline ( "DEBUG: " . $Days );
$Cash = ToNum( ToString( $Days ) );
$userName = GetCurrentPlayerVar("UserName");
closePrivButton( "BAN_" . $Prefix );
#SetPlayerVar( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "UserName" ) , "Cash" , Round((ToNum( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "Cash" ) + $Cash )),2) ); # Error: Parameter is wrong.
GlobalMsg( "Test $Days: ^6" . $Days );
PrivMsg( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "UserName" ), "Value: " . $Cash ); # Error: Parameter is wrong.
Cruise_HUD( $userName );
#Cruise_HUD( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "UserName" ) );
BanPanel_Close ();
EndSub

(I put a # where it doesn't execute or generates an error in the log file.)

Thanks, so far I have:
openPrivTextButton( "BAN_UI_Days",90,100,20,10,5,16,"^3Input: No. of Days","^7###",3, BanPanel_Ban );

Sub BanPanel_Ban ( $KeyFlags, $Days )

$Cash = ToNum( ToString( $Days ) );
$userName = GetCurrentPlayerVar("UserName");
SetPlayerVar( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "UserName" ) , "Cash" , Round((ToNum( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "Cash" ) + $Cash )),2) );
GlobalMsg( "Test $Days: ^6" . $Days );
PrivMsg( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "UserName" ), "Value: " . $Cash );
Cruise_HUD( $userName );
Cruise_HUD( GetPlayerVarByUCID( $Ucid , "UserName" ) );
ModPanel_Close ();
BanPanel_Close ();
EndSub

Problem 1:
The private button doesn't close even with closebuttonregex. It has infinite duration...

Problem 2:
Nothing happens after I enter text.

P.S. I read your ban script but the problem is I can't create new files in the directory (LFS hosting). This means I can't retrieve offline banned players... so I have to do it under the original ban system. The openprivtextbutton should allow user input for # days for execute by cmdLFS.

openPrivTextButton( "dopm_message",61,56,78,8,5,80,"^3Type message (up to 50 chars)","^3Click here to edit message",50,pm_text_input );

^^^
Found that in Gai-Luron's who.lpr.txt.
- The missing variable happens to be duration.

Problem:
I need a ban button for my admin panel that asks for "How many days?" which requires user input of up to 3 digits, before executing the cmdLFS function.

After looking through examples and some testing I can't figure out what the "5" means.

Also can anyone guide me onto the full format and values of a openPrivTextButton/opentextbutton?

It's not as similar to openPrivButton as I thought it was...

Thank you.

Brief:

Well someone asked me today if it was possible to change the lap time format from:

Minutes.Seconds.Milliseconds
to
Minutes:Seconds.Milliseconds

As you can see, barely any difference lol.

So I was wondering if it's possible to edit the NumToMSH function?

Or can anyone think of another method to approach this?

THANK YOU SO MUCH IT WORKED LOL. I just had to fix the dot rip.

So at that specific point, the required script:

GlobalMsg("Direction: " . GetPlayerVar( $userName, "Direction" ) . "."); #Print User Direction
GlobalMsg("Direction: " . GetPlayerVar( $userName, "Heading" ) . "."); #Print User Direction
IF ( Round(GetPlayerVar( $userName, "Direction" ), 2) >= 160 && Round(GetPlayerVar( $userName, "Direction" ), 2) <= 240 )
THEN
GlobalMsg( "Calculated Wrong Way Direction" );
cmdLFS( "/pitlane " . GetPlayerVar( $userName , "UserName") );
GlobalMsg( GetPlayerVar( $userName, "NickName") . " ^2 pitlaned for wrong way!");
ENDIF

I can't seem to print out Direction or Heading...

GlobalMsg("Direction: " . ToNum( GetPlayerVar( $userName, "Direction" ) ) "."); #Print User Direction
GlobalMsg("Direction: " . ToNum( GetPlayerVar( $userName, "Heading" ) ) "."); #Print User Direction

I've tried using $ instead of quotes, I've tried without ToNum, just what am i doing wrong.

What are the units of Direction?

I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere so...

Brief:
I'm making a hotlap server, but has some rpg elements to it for people who are spectating/parking/fooling around in car park.

Objective:
So I'm trying to write a script that pitlanes on wrong way at a certain point (see image for wrong way direction). At the moment, I can RegisterNodeAction and can execute a "pitlane" command, the problem is, I cannot specify a direction...

Script:
RegisterNodeAction( "BL1", 339, ReverseCheck, "" );

Sub ReverseCheck ( $userName, $ZoneID )

IF ( $Mode == "Cruise" )
THEN

GlobalMsg( "Player is Exiting Pits" );
IF ( GetPlayerVar( $userName, $Direction ) != "0" )
THEN

GlobalMsg( "Attempting to Spectate Player for Wrong Way" );
cmdLFS( "/pitlane " . GetPlayerVar( $userName , "UserName") );
HERE I JUST ADD MESSAGES AND FINES

ENDIF

ENDIF

EndSub

Comment:
As you can see there's a problem with indicating the direction, and the manual only says:
"Direction: 0 = positive y-direction."

Solutions?
Are there any other variables I can use? How would you approach this problem?

(And no, I need cruise mod lol)

Hellos amigos )

Quote from DANIEL-CRO :

Yesterday I updated my version of Lazy to work with test patch. However dashboard is now drawn in 512x512 (before 256x256). I also did required changes that dashboard is drawn at correct resolution, however that required me to scale up all individual png textures by 2. Also multiply all x and y positions. Downside is that all current gauges should be manually converted prior to use. I really want to do that automatically to keep all current gauges compatible.

@DANIEL_CRO

So will the oil/engine temp gauges get fixed in the new update, so they can be shown underneath the dials?

The same issue also exists with the handbrake and lights, dunno if that's to do with LFSLazy or LFS.

*EDIT: nvm I managed to move the oil and temp gauges to a place under the RPM gauge by setting them to (1,0) and working from there.
