Hello,

I am looking for solution, to have endurance race (like 36-48 hours) with AI drivers, on server hosted online (official LFS hosting)

I know that it's not possible to host AI drivers online, and they are client based.


How to to have race with bots/AI, with possibility to disconnect GUI LFS client and not lose AI bots from server?

Some headless/CLI based client that doesn't require second S3 license?

Thanks

It's not possible unfortunately as that kind of solution doesn't exist.

If you disconnect LFS client, you lose your AI-drivers from server. And if you want 33+ AI-drivers on server, you need to buy another licence for another user.

Well, technically if you can have access to another computer which can stay on for that whole race, you could do that by simply adding those AIs and then hosting that race on that computer. However you need to make sure you don't need to join to that server with account from another computer (as you can only be online one instance at a time per user).

If you only wish to have up to 32 AI-drivers on a race and have no need to join that server using another LFS instance, you don't need to buy another licence as according to LFS Terms & Conditions rule 3.1, you may install LFS on 2 computers for your own use.

Thanks, but unfortunately if i host server on notebook, and want to join on PC, i have info that user already joined server I can't join twice with same account to server.

Yes, unfortunately it's not possible. You need to buy another account and sufficient licence for that.

Although, if you don't care about mods: before 0.7A version, it was possible to allow two players on a LAN with one licence. That old version is still available so you could try setting up a LAN game and then connect two computers to one local server with one account. Then you could add AIs using that one computer and watch the race with the other.

Why not just use single player at this point? Or is multiplayer needed so other people can join?

As in singleplayer i need to use my main RIG which is a bit power consuming, and i have second notebook which can host session without issues.

Nevermind.

Do you know any solution, to re-spawn bot with same car after it's not moving for 5 minutes? Especially i am interested in spawning same car as before, as i prefer to have multiclass races. Can inSim support something like that?
