Hello Race Organisers,

After discussions and testing on another thread some new features are now available.

If you restart your 0.7F host you will have access to the new features.

Using the new /grid command you can:
- prevent users from removing other people from the grid or changing anyone's position
- prevent users from changing the grid at all, even adding or removing themselves
- specify a number of grid slots that are fixed and not rearranged on a race restart
- specify whether real or AI drivers are allowed to join

Also there is a new command /h that gives access to 'local' commands, on the host.


How to use the /grid command

/grid open/self/lock (can non-admins join / leave the grid or move others around in game setup screen)

/grid static X (affects grid rearrangement on race restart after qualifying or finished race)

The first X grid slots are protected from auto rearranging when the race restarts.
The first X grid slots are unaffected by the result of qualifying or race finish, on restart.

/grid real no/yes (can real players join in game or game setup screen)

/grid ai no/yes (can AI players join in game or game setup screen)

You can also get the current settings:

/grid - show the current grid lock setting
/grid static - show the current static setting
/grid ai - show the current ai setting
/grid real - show the current real setting


How to use the /h command

For ordinary hosts this doesn't allow many new possibilities but does give access to a few commands.

/h player Host Name (change host player name)
/h o Message (send an IS_MSO message on the host InSim)
/h say Hello (write a message as if typed by the host player)
