Beeing an LFS S2 owner for over 6 years (Join Date 2005-08-05) now and recently rediscovered it. Back in 2008 I joined up with iRacing when it first went puplic and pretty much lost all my interest in LFS.
But while beeing bored during the holidays I decided to fire up LFS again. Discovered the 0.6B upgrade and the new track configurations and was immediately thinking that this could be great for cruising.
And I came right in time for your server reset and the new insim stuff, which is great btw. Now you really got me hooked. It's really a lot of fun to join one of your servers for a bit of cruising and maybe a chase or something. Its just a very welcome change to the usual sim racing I do.
I have been driving over 2500 kms on your server in the last couple of days, which is quite a lot compared to my overall 25000 LFS kms online
So far I have only be driving as a robber. Had some (I think) good chases.
I try my best to drive clean, as a long time iRacer I have been reprogrammed and avoidable contact with another car is something which really hurts me lol. In a chase, of course, contact is not avoidable, but I will not do any silly stuff like trying to overtake a pack of slower cars by going right trough the middle or driving in the opposite lane for an extended period of time especially not in place where you can't see a lot of the track and oncoming traffic. So as a Cop you don't have to risk everything if you are chasing me. You will get your chance to take me out
Now I'm looking forward to try the role of a cop. But I just don't feel confident enough to do a proper job as a cop. First of all I still have a few questions regarding the functions and rights of a cop but I will open a thread in the correct place for this questions and for the second part I am still writing my autohotkey macro thingy to control everthing with the nice wifipad app McGherkin did introduce.
I have already done the graphic for the wifiapp
What do you think? I plan to make one also for a TOW vehicle and for normal robber use. Did I miss something for the Cops? Or do you have suggestions for other buttons? And btw the name CruiseBox is just a placeholder.
So... As you can see I sometimes get carried away a little bit. While I ment to only write a simple hello all post I am writing for 20 minutes now... lol
Cheers
