Is there a real racing team/brand that uses similar to LFS' rev.lights system (out<inside>out)? It's pretty weird in LFS :(
Fixed colors (textures) for individual LEDs won't make it an easy tweak, but it would be really useful to have different (optional) rev.lights schemes:

1) Outside >> Inside << Outside
2) Left >> Right
3) Half >> Full >> Flashing

But what's inside>out, left>right and half>full>flashing all about. Does he want it to look different from external views, or when looking from the left or right? Does he want the lights to be half brightness at times? Obviously it's a lost in translation thingy, and he's much better at English then I am at Estonian, but I'm still confused.

What I can understand is, that he finds weird, that the BF1 rev light go from outside to inside, but not from left to right.

No, most likely it's just some licensed guys are stuck in "over roof" view of their XF GTI.


It's Rev/gear-change LEDs, how many other "rev-lights" are there?
Inside>Out, Left>Right.. sounds like direction to me.

So, what do you think of sequence of appearance of that light emitting diodes which represent an upper range of engine's revolitions per/minute, on that steering wheels of formula cars? Is that more clear?


PS/OFF If a racing driver / engineer gives great suggestion by just looking at some telemetry / screens / movies, would you bash)? That "demo" status does not mean there is no license, nor even that the person ever tried LFS. So if you want to go off-topic - PM that person or moderator.

Hi there Bob!

Don't worry everybody, my question / suggestion (and LFS) is fully legitimate ;)

You are as Demo Racer in the forum. That's the problem.

When you have the Code, why aren't you S2 licenced in forum?

Why? Because I'm here to mess topics with off-topics jabber!
Why don't you PM me about it?

Btw, looks like you've seen my very first post (question) in this forum, didn't you?
