First InSim move

[M.M.L.]

Hello. This year I finish high school and I got the title of technician for computer. I studied programming for 4 years (Pascal, C, C++ and C#) and I want to make my first Insim aplication that should make server statistics. (For each player: Top speed at diferent track, total laps, laps on each track... One file for each player). I read a bit about it on the forum and I was able to connect to server but still unable to manage with statistics. Help me to make first insim moves. Thank you very much

namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

// Create new InSim object
InSim insim = new InSim();

// Initailize InSim
insim.Initialize(new InSimSettings {
Host = "127.0.0.1", // Host where LFS is runing
Port = 29999, // Port to connect to LFS through
Admin = "xxx", // Optional game admin password
});

// Send message to LFS
insim.Send("/msg Hello, InSim!");

}
}
}

You should read the InSim.txt file shipped with LFS. It's basically a C header file and it describes in detail all the packets used by InSim. This file itself shoud provide you with enough info.

You'll have a bit of a hard time getting telemetry readings for InSim. InSim is more oriented at automated server administration and race control. To get some real telemetry data you'd have to use OutGauge/OutSim, but that has its own limitations too. InSim provides only basic info like speed, position and heading in CompCar structure in IS_MCI packet.

[M.M.L.]

I continued my work... and now have problem... want to make commands like $exit... I talked with EQWorry and he said that i need to define $ as special char. How to do that? Then $exit would be a special text and LFS will report it as such

[MadCatX]

You've got to specify prefix to use commands starting with specific characters. Something like this:


//Initailize InSim
insim.Initialize(new InSimSettings {
Host = "127.0.0.1",
Port = 29999,
Prefix = '$',
});

[M.M.L.]

Ok... I do that...

insim.Initialize(new InSimSettings
{
Host = "127.0.0.1",
Port = 29999,
Admin = "",
Prefix='$',
});
static void MessageOut(InSim insim, IS_MSO mso)
{
// Print out the message content.
Console.WriteLine(mso.Msg);
string a;
a=mso.Msg;

if (a=="$exit")
{
insim.Send("/msg OK");
}
}
And this not working... I guees that problem is in second code.

[MadCatX]

I'm not entirely sure about this at the moment, but I guess that LFS truncates the prefix so the message your app receives is just "exit".

[M.M.L.]

Withaout $ same think... Maybe I need to remove first part of message, (for example SERT•Fangio: $exit)

[MadCatX]

Or you could do


if(a.Contains("$exit"))
insim.Send("/msg OK");

[DarkTimes]

It doesn't truncate the prefix, it's probably the player's name, as was stated. I normally do something like this:

if (mso.UserType == UserType.MSO_PREFIX) {
var commands = mso.Msg.Substring(mso.TextStart).Split();

if (commands.Any()) {
var command = commands.First().ToLower();

switch (command) {
case "$exit":
// Handle command
break;
}
}
}

[M.M.L.]

Both ways works ok... Another question... How to send message just to one player... I can not figure out

[DarkTimes]

You use the IS_MTC (message to connection) packet:

insim.Send(new IS_MTC { UCID = ucid, PLID = plid, Msg = "Hello, InSim!" });

But InSim.NET contains a couple of little convenience method for doing it.

To send a message to a specific connection:

insim.Send(ucid, "Hello, InSim!");

Or to send to a specific player:

insim.Send(0, plid, "Hello, InSim!");

[M.M.L.]

This has helped a lot... What about buttons. I guess starting like this insim.Send(new IS_BTN....

[M.M.L.]

static void newconnection(InSim insim, IS_NCN ncn)
{
insim.Send(ncn.UCID,"^7Dobro dosao na server");
IS_BTN btn = new IS_BTN();
btn.H = 100;
btn.L = 100;
btn.T = 100;
btn.Text = "OKKK";
btn.UCID = ncn.UCID;
btn.W = 100;
btn.ClickID = 5;
btn.ReqI = 245;
btn.BStyle = ButtonStyles.ISB_CLICK;
insim.Send(btn);
}
static void deletebutton(InSim insim, IS_BTC btc)
{
IS_BFN bfn=new IS_BFN();
bfn.ClickID = btc.ClickID;
bfn.UCID=btc.UCID;
bfn.ReqI = btc.ReqI;

insim.Send(bfn);
}

I want to delete button, where i am wrong

[MadCatX]

You're not telling LFS what do to in the IS_BFN packet. You have to specify the SubT to tell LFS that you want to delete a button. Also the ReqI is supposed to be 0, but I guess LFS wouldn't mind about that.

[M.M.L.]

Is there shorter way to sending buttons?

[DarkTimes]

No, buttons are bit too varied to simplify into a couple of method calls. Maybe I'll think about adding something to help with them in the future.

The only thing different I would do is to send them like this, as I think this looks a lot neater. But it's just a preference thing.

insim.Send(new IS_BTN {
H = 100,
L = 100,
T = 100,
W = 100,
Text = "OKKK",
UCID = ncn.UCID,
ClickID = 5,
ReqI = 245,
BStyle = ButtonStyles.ISB_CLICK
});

[M.M.L.]

Ok...

static void MessageOut(InSim insim, IS_MSO mso)
{
// Print out the message content.
Console.WriteLine(mso.Msg);

if (mso.UserType == UserType.MSO_PREFIX)
{
var commands = mso.Msg.Substring(mso.TextStart).Split();

if (commands.Any())
{
var command = commands.First().ToLower();

switch (command)
{
case "!exit":

insim.Send("/msg ^3Program se gasi!");
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(1000);
insim.Disconnect();
Environment.Exit(0);
break;
}
}
}
}
I use this function for commands. I want to limit who can use this command. Think that I need to use PLID, but how PLID to connect with username? And how to send two or more flags in InSim setting vecause I want car contact reports and i need to set ISF_CON flag in the IS_ISI to receive car contact reports
insim.Initialize(new InSimSettings
{
Host = "127.0.0.1",
Port = 29999,
Admin = "",
Prefix='!',
IName="Fangio",
Flags = InSimFlags.ISF_MCI,

Interval = 1000, // The interval at which updates are sent (milliseconds)


});

[DarkKostas]

Now you are getting into more complicated things. You have to add "directories" and add each player at NCN(NewConnection), CNL(ConnectionLeave) packets.


class Connections//Somewhere at the top of your code
{
public byte UCID;
public string UName;
public string PName;
public bool IsAdmin;
}

//Before "insim.Initialize(new InSimSettings blablabla"
insim.Bind<IS_NCN>(OnConnectionJoin);
insim.Bind<IS_CNL>(OnConnectionLeave);

//Add these anywhere you want
private void OnConnectionJoin(InSim insim, IS_NCN NCN)
{
try
{
_connections.Add(NCN.UCID, new Connections
{
UCID = NCN.UCID,
UName = NCN.UName,
PName = NCN.PName,
IsAdmin = NCN.Admin,
});
}
catch (Exception EX) { LogTextToFile("packetError", "NCN - " + EX.Message); }
}

private void OnConnectionLeave(InSim insim, IS_CNL CNL)
{
try { _connections.Remove(CNL.UCID); }
catch (Exception EX) { LogTextToFile("packetError", "CNL - " + EX.Message); }
}

LogTextToFile is a function i made to log text "type"(packetError in this case) to a file. PM me if you want it. You can just replace it for now to add the error to a richtextbox(just an example)

EDIT:
I forgot about flags. You can use more than one by using |
Example: Flags = InSimFlags.ISF_MCI | InSimFlags.ISF_MSO_COLS,

EDIT2:
Here is an example at MSO on how to use first code in case you don't know

case "!ialwaysforget":

insim.Send("/msg ^3" + _connections[mso.UCID].PName + " always forget his username which is " + _connections[mso.UCID].UName);
break;

[M.M.L.]

I get this error "The name '_connections' does not exist in the current context"
How to connect PLID and PlayerName? I have PLID in car contact, but i want player name. And yes, send me code for logging. Thank you very much

Edit: Also need code for reading config files if you have?

[DarkKostas]

I forgot to tell that after creating the class you will need to create the dictionary

private Dictionary<byte, Connections> _connections = new Dictionary<byte, Connections>();


About PLID you will have to do the same as UCID but with different packets, NPL and PLL.

LogTextToFile

const string SaveDataFolder = "files";

private void LogTextToFile(string file, string text, bool AdminMessage = true)
{
//Console.WriteLine(file + ": {0}", text); You dont need this one as you use form application.

if (AdminMessage == true) MessageToAdmins("There was a " + file + " : " + text);

if (System.IO.File.Exists(SaveDataFolder + "/" + file + ".log") == false) { FileStream CurrentFile = System.IO.File.Create(SaveDataFolder + "/" + file + ".log"); CurrentFile.Close(); }

StreamReader TextTempData = new StreamReader(SaveDataFolder + "/"+ file + ".log");
string TempText = TextTempData.ReadToEnd();
TextTempData.Close();

StreamWriter TextData = new StreamWriter(SaveDataFolder + "/" + file + ".log");
TextData.WriteLine(TempText + DateTime.Now + ": " + text);
TextData.Flush();
TextData.Close();
}


And MessageToAdmins which is used by LogTextToFile

private void MessageToAdmins(string Message)
{
foreach (var CurrentConnection in _connections.Values)
{
if (CurrentConnection.IsAdmin == true) MessageToUCID(CurrentConnection.UCID, Message);
}
}

[MadCatX]

You have to declare the _connections (or whatever you name it) variable first. InSim doesn't provide any PLID - UCID - Name matching, you've got to do this yourself. InSim.NET probably has some classes and functions to make the job easier...

[M.M.L.]

now I get this error "An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'ConsoleApplication1.Program._connections'
"

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{

class Connections//Somewhere at the top of your code
{
public byte UCID;
public string UName;
public string PName;
public bool IsAdmin;

}
class Program
{
private Dictionary<byte, Connections> _connections = new Dictionary<byte, Connections>();
static void Main()
{


static void OnConnectionLeave(InSim insim, IS_CNL cnl)
{
try { _connections.Remove(cnl.UCID); }

catch (Exception EX) { };
}

static void Novakonekcija(InSim insim, IS_NCN ncn)
{
try
{

_connections.Add(ncn.UCID, new Connections
{
UCID = ncn.UCID,
UName = ncn.UName,
PName = ncn.PName,
IsAdmin = ncn.Admin,
});
}
catch (Exception EX) { }

[MadCatX]

You're accessing _connections from a static function which requires _connections to be declared as static too (if C# is anything like C++ or Java).

[M.M.L.]

Ok. I fix that but I have trouble with PLID and Pname
This is for car contact
static void Kontakt(InSim insim, IS_CON con)
{

insim.Send("/msg " + _connections[con.A.PLID].PName);
insim.Send("/msg "+_connections[con.B.PLID].PName);
}

This is race joining
static void PrikljucenjeTrci(InSim insim, IS_NPL npl)
{
insim.Send("/msg "+npl.PName+" ^8je izasao sa "+npl.CName);
try
{
_connections.Add(npl.UCID, new Connections
{
PName=npl.PName,
PLID = npl.PLID,
});
}
catch { }
}

When there is car contact insim disconects from server. Can I use one class sonnections for everything or I need to separate?

[DarkKostas]

Here is my npl and pll and cpr a bit modified for you. You will have to bind and create dictionary/class for this to work. But this is how packets are.

private void OnPlayerJoin(InSim insim, IS_NPL NPL)
{
try
{
if (_players.ContainsKey(NPL.PLID))
{
// Leaving pits, just update NPL object.
_players[NPL.PLID].PLID = NPL.PLID;
_players[NPL.PLID].PName = NPL.PName;
}
else
{
// Add new player.
_players.Add(NPL.PLID, new Players
{
PLID = NPL.PLID,
PName = NPL.PName
});
}
}
catch (Exception EX) {}
}

private void OnPlayerSpectate(InSim insim, IS_PLL PLL)
{
try { _players.Remove(PLL.PLID); }
catch (Exception EX) {}
}

private void OnPlayerRename(InSim insim, IS_CPR CPR)
{
try
{
_connections[CPR.UCID].PName = CPR.PName;
foreach (var CurrentPlayer in _players.Values) if (CurrentPlayer.UCID == CPR.UCID) CurrentPlayer.PName = CPR.PName;
}
catch (Exception EX) {}
}


Im sure "takeover" packet is needed too. But haven't managed(tested yet) on how to do it. Someone could help here for this too.

Anyway, usage of the code

_players[con.A.PLID].PName//This is the player name.

[M.M.L.]

I have trouble with admins... Admins are defined in admin.txt and that looks like this
#Ovde se definisu admini

Admin=nesrulz
Admin=M.M.L.
Admin=gagag

My code for reading admin.txt:
string[] lines = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines("admin.txt");
foreach (string line in lines)
{
//Do something with line
if (line.StartsWith("#", false, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) )
{

}
else
{
if (line.ToLower().Contains("admin="))
{
try
{
string medjuvr = line.Remove(0, 6);
Console.WriteLine(medjuvr);
if (medjuvr == ncn.UName)
{
_connections.Add(ncn.UCID, new Connections
{
UCID = ncn.UCID,
UName = ncn.UName,
PName = ncn.PName,
IsAdmin = ncn.Admin,
ServerAdmin = 1,
});
}
else
{
_connections.Add(ncn.UCID, new Connections
{
UCID = ncn.UCID,
UName = ncn.UName,
PName = ncn.PName,
IsAdmin = ncn.Admin,
ServerAdmin = 0,
});
}
}
catch
{
}
}
}
}

This is for buttons:
if (_connections[ncn.UCID].ServerAdmin == 1)

{

insim.Send(new IS_BTN
{
H = 10,
W = 20,
L = 25,
T = 25,
Text = "^2SHOW GREEN FLAG",
UCID = ncn.UCID,
ClickID = 1,
ReqI = 255,
BStyle = ButtonStyles.ISB_CLICK
});
....................
....................
....................

[MadCatX]

You're converting the username to lowercase with this line

line.ToLower().Contains("admin=")


If you're trying the server with yourself as the admin, it obviously won't work as string comparison is case sensitive. Also avoid using == to compare strings (or any other non-primitive types). In Java using == compares pointers to the objects, not the objects themselves, I suppose C# is the same in this respect. Use CompareTo() function.

[M.M.L.]

It works only for the first admin in the list. Also works with ToLower and withuot.

[MadCatX]

It's impossible to help without better description of the problem, "it doesn't work" really doesn't give us much to go with. By any chance, does this work?

string[] lines = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines("admin.txt");
foreach (string line in lines)
{
//Do something with line
if (!line.StartsWith("#", false, System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) )
{
int delimiterIdx = line.IndexOf("="); //Find first "=" on the line
//Extract text from the beginning of the line to the last character before the first "="
string lineKey = line.Substring(0, delimiterIdx - 1).ToLower();
if (lineKey.Equals("admin"))
{
try
{
//Get the name of the admin
string medjuvr = line.Substring(delimiterIdx + 1);
Console.WriteLine(medjuvr);
if (medjuvr.Equals(ncn.UName))
{
_connections.Add(ncn.UCID, new Connections
{
UCID = ncn.UCID,
UName = ncn.UName,
PName = ncn.PName,
IsAdmin = ncn.Admin,
ServerAdmin = 1,
});
}
else
{
_connections.Add(ncn.UCID, new Connections
{
UCID = ncn.UCID,
UName = ncn.UName,
PName = ncn.PName,
IsAdmin = ncn.Admin,
ServerAdmin = 0,
});
}
}
catch
{
}
}
}
}

If in txt I have three admins, console.writeline(medjuwr); prints 3times muliply 3admins and insim disconnects. I added comments.
I get exception "KeyNot found" the given key is not present in the dictionary

[MadCatX]

Can you post the actual output of your program? Also LFS usually gives error messages when it terminates connection to an InSim app.

[M.M.L.]

I change function and now works ok... Thanks for help

When is contact between cars, i want to only admins see message about that.

static void Kontakt(InSim insim, IS_CON con)
{

insim.Send("/msg ^1Kontakt izmedju: ^8"+_players[con.A.PLID].PName+" i "+_players[con.B.PLID].PName);
}
So I need to edit this function... Do I need to create one new class Admin where will be ucid and how to read all ucid and send message to all admins?

[MadCatX]

Wouldn't something like

foreach(Connections conn in _connections) {
if(conn.IsAdmin == 1)
insim.Send(new IS_MTC {ucid = conn.UCID,
Msg = "blah" });
}

do?

[M.M.L.]

Cannot convert type 'System.Collections.Generic.KeyValuePair<byte,ConsoleApplication1.Connections>' to 'ConsoleApplication1.Connections' C:\Users\Damir\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\insimmm\insimmm\Program.cs

[MadCatX]

I have no knowledge of C#, so pardon my occasional ignorance, apparently the correct syntax is

foreach(KeyValuePair<byte, Connections> kvp in _connections) {
if(kvp.Value.IsAdmin == 1) ....

[M.M.L.]

Now its good... Thanks

My much much smaller code for admins

private bool GetUserAdmin(string Username)
{
StreamReader CurrentFile = new StreamReader(SaveDataFolder + "/admins.ini");

string line = null;
while ((line = CurrentFile.ReadLine()) != null)
{
if (line.Trim() == Username)
{
CurrentFile.Close();
return true;
}
}
CurrentFile.Close();
return false;
}

private void OnConnectionJoin(InSim insim, IS_NCN NCN)
{
try
{
_connections.Add(NCN.UCID, new Connections
{
UCID = NCN.UCID,
UName = NCN.UName,
PName = NCN.PName,
IsAdmin = NCN.Admin,

IsCustomAdmin = GetUserAdmin(NCN.UName)
});
}
catch (Exception EX) {}
}


A useful function to combine real admin and .ini admin

private bool IsConnectionAdmin(Connections CurrentConnection)
{
if (CurrentConnection.IsAdmin == true || CurrentConnection.IsCustomAdmin == true) return true;
return false;
}


And an in-game command to add admins(you will need to modify it a bit because im using if statements for each command instead of break.

else if (command[0] == "!makeadmin")
{
if (!IsConnectionAdmin(_connections[MSO.UCID]))
{
MessageToUCID(MSO.UCID, "You are not an admin");
return;
}
if (command.Length == 1)
{
MessageToUCID(MSO.UCID, "Invalid Format. ^7!makeadmin [username]");
return;
}

bool UsernameFound = false;
string Username = Text.Remove(0, command[0].Length + 1);

foreach (var CurrentConnection in _connections.Values)
{
if (CurrentConnection.UName.ToLower() == Username.ToLower())
{
UsernameFound = true;

if (IsConnectionAdmin(CurrentConnection)) MessageToUCID(MSO.UCID, "^7" + CurrentConnection.PName + " ^3is already an admin");
else
{
CurrentConnection.IsCustomAdmin = true;

StreamReader ApR = new StreamReader(SaveDataFolder + "/admins.ini");
string TempAPR = ApR.ReadToEnd();
ApR.Close();
StreamWriter Ap = new StreamWriter(SaveDataFolder + "/admins.ini");
Ap.WriteLine(TempAPR + CurrentConnection.UName);
Ap.Flush();
Ap.Close();
}

break;
}
}

if (UsernameFound == false) MessageToUCID(MSO.UCID, Username + " ^3not found");
}


You can replace MessageToUCID with your message function or the default way.(anything you like to use)

Thanks...

When I click on button

But then, program is sleaping for 5sec, and will not accept any command until it passes 5sec.

I get this error....http://fangio.eu5.org/files/Slike_razne/insimerror.png

[DarkTimes]

All I can imagine is that at some point in the fifteen seconds it takes the timer to elapse, the connection with LFS has been lost. Perhaps it would be better to place the IsConnected check in the anonymous method.

timer.Elapsed += delegate {
if (insim.IsConnected) {
insim.Send(TinyType.TINY_RST, 5);
}
}

Also just a tip, instead of using anonymous methods, it's generally recommended to use lambdas these days, but I guess it doesn't make much difference in this instance.

timer.Elapsed += (sender, e) => {

};

Right I have tried to make a sort of like gui program where i have green flag yellow ect in a form this is the code i have so far.

Host = "127.0.0.1", // Host where LFS is runing
Port = 29999, // Port to connect to LFS through
Admin = "xxx", // Optional game admin password
});
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Send message to LFS
insim.Send("/msg Hello, I am a InSim!");

// Send RCM to LFS
insim.Send("/rcm Hello PPL");
insim.Send("/rcm_all");

}

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Say's Hello
insim.Send("/msg ^7Hia All!");
}

And if i click button 1 or 2 then it says insim not connected is there anyway i can make it work??
cheers

Try this...

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
// Create new InSim object
InSim insim = new InSim();

public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Initailize InSim
insim.Initialize(new InSimSettings
{
Host = "127.0.0.1", // Host where LFS is runing
Port = 29999, // Port to connect to LFS through
Admin = "xxx", // Optional game admin password
});
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Send message to LFS
insim.Send("/msg Hello, I am a InSim!");

// Send RCM to LFS
insim.Send("/rcm Hello PPL");
insim.Send("/rcm_all");

}

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Say's Hello
insim.Send("/msg ^7Hia All!");
}
}

How to calculate drift points?

[MadCatX]

It depends on what you consider a drift and I can see that it would take a bit of work to get it right, but a very simple algorithm could work like this


if (car.Speed > MIN_SPEED) {
unsigned short driftAngle = abs(car.Direction - car.Heading);
if (driftAngle > MIN_DANGLE && driftAngle < MAX_DANGLE)
driftPoints[PLID] += COEFF * car.Speed * driftAngle;
}

This would of course require quite high sample rate to get any useful data.
