Predictions and States

Version 1.1362

This one mainly focuses on predicting VCMod features before they are noticed by server. No more delay when pressing a horn, for example. A new system is in place (States). Example when player tries to use horn. Old: calls serverside console command that calls serverside function, which then sounds the horn; New: calls a clientside command, cmd runs all needed checks clientside and sets the state, clientside audio handler manages the sound. While this is happening a net message reaches server which does the same checks, if the state change request is legit, update states of all other players, if its not allowed, it sends a denied message which changes the sender client feature state to the proper one. States get auto sent upon joining for new players.

Language overhaul

Version 1.1299

For the past few weeks I have been redoing the language feature of VCMod. The old system used alot of net traffic and alot of translations were simply unnoticed by me, since there was no web-server database support for them. New system only downloads data that is needed, instead of every time. Meaning around 20% less traffic dedicated to simply transfering language data.

• Fixed all firetruck back seat switching issues
• NEW Language overhauled
• Language net traffic reduced by 20x (yes, I did tests)
• All language data is now stored locally
• NEW Added language revisions
• NEW Web-server compatibility. Language changes will not be ignored anymore.
• Servers will now only download missing languages or those of highier revisions
• Each player stores his own local language data
• Player language data is now updated on joining of server, if needed
• Redid the language editor, no more "Save" button, added some more explanation
• You can now see what revision what language is
• NEW If a language is outdated random player will be asked for help (if he is using that language)
• Anyone can alter language from the server, need to be aproved first
• Specific people do not need web-server acceptance and can update languages live
• Languages will now be synced to all players without having to restart the server
• Languages now update automatically every 6 hours
• Plans to add an option to check all contributers of a specific language.
• Removed the "Privilages" administrator settings tab
• NEW Added "Core options" administrator settings tab
