2021-01-18 snapshot

[jlv]

Changes:

• New Javascript functions: mx.find_statue(), mx.find_billboard(), mx.add_statue(), mx.add_billboard(), mx.gate_from_timing_position(), mx.get_player_slot(), mx.broadcast_script_message().
• Fixed flaggers flagging for disconnected riders.
• Fixed software mixer bug when playing longish samples.
• If the script file is named "nofrills.js", it now counts towards the track hash so client's can't use modified scripts.
• Fixed erode bug/exploit.
• Removed some redundant division for slightly faster erode.
• Client version is now 42.

Linux users: https://mxsimulator.com/snapshots/mxbin-2021-01-18-1548

Replace mx.exe or mxbin with one of the above files. The default location for mx.exe should be "C:\Program Files (x86)\MX Simulator". I'd keep a backup of the originals since these aren't well tested.

There's an example of using the new script message system here.

The soccer server is so sick

Does this mean we could have crowds cheering for passes into the lead or leaders crashing?

Due my little knowledge I gotta ask in a good way, what are the possibilities this snapshot offers. I guess if a soccer ball moves, a haybale can be movable also but, what else can be done regarding the other functions?

[KaseoDip]

Can we please get the “boing” sound you hear when you hit the soccer ball every time you hit someone in a race

We out here expecting a serious snapshot and Jlv comes with a soccer ball. Hahahah JK thanks that might open some doors for track makers, thanks

That was already possible before this update.

I wouldn't use this for moving bales. It wouldn't scale well for hundreds of bales and I don't think having bales all over the place would be much fun in a real race anyway.

This is more for alternate game modes. You could use this to make king of the hill or capture the flag modes, or maybe enduro scoring. (Not exactly sure how enduro scoring works though.)

It's a false positive.

I have my own personal server but it can't read the scripts needed to allow the ball to move on impact. How would I import the scripts to my own server so my friends and I can have fun on a private server?
(im using your "mxserver" with javascripts)

It requires a new server that I haven't posted yet. Probably going to post it by tomorrow.

im not sure if this is the correct thread to post this, delete if necessary. I have updated to the 1.18 snapshot but when i try to load a lobby off the servers page, it puts me on 1.13 snapshot, i do not have the first clue how to fix this, and google provided nothing for me. also, when i add editor or erode in the target line, its saying the file path is not correct. im not good with computers so this is pretty new to me. im sorry.

Make sure the snapshot exe is named "mx". The ".exe" extension is hidden by default in file explorer.
