Live Timing On Scoring Tower

Post by mxsrider96 »

Okay, so I know nothing about scripting, and very little about coding in general, but I've been thinking about this for a few days now. would it not be possible to take an object and give it live animations based on a timing gate? Take Anaheim 1 for example. The scoring tower is right next to the finish line. It currently has 1, Vanderlee, Shipley, Crain, and someone else that I can't remember. Would it not be possible to design that like a real life tower with the 8's and then give it animations based on whatever timing gate is the finish, so that the top 5 on that tower would update every lap? I imagine it wouldn't be much different from the Live Timing in the cameras mode, except it would have to be applied to one timing gate, and not update with every gate. Just something that I think would be really neat

Not currently, the scripts you hear about on here are for running the server. It is something JLV has talked about implementing but I don't know when we will see it.

When, or if this will be possible, it wouldn't be too hard to make such a script though.

It won't be that hard to implement, no. JLV hasn't implemented that type of scripting yet though. He has said in the past that it was on his list, but hasn't been worked yet.
