Created page with "History of all InSim versions. The primary source is the changelog in {{folder|docs/InSim.txt}}. == 0.7F == ''- {{date|2024-07-27}}'' IS_IPB / TINY_IPB - set / get list..."

New page

History of all [[InSim]] versions. The primary source is the changelog in {{folder|docs/InSim.txt}}.

''- {{date|2024-07-27}}''

IS_IPB / TINY_IPB - set / get list of IP bans 

== 0.7E ==

''- {{date|2023-12-17}}''

License byte added to IS_NCI packet (after Language byte)

== 0.7A ==

''- {{date|2021-12-16}}''

INSIM_VERSION increased to 9

New size byte for packets - now represents packet size / 4 
- this allows much larger packets, up to 1020 bytes 
IS_AXM maximum objects increased to 60 (was 30) - see AXM_MAX_OBJECTS 
IS_MCI maximum cars increased to 16 (was 8) - see MCI_MAX_CARS 
IS_MAL / TINY_MAL - set / get list of mods allowed on host 

== 0.6V ==

''- {{date|2021-02-28}}''

NLP / MCI minimum time interval reduced to 10 ms (was 40 ms) 
IS_CPP FOV can now be used in-car but not smoothed (0 = no change) 
IS_CPP Pos is now relative to "Centre view" not the user setting 
IS_RES TTime now indicates time since qualifying started 
IS_RES PLID is now zero if the player has left the race 
IS_NPL Config : setup configuration 
IS_NPL Fuel : initial fuel load 
IS_NPL RWAdj : tyre width reduction (rear) 
IS_NPL FWAdj : tyre width reduction (front) 
IS_PIT FuelAdd : fuel added

New value PMO_POSITION for IS_AXM packet to report a blank position 
New packet IS_CIM reports a connection's interface mode 
New values TTC_SEL_START and TTC_SEL_STOP for IS_TTC

IS_MTC can be sent to all (UCID = 255) and sound effect can be specified 
IS_CON reports contact between two cars (if ISF_CON is set)
