// ======= | // ======= | ||
+ | |||
+ | // Version 0.6N | ||
+ | // ------------ | ||
+ | // Added ISS_DIALOG and ISS_TEXT_ENTRY to the ISS state flags | ||
+ | // New packet SMALL_LCS - set local car switches (lights, horn, siren) | ||
+ | |||
+ | // Version 0.6M (INSIM_VERSION increased to 7) | ||
+ | // ------------ | ||
+ | // Backward compatibility system - send INSIM_VERSION in the IS_ISI | ||
+ | // Older programs (that send zero) are assumed to require version 6 | ||
+ | // New join request system enabled if ISF_REQ_JOIN is set in IS_ISI | ||
+ | // IS_JRR can also be used to reset a car at a specified location | ||
+ | // Packet IS_CSC to report changes in car state (currently start or stop) | ||
+ | // Zbyte added to CarContObject structure to report car's altitude | ||
+ | // Zbyte added to IS_OBH so the layout object can be identified | ||
+ | // IS_MSO / IS_III / IS_ACR message out packets now have variable size | ||
+ | // IS_BFN can now be used to delete a range of buttons with a single packet | ||
+ | // New packet IS_OCO can be used to override specific or all start lights | ||
+ | // New IS_AXM option PMO_SELECTION to set the current editor selection | ||
+ | // Added TTC_SEL to request an IS_AXM with layout editor selection | ||
+ | // Added TINY_AXM to request IS_AXM packets for the entire layout | ||
+ | // IS_SSH documentation updated as it is no longer only for bmp files | ||
+ | // New packet IS_UCO sends info about InSim checkpoints and circles | ||
+ | // New packet IS_SLC reports a connection's currently selected car | ||
+ | // Packet TINY_SLC to request an IS_SLC for all connections | ||
+ | // Added TINY_ALC and SMALL_ALC to get and set allowed cars (like /cars) | ||
+ | // Value 5 (out of bounds) added to the IS_HLV packet | ||

Introduction
InSim.txt is a file found the games doc folder. It is a C++ header file that contains the definition for each packet as well as comments from Scawen as to how each packet should be used.
Contents
Here are the complete contents of InSim.txt as of 26 Mar 2016 (Patch 0.6N).
