Introduction
The IS_VER packet contains information about the LFS and InSim versions, allowing you to prevent your program interacting with legacy versions of the game. To request a IS_VER packet to be sent, either set the ReqI to non-zero in the IS_ISI packet when initialising InSim, or by sending a IS_TINY packet with a SubT of TINY_VER.
struct IS_VER // VERsion
{
byte Size; // 20
byte Type; // ISP_VERSION
byte ReqI; // ReqI as received in the request packet
byte Zero;
char Version[8]; // LFS version, e.g. 0.3G
char Product[6]; // Product : DEMO or S1
word InSimVer; // InSim Version : increased when InSim packets change
};
