And you are telling me that I am spending all my time in here.......

[cyborg]

i think you quoted the wrong text

well...i think you spend alot of time in here...hehe

[NoteMe]

I havn't been here in 3weeks now...but yes, I do spend to much time in here...

BTW I didn't quote the wrong text, but I didn't know which one that suited best. And I didn't want to quote them all....So I guess that I just quotet your last one telling that "No prob, I can make an app for everyone if you want....I am just sitting here and helping people" would do the trick...

How do I put cars on the track?

Edit: hehehe......

[dogfish227]

makeing the map is complex ill have to write a tutorail some time but for now:

there are 6 modes they are
1. all roads
2. dottedlines
3. solid lines
4. edit roads
5. turn lines
6. edit lines

ill start with mode 1-3 (they are very similar)
first to change the type of raod to lay press the up and down arrow to change the rotation hit the left or right arrows, to make a car start on this peice of road press the HOME key press i,j,k to put an arrow on that peice of road.

4
click 1 or more road peices and change the arrow and start properties by pressing HOME for start/dont and the ijk letters to place / take away arrows

5
lines lines are the way the cars know when to turn an invisible linesegments sticks out from the top left and top right corrner of the car while it is driveing if either of those lines segments intersects with the line segment that you place the car will do what the line tells it to
use the up down arrow keys to change the lines properties and the left and right keys to rotate the line
6
edit lines

to get to the mode press that # on the keyboard
