Offizielles OMSI-Forum

I have a PC, so no problems with MATLAB compatibility...it was the work in the course that my professor gave that really frustrated me. It's so tedious! Hopefully you remember some things for your class.

Alright. So I'm going to attempt to implement this for the single-line matrix on the side of the SD200s. Hopefully I can follow the process here and figure it out.

EDIT: I did cheat, but at least it works!!! Thiago, take a look!

(L.L.Matrix_ChangeCounter) !
{if}
l0 1 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 50 $SetLengthL "@" $+
l0 1 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 33 $SetLengthL "@" $+
l0 0 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 16 $SetLengthL $+ (S.$.Matrix_NewTerminus)
{else}
l0 2 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 50 $SetLengthL "@" $+
l0 2 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 33 $SetLengthL "@" $+
l0 3 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 16 $SetLengthL $+ (S.$.Matrix_NewTerminus)


This code displays the IBIS 1 line on the side then the Side ANNAX line on the side. I GOT IT!!!

Quoted from "Thiago"

If it works, that's not cheating!

Yeah, you're right!

So, new progress, for side, one-line matrix displays, I'll say about 25%-30% of it is good. All I need to figure out now is how to add more lines to display on the side matrix so that it is not just two alternating displays but five or six.

Thiago, I hope you don't mind: I directed someone here because they had a question about matrix animating.

Scrolling? I'm not sure. You might have to start a new thread asking that, because that isn't one of my objectives, although it is an interesting feature.

But then again, the IBIS-2 computer will always display the bus stops, it wouldn't always display the terminus.

I figured out how to implement this for the Renault!!!

(L.L.Matrix_ChangeCounter) !
{if}
l0 1 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 3003 $SetLengthL "" $+
l0 3 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 0 $SetLengthL $+ (S.$.Matrix_NewTerminus)
{else}
l0 2 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 3003 $SetLengthL "" $+
l0 3 (M.V.GetTerminusString) 0 $SetLengthL $+ (S.$.Matrix_NewTerminus)
{endif}

I'm speechless...I can't believe I figured it out...

Just add another series of dots and ones directly under a series of dots and ones in an [addterminus] section.

So normally it would be

[addterminus]

Destination ("Ziel") Code
Bus stop name
IBIS-1 Display
Annax Line 1
Annax Line 2
Side Annax
Rollband File
IBIS-2 Display

In the original Usti.hof file, Annax Line 1 is already used. Use Annax Line 2 using the same template, and it will work perfectly. Make sure you include all of the @ symbols. I used the Image to ASCII program you recommended, got all the dots and ones, put the @ symbols after each line, except the last one, then copied the new dots and ones into a new .hof file (just copied and pasted the Usti.hof file to make a copy then renamed it "Test"). Before the new series of dots and ones, you have to have 11 @ symbols in front of the first dot or one in the new series. Then you have to make sure there is no Enter/Return after the @ symbols so that it is one long line of code. Then go to the top of the .hof file and fine [name], then change the next line to "Test" so that you don't confuse the Depots when loading a bus. Save the .hof file.

I might have forgot something, so let me know if it does not work properly.

Julian's bus, the O405N2 actually has some of what I'm looking for. The Renault has some as well. I just need to incorporate some of what is here and then it'll be perfect, or almost perfect.

Hmm...not sure. If what you have for your [addterminus] is exactly what you copied here, it could be that you don't have 16 characters. The characters include spaces.
So it should be, for example:

1234567890------@ (hyphens represent spaces)

and not

1234567890@

Try that.
