Cruise Control: Reloaded 1.0

What's 'Reloaded'?

Reloaded is a series of modifications I'm going to write, which are basically remakes of my old mods, written back in 2008 or 2009. These mostly were bad and weren't working great. Now, my coding skills allow me to write them from scratch, this time working better and faster. All the mods are going to be Open Source, including both new style and old style sources, so you can compare them both and learn how the same (or similar) script can be written in several ways. Please note that it's NOT recommended to EVER use any of the old sources for any reason except than learning (by seeing bad habits)!

The first Reloaded mod I'm going to show you is Cruise Control (previously called Tempomat). It might not sound exciting or complex and indeed, this time it's a very simple mod (Silent's aging, eh? ). The idea itself might have been made by several modders already, but this release is supposed to be the most natural Cruise Control available. It works differently from the other available mods, so the car's still obeying all the physics laws, and the steering works like the mod's operating your joypad manually (which it does indeed!).


This mod is compatible with the CLEO 3/4 Libraries found here:

Put CLEO folder (with all their content) in your game directory (not much of a content though!).


Usage

Press the = button whilst driving to activate Cruise Control. You will hear a single beep indicating that mod is active and waiting you to release throttle. After doing so, you will hear a second beep and vehicle's speed will be kept steady. Accelerate or brake to deactivate Cruise Control.


Known bugs

None.
