Hey guys,need a help to create an app that is similar to Route advisor: Well,With NAV of course! I only need Speed,Navi,Transmission! From what i should start?what i should learn
Not everything in this wiki page will be applicable, since it is intended for vehicle Lua, not app Lua. However it may provide useful information on how to tap into the games streams to get data. https://wiki.beamng.com/Vehicle_Lua You will also want to look at the normal beamNG GPS app. Since you can copy/paste it into your own app and then modify the colours and shapes that it uses to match the ETS/ATS nav. Then you will need to use Streams to grab the rest of the data. Possibly have some form of timer to implement sleep functionality. Speed limit warnings etc can't (to my knowledge) be done, since the game has no way of finding the speed limit for the current road. Navigation should be possible, however it would be *very* complex to implement. So all in all, this sort of thing should be possible. However you would likely want to make a slightly more basic version of it. Equally it is not an ideal first project due to its complexity, you may wish to start out with some basic things like making a speedometer first etc.
