With our Image Rectifier you can straighten diagonally taken photos, e.g. of house walls or other objects, so that all sides are parallel to the edges of the image.

Terrain materials are the materials that the map editor uses for the ground polygons it creates. The complete process is described here - from creating the texture to integrating it into the map editor.
-
Of course, you can create any terrain material you like from the terrain textures that come with the software.
However, these textures were not created just like that, but are designed for certain material configurations. These will be explained here. -
The existing key combinations are not fixed, but can be changed. New key combinations can also be added and game controllers can be configured.
-
Certain scenery objects contain text fields so that the map builder can label them individually. Typical objects are street signs and bus stops.

This bulky term refers to function curves that can be freely created by the programmer. They are defined by defining (at least 2) X-Y pairs (points), which are then mathematically connected with straight lines. Such functions also occur elsewhere in LOTUS, e.g. as volume curves in the sound editor.

This is of course about light signalling systems (LZA) (or light signal systems/LSA, as our southern neighbours call them) and their signal heads, but who uses these terms? OK, here in the forum there are probably many... ;-)

To ensure that all hardware-side communication with new vehicles is as uniform as possible, it is necessary that vehicle scripts strictly adhere to the standards defined here!
This applies in particular to the designation of keyboard, mouse and game controller key inputs (normal events), inputs of game controller axes or plug-in interfaces as well as a uniform designation of variables so that plug-in interfaces are compatible with as many different vehicles as possible. -
"Repaint" is the most prominent variant of a texture exchange. A texture swap completely replaces one or more textures of an object instance on the map or of a concretely placed vehicle, i.e. over all where texture A was previously used (no matter in which material and no matter for what purpose, i.e. as day, night, etc. texture), texture B is then used. In the following we will simply speak of "Repaints" for easier understanding.

Particle systems are graphic objects without a fixed outline, which consist of similar individual parts that behave and move according to physical laws - for example smoke.
