The panel2.cfg file format

■ 目錄

■ 1. 總概

The panel2.cfg file allows to create 2D panels by defining which elements to use, like lamps, needles, etc., what they are intended to display and where they are to be placed.

The panel2.cfg file is a plain text file encoded in any arbitrary encoding, however, UTF-8 with a byte order mark is the preferred choice. The parsing model for numbers is Loose, however, you are encouraged to produce Strict output nonetheless. The file is required to be located inside the train folder and is expected to be named panel2.cfg. The file is interpreted on a per-line basis, from top to bottom.

Layers

All elements in the panel are associated layers. The layer is described as an integer, where small values represent the background and high numbers the foreground. When placing elements, you should make sure that no overlapping elements share the same layer number. The background image of the panel is always associated layer number 0, so elements on top of it should start with layer number 1 or higher. If you want to place elements behind the panel background image, you can likewise use negative numbers to represent these layers.


Daytime and nighttime images

For all elements that take a texture, you can specify distinct daytime and nighttime textures. Depending on the lighting conditions and additional route instructions, openBVE will display any intermediate blend between the daytime and nighttime textures. If no nighttime textures are used, the daytime images will be darkened to simulate corresponding nighttime images.

覆蓋和光暗

The cab is rendered as an overlay. This means that the cab will always appear in front of scenery objects. This is intentional, because this way, rain, walls and other obstructing objects cannot be accidentally rendered inside the cab. Furthermore, lighting in the cab is different than in the scenery. While the ambient brightness is reflected in the cab, the ambient color is not, and the cab always appears as if reflecting white light.

■ 2. 句法

Each line in the file can be empty (or solely consist of white spaces) and will be ignored, can mark the beginning of a new section or contain key-value pairs inside a section. All key-value pairs relate to the last section opened.

A new section is opened by starting the line with an opening bracket (U+005B) and ending it with a closing bracket (U+005D). The text in-between the brackets indicates the name of the section and is case-insensitive. White spaces at the beginning and the end of the line are ignored, as well as at the beginning and the end of the name of the section. Thus, the beginning of the section has the following form:

[NameOfTheSection]

A key-value pair is indicated by giving the key, an equals sign (U+003D) and then the value. The key is case-insensitive. White spaces at the beginning and the end of the line are ignored, as well as in front and after the equals sign. Alternatively, white spaces surrounding the key and the value are ignored. Thus, a key-value pair as the following form:

NameOfTheKey = Value

Some values are further split into multiple parts, separated by commas (U+002C).

您可以在一行的末尾添加注释。注释由分号(U+003B,英文半角)开始。所有注释在开始解析文件之前就将被自动排除。

■ 3. The This section

The This section defines the background image to use for the panel and which resolution the panel has. Only one This section may be used within the file.


[This]

This starts the section.


Resolution = Value
Value: A floating-point number representing the width measured on the panel background image that corresponds to the width of the screen for the default camera position, alignment and zoom.

Left = Value
Value: A floating-point representing which x-coordinate in the panel background corresponds to the farthest point to which can be scrolled left. The point is not required to lie within the bounds of the background image.

Right = Value

DaytimeImage = FileName
FileName: The image file to use as the daytime version of the panel background image, relative to the train folder. If not specified, no background image will be shown.

NighttimeImage = FileName
FileName: The image file to use as the nighttime version of the panel background image, relative to the train folder. If specified, the daytime version must also be specified. Otherwise, no nighttime version will be available.

TransparentColor = HexColor
HexColor: A hexcolor representing the exact color in both the DaytimeImage and NighttimeImage files which corresponds to a transparent pixel. The default value is #0000FF.

Center = X, Y
X: A floating-point number representing the x-coordinate of the panel background image that corresponds to the center of the screen.
Y: A floating-point number representing the y-coordinate of the panel background image that corresponds to the center of the screen.

Defines which pixel in the background image corresponds to the center of the screen for the default camera position. The relation between Center and Origin influences the yaw and pitch of the cab alignment.


Origin = X, Y
X: A floating-point number representing the x-coordinate of the panel background image that corresponds to the vanishing point.
Y: A floating-point number representing the y-coordinate of the panel background image that corresponds to the vanishing point.

When camera restriction affects the default camera setup

Camera restriction is the built-in functionality to limit the camera view inside cabs created by the panel2.cfg to the rectangle as specified via Left, Right, Top and Bottom. If your setup of Centerand Resolution would force the camera to show parts that are outside of that specified region even with the default camera settings, the camera position will be altered to guarantee that the view stays inside the cab region. In order to verify that your Center and Origin setup is unaffected by this, disable camera restriction by hitting the CAMERA_RESTRICTION key (default: CTRL+R) and then reset the camera by hitting the CAMERA_RESET key (default: num 5). The Center and Origin values will now be exactly as scripted, thereby revealing possible problems in the relations of Resolution, Left, Right, Top, Bottom, Center and Origin.

■ 4. The PilotLamp section

The PilotLamp section creates an indicator that can be made visible or invisible. You can use as many of these sections as required.

The DaytimeImage is required to be specified if you make use of the PilotLamp section. The Subject used needs to return 1 if the PilotLamp is to be made visible, otherwise it will be invisible.


[PilotLamp]

This starts the section.

[Needle]

This starts the section.


Subject = Subject
Subject: One of the available subjects. The default subject is true.

Radius = ValueInPixels
ValueInPixels: A non-zero floating-point number that redefines the radius of the element in pixels relative to the background image. The default value is Y from the Origin key-value pair.

The Y value in the Origin key-value pair defines the vertical point of rotation, but also defines the actual radius of the element in the bitmap’s own pixel coordinates. If ValueInPixels is set to a different value than this actual radius, the image will be scaled by a factor of Radius / Y, while preserving the Origin-Center relation. If you do not want to scale the image, set ValueInPixels to the same value as Yin the Origin key-value pair, or omit Radius altogether.


DaytimeImage = FileName
FileName: The image file to use as the daytime version of the needle image, relative to the train folder. Is required to be specified.

NaturalFreq = Value
Value: A non-negative floating-point number representing the natural frequency of an assumed undamped oscillatory system. If not specified, damping will not be performed.

Defines the natural frequency. In an undamped oscillatory system, this is the angular frequency in radians per second. As soon as damping is performed, the frequency will decrease with convergence of the oscillator. A natural frequency of 0 will not allow any rotation to be performed. Higher values roughly correspond to radians per second. If specified, DampingRatio should also be specified.


DampingRatio = Value
Value: A non-negative floating-point number representing the damping ratio. If not specified, damping will not be performed.

Defines the damping ratio for the oscillatory system. Values between 0 and 1 represent under-damping, 1 represents critical damping and values above 1 represent over-damping. Compare the following illustration in which the angle of rotation changes from 0 to 1 over time:

If specified, NaturalFreq should also be specified.


Layer = LayerIndex
LayerIndex: An integer which uniquely defines this element among overlapping elements. Lower numbers represent the background and higher numbers the foreground. Elements may use the same LayerIndex as long as they do not overlap. The default value is 0.

■ 6. The DigitalNumber section

The DigitalNumber section creates an indicator that can switch between multiple states, useful to build up a display of decimal digits. You can use as many of these sections as required.

The image used for the DigitalNumber, defined by DaytimeImage (required) and NighttimeImage (optional), is comprised of the individual states, which are stacked vertically, anchored at the top of the image. The width of a single state is equal to the width of the image, while the height of a single state is defined by Interval (required). The Subject used needs to return an integer from 0 (first element) to n-1 (last element), where n is the number of elements. If a value outside of that range is returned by Subject, the DigitalNumber will be made invisible.

Layer = LayerIndex
LayerIndex: An integer which uniquely defines this element among overlapping elements. Lower numbers represent the background and higher numbers the foreground. Elements may use the same LayerIndex as long as they do not overlap. The default value is 0.

■ 7. The DigitalGauge section

The DigitalGauge section creates a solid-color square of which only a radial section is shown at a time. You can use as many of these sections as required.

There are three important angles to consider. The InitialAngle defines which angle corresponds to the Minimum value, while LastAngle defines which angle corresponds to the Maximum value. The current value at a given time corresponds to the current angle. The solid-color square will only show the part that is between the current angle and the LastAngle. If InitialAngle is less than LastAngle, the solid-color square will wind clockwise. If InitialAngle is greater than LastAngle, the solid-color square will wind counter-clockwise.

The subject needs to return a value that meaningfully works together with the Minimum and Maximum settings.

Step = Value
Value: A floating-point value representing the step in which values on the solid-color square can increase. The value to be displayed via the solid-color square will be rounded down to the next integer multiple of Value. If Value is negative, values will be rounded up to the absolute value of Value instead. If Value is 0, increases will be smooth. The default value is 0.

LayerIndex: An integer which uniquely defines this element among overlapping elements. Lower numbers represent the background and higher numbers the foreground. Elements may use the same LayerIndex as long as they do not overlap. The default value is 0.

■ 8. The LinearGauge section

The LinearGauge section creates a panel layer, which uses texture shifting to create a sliding linear gauge. You can use as many of these sections as required.

Consider a standard openBVE face:

As you can see, the horizontal texture-coordinates upon this face are 0 at the right and 1 at the left. Thus, the value given by Minimum represents 0 Maximum, represents 1, and the current value may then be calculated as a simple percentage.

Further, the direction of the texture shift may be changed from horizontal to vertical (or both) by using the Direction parameter.

● Suffixes
Subject suffix Description
di With d0 for the ones, d1 for the tens, d2 for the hundreds, etc., this suffix returns a value between 0 and 9 corresponding to the respective digit of the underlying subject, but only if the value of the subject is less than 10 for d1, less than 100 for d2, etc., otherwise this suffix returns 10.

Example: kmphd1 can be used to feed a DigitalNumber with the tens of the current speed of the train in kilometers per hour. The image used by the DigitalNumber will thus need to be composed of images from 0 to 10 in order to show all possible states kmphd1 can return, where images 0 through 9 correspond to the digits, and 10 corresponds to an image shown at the tens when the speed is below 10 km/h (e.g. another 0-digit, or blank space).
