The Chat Widget sends predefined messages with a click of a button. You can also send private messages directly to a specific car. You can also select LEADER, AHEAD, BEHIND, or REPLY to let the system determine the car to send to. Just click the button or car first, then click the text. Here is a list of the predefined messages.

The default messages can be changed in the settings.txt file using the following variables. There are 6 rows and 4 columns that you can reference for 24 possible predefined messages. The text is optional, and will use the default text if the button name is one of the predefined ones. The predefined text puts your car number at the beginning of all messages.

   chat-row1-col1-name = Button Name
   chat-row1-col1-text = Text To Send

You can have multiple instances of chat with a different name. See the parameter data-sra-args-chat-instance. Just replace the word "chat" in the variable to your instance name, in this example, "chat2".

   chat2-row1-col1-name = Button Name
   chat2-row1-col1-text = Text To Send

The text can also have variables embedded with it. The following variables are allowed.

• [CAR] - The car number that the message will be sent to.
• [CARORME] - The car number selected or ME if no car selected
• [CARNUMBER] - Your Car Number
• [DRIVERNAME] - Your Name

You can also embed any SendKeys sequence in the text. See SendKeys. If the text begins with a slash, then the "word" following the slash will be used to send the message to that car identifier. It will also accept "REPLY" as a car identifier to send the message to the last person to send you a private message. If you have already selected a car to send to, then that car will override. Think of '/' as a way to define a default car. As a convention, I also put a slash at the beginning of the name followed with the car number. For Example, Pass Left almost always applies to the car behind you. Why send to all cars?:

   chat-row1-col1-name = /[CAR]
PASS LEFT
   chat-row1-col1-text = /RL-1 [#[CARNUMBER]] Pass Left

Example:

<sra-chat></sra-chat>
