Dedicated server multiclass setup - asking for help

Hi all,

I'm trying to setup a dedicated server and struggle to get it up and running.
It runs 24/7 for some time but with a simple 1 car and circuit setup.
The first user who logs in true AMS2 can edit everything except AI or MULTICLASS.

For a special occasion, I'd like to edit our server.cfg like following and if possible I'd like to let it run like now until raceday. And no one can edit the server while in the game.

Can someone point me out how to do this, even better, were I am wrong?
I'll try it first on my local server before I shoot the file on the real server.

Thanks in advance.

SETUP:

Practice: from now until 10 november 21PM
Qualifying: (10 november) starts at 21PM and duration is 15 minutes
Race: (10 november) 60 minutes

Circuit: Spielberg Modern "id" : 735562025
Car 1: Sigma P 1 "id" : -1870819346
Car 2: Sigma P1 "id" : -1720554236

Wishlist:

Multiclass
FCY
No AI
Acc tire: and fuel x2 or x3
Damage on: perf impacting light
fixed setups
Auto Pitstop
Wait for race ready input
Force realistic driving aids
Only the 2 assigned cars can be taken
Server is password protected
Pitspeed limit

If possible:

Practice: track surface: Light rubber
Quali: track surface: default progressing
Race: track surface: default progressing

At first glance, you have set in "MultiClassSlot1" & "MultiClassSlot2" the car model but you have to set there the class of the car. I think you also should have to REM also the "VehicleClassId" & "VehicleModelId".
If you need it I could pass you a CFG file with GT3 Gen1 & 2 multiclass file with comments.

 

@Asturbo:
I figured the multiclassslot out and changed the vehicle numbers to class numbers.
So that worked.
Issue that remains is that after the race, we cannot just go on selecting different cars etc.
I think I have to dive deeper into the LUA rotate thing, for that.

CFG file with comments is always welcome.

 

Yes, if you lock the server with a setup, the cycle repeats itself after the race. You need LUA for a different combination after that. Or you can start the server, change the CFG file and restart the server when the race finishes (the CFG file is read only once when server starts).

BTW here is my template modfied with your settings (but not tested)
