Carousel start image

Is it possible to set the first image the carousel starts with and can the order be set for the other images?

You should rename images in alphabetical order. That's how you control order of the images, in example, 1-image.jpg, 2-image.jpg, and so on...

Hmmm... doesn't work as expected.
The first one goes well, but the others mix up. Not random but they have a fixed order other then the image(number) order.

I've tried
1-image.jpg
2-image.jpg etc... total of 8 images
it runs 1, 2, 6, 3, 4, 8, 7, 5

Please edit file /modules/hot_joomla_carousel/tmpl/default.php, and find line
Add the following code AFTER this line

We are getting there.
At first it seems to work but then i discovered that i was missing a picture.
It played 1 trough 7 but skipped 8. Then i had another look at the PHP source and saw that you counted the array and deducted 2 of the count

$infinite_pics_number = count($infinite_pic)-2
So $infinite_pics_number becomes 6 (8 count array name pictures - 2)

The $loop runs from 0 to <= 6 ($infinite_pics_number) = a total of 7 names from array $infinite_pics.

I changed the code as follows:
$infinite_pic = explode("||", $infinite_list);
sort($infinite_pic);
$infinite_pics_number = count($infinite_pic)-1;
for ($loop = 0; $loop <= $infinite_pics_number; $loop += 1)

Now $loop runs from 0 to 7 a total of 8

It works, but because i don't know the impact on the rest of the site, i would like to know if it's the correct sollution.

If it works like that on your server, it's OK. It doesn't have any influence to the other parts of the site.
