Hi Drew, well you're one step ahead of me, I drew a blank on getting the data structures for the native protocols. Mind you, I am using MS-VB6 which seems to turn people off very quickly. I did get some vaulable gems from people in the IRC channel and managed to "hack" the --props interactive p

I'm none too familiar with sockets programming, so bear with me here. I'm starting flightgear like so: fgfs --native-fdm='socket,out,30,localhost,5050,udp' And have a listener running on localhost 5050. At this point I'm just trying to print out the fdm values, but I'm getting garbage. Anyone poi
