Hi,

Which Plugin API do i have to use if I want to write a plugin (C based) that can be sent/receive data from the network (UDP)?

Or can i just use C within the plugin to communicate over the network?

Do we have examples?

Thanks

Andre

Official documentation and examples on how to create plugins is available here. The x-plane.org plugin forum has many knowledgeable people who can provide more help as well.

Will try the forum.

In your X-Plane installation folder there is a document about UDP named "Exchanging Data with X-Plane.rtfd".
