There is NMEA support from the sim, perhaps that will do it? I have written an app which connects to the NMEA source and outputs my vessel position, much more basic than you are talking, but might be a starting point to look at?

Connecting Virtual Sailor NG to another program

Hello all,

My name is Javi and I am new around here.

I hear that sadly the developer of this awesome simulator passed away earlier this year. I was wondering if someone has tried to connect this simulator to another program, maybe using a port or similar. What I want to do is coding a program that obtains the info from the sensors and computes a rudder and propeller input, and inject it back to the simulator. Do you think thats possible? Have someone tried something similar? I guess that if online gaming it's possible, it should be possible to use the port that the simulator is using.

Best,

Top
