Hello MobiFlight

First of all what an Great Program

like it a lot.

now to my ?

Majestic Q400 does not use fsuipc offsets they use UDP Offsets, therefore it could be nice to also broadcast and recieve UDP packets

for-examble majestic use these settings for udp transfer
[UDP_CONNECTOR_3]
UDP_ENABLED=1
SEND_RATE_DIVIDER=8; // 16 times per second
UDP_BROADCAST_ALLOWED=1
UDP_BROADCAST_MASK=127.0.0.1:49250
UDP_RECEIVE_ALLOWED=1
UDP_RECEIVE_MASK=0.0.0.0:49260
ICP_TX_FILTER=6152
ICP_RX_FILTER=6152

if Mobiflight somehow instead of sending data to fsuipc instead send data via UDP with these Values
(the values i got from an Varibel excelfile)

This is an Potentiometer knob that control dimming on panel lights
electricsData_->control.instlight_ovhd Indexvarible: 100C WORD Panel lights knobs. 0-0xFFFF

This is an switch for Beacon red/white
electricsData_->control.acol_light_sw Indexvarible: 101A BYTE 0 off, 1 red, 2 white

If you guys want to here more about how this udp Works i have alot data on it, in an folder.

Hi.
Welcome to Mobiflight !

For me peronaly THIS is not a feature i would plan for or request in a futured Mobiflight Version.
BUT: Sebastian is the "MainBrain" and Owner of Mobiflight.... HE have to decide what is comming and what is not include in his future plans !

Basicly the Mobiflight policy in the past was ... Supporting the Main Base of Flightsims and "most" of the AddOns.

At the moment i would say maby 70% of AddOns work with FSUIPC direct ! ( Include the most advaced systems like Project Magenta/Prosim ... PM for example is produced by the FSUIPC Guys themself !)
Other maby 25% of Aircrafts not work directly via FSUIPC...BUT we can use some tricks to make it work via FSUIPC, too.
Summary only maby 5% of currently used Planes are NOT realy supported at the moment....
Additional for Aircrafts that not use FSUIPC normaly a software is still existing that is similar to Mobiflight, but specialy designed for this AddOns.

Hope you alredy like our software and be able to use it ! ...... AND Talk to other Guys... Maby somebody already make a script to allow Q400 talk via FSUIPC.

Good Luck !
