There are several protocols. In fact, infinitely many. ;) You can define your own protocols with --generic (binary or text strings) (And thus saving bandwidth by sending only the data you need for your application.) Docs/README.IO and (for the generic interface) Protocols/ where there is a README and some examples. >> Note that everything is connected through a LAN and the ideal case >> would be to use a multicast to connect some systems together, but >> I'm still unsure whether that's possible. The packet format used by >> FlightGear is the main concern right now. ...you don't actally need to complexityficationalise things with multicast if the hosts are on the same network segment. A simple UDP-broadcast should do the same thing there, unless you have fancy multicast-aware switches in the lab and need to really push the network to its limits. But it seems noone has added (nudge-nudge wink-wink, Robin ;) an option for setting the broadcast option on sockets. (except for --multiplay) This ought to be an option for all udp protocols in FG imho. Well, at least for the --generic.
