Yes, thanks, that helps a bit. I searched the forums for this topic but unfortunately I couldn’t find this thread some time ago. It answers a lot of questions of course. I see some differences to what I’m thinking about, it’s not to share hundreds of cloud positions trough a dedicated distribution system. All I need for the "radar" (aka map) and a plane to simulate weather condition is some metar-like data, where i.e. you can get the center and movement of a thunderstorm, this storm can be generated and the data can be shared trough network. I don’t know if this makes sense for anyone else, for me it does at the moment. When I read the forum thread I fear my approach is too simple :-( But if this thunderstorm looks exactly the same from different angles is not that important in case there IS a thunderstorm probably. Sharing the center position, pressure, movement, winds and probably cloud density over network is sufficient, in case this data could be shared in metar-like system somehow. AFAIK fg can get metars, probably some simple weather situation can be shared trough artificial metars? So another dumb question, advanced weather is not writing metars, is it? Or more general question, does advanced weather in general deal with metars or is this something that is only used with basic weather? -Yves ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
