Hi,

I would like to make a feature request for Plan-G. I love the Plan-G software but I have had major problems getting the network plugin XPUIPC to work using x-plane 11 and windows 10. I have tried switching off the firewalls on both pcs and various other things but to no avail. It seems very difficult to setup and tempermental. So my request is would it be possible for a plugin for x-plane 10/11 to be written which just sends all the required data to the Plan-G software.

I also use Gmaps from FSwidgets and they have a free network plugin which you just install in xp11 and it works great I don't have to mess about with switching off firewalls, ip settings, port settings, it just works. I do not like switching off firewalls for security reasons. I don't know whether it is because the XPUIPC is a few years old now or what but it is a bit of a nightware to get working.

Anyway if the network plugin was available I would use Plan-G alot more and it would be become my main mapping software for x-plane.

Thanks,
Steve
