Flight Events Save

Flight Events

This is a system to enhance the experience of flying in group with friends.

This includes:

• A server to handle 2-way communications. The web server also provides with a web interface to display all participating aircraft and upcoming events.
• A client to communicate with flight simulators via SimConnect and send data to the server.
• The same client can also serve as a simplified FSD server for ATC radar software such as Euroscope or AURORA.
• A Discord bot to automatically move players between voice channels based on their COM1 frequency. Another bot that can repeat ATIS info in voice channel.
