ukmil Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 I am looking for someone who knows PHP to create a script for me. My VA uses an online server, away from PHPVMS, which is FSD based. I need an online map creating in PHP that reads the flat text file created by the server, and plots the aircraft posiitions etc on a map. Anyone?

Moderators Parkho Posted February 3, 2013 Moderators Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 Do you need a live map like phpvms when the pilot starts the client like kACARS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freshJet Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 This requires more than PHP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukmil Posted February 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 there are maps available on out there, but no one will release the code. I think it actually uses PHP and Java. We use PHPVMS to track the hours etc, but we fly online together, using FSINN, which is a FSD based server. FSINN creates a TXT file called WHAZZUP.TXT with the data of all the players, like co-ords, speed, alt etc The script then takes this, and displays it on a map, just like PHP VMS, but uses the data in the TXT file. You can see an example here http://xfsd.ansorg-web.de/fsdmap/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators simpilot Posted February 3, 2013 Administrators Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 You can adapt the Vatsim data reader that I have on GitHub. Vatsim and IVAO has the same type of data file as the wazzup.txt file you are refering to. You will just need to adjust the parameters to meet your client section so when it parses the data it knows where to start going through the clients connected. There is also a Google map adaptation included in the package.
