Hot Load Changes / Local Sweatbox

Hi @Jake Saw,

Is there a way to hot load changes to XML files in vatSys rather than closing and re-opening the application? I'm playing about with Radars.xml at the moment and comparing what I see on vatSys compared to the same view on EuroScope.

Also, is there a way to connect to a locally running instance of Sweatbox?

Thanks!

Hi Chris

No - currently data loading requires a restart. 

Yes - add this to Profile.xml under <Servers> to enable a LocalHost server option in the Connection Window. 

<LocalHost url="127.0.0.1" />

AFV and Coordination will be disabled. This server setting should not be shipped with any profiles you create as I don't wish to provide support for non-VATSIM connections 🙂

Brilliant, thanks for that Jake! I'll make sure it doesn't make it into production.
