Glenn Flansburg 0 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 How often does vPilot send position data back to the server for displaying on the website map? 1 second? 5 seconds? 10? Link to post Share on other sites
Ross Carlson 208 Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 All pilot clients update the position every 5 seconds. 1 Developer: vPilot, VRC, vSTARS, vERAM, VAT-Spy Senior Controller, Boston Virtual ARTCC Link to post Share on other sites

Keep in mind that the 5 second refresh rate is client to client. Website maps that show VATSIM traffic can have up to 5 minutes delay! Tomas Hansson Link to post Share on other sites
Glenn Flansburg 0 Posted July 12 Author Share Posted July 12 Yeah, I've noticed that https://map.vatsim.net/livedata/live.json is only updating my plane once a minute. Anything I can consume that has a faster refresh rate? Link to post Share on other sites
Nestor Perez 84 Posted July 17 Share Posted July 17 It's usually a good option to check the documentation before trying to reverse engineer an app 😉 https://github.com/vatsimnetwork/developer-info/wiki/Data-Feeds Néstor Pérez A Random Platypus [email protected] Link to post Share on other sites
