Simulator plugins
Download v9 and replace your older files. Each package includes its installation instructions.
FlyWithLua plugin + local HTTPS bridge
The bridge handles HTTPS outside X-Plane, so networking cannot freeze the simulator. Python 3.8+ is required; no extra Python packages or LuaSec.

- 3
Install the Lua script
Remove older HEMS scripts, then copy hems_command.lua to this folder:
X-Plane/Resources/plugins/FlyWithLua/Scripts/ - 4
Start the local bridge
Open a terminal in the extracted folder and run the command below. Use python3 instead of python on macOS/Linux. Keep the window open while flying.
python hems_bridge.py - 5
Confirm actual telemetry
Start X-Plane or reload Lua scripts. CONNECTED appears only after the server confirms a save. Open Live Tracking here using the same pilot account.
The current telemetry endpoint accepts public submissions identified by pilot email; these are not authenticated pilot connections. Previously generated hems_ keys do not authenticate requests and are no longer used. Flight-feed reads still require sign-in.
