Export XP is a plugin for FlyWithLua that exports data taken from the X-Plane 11 API and sends it to a log file for other programs to read. The difference between Export XP and other exporting plugins is that Export XP does not require network access as it writes to files on your disk. Unfortunately, this means that data from Export XP can not be used on a different system without writing your own script to export the data over network. The plugin is written in Lua X-Plane 11 built in API.
Export XP exports its data when run to a log file in your FlyWithLua scripts directory called ExportXP.txt
. You can write another program to retrieve the data from this file for however you like.
