SimConnect Go SDK

The airport map

The airport map is built only on the SDK: an airport's ground layout as SimConnect reports it, taxi routing, AI traffic under your control, scheduled airlines, the landing sequence and the tower.

Why SimConnect Go SDK

Build MSFS add‑ons with Go

From real‑time telemetry dashboards to AI traffic controllers — connect directly to the simulator with a typed, zero‑dependency SDK.

Two ways to connect

Client or manager

Use the low-level client for full control, or the manager for production-ready lifecycle management.

package main

import (
    "log"
    "github.com/mrlm-net/simconnect"
)

func main() {
    client := simconnect.NewClient("My App")

    if err := client.Connect(); err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    defer client.Disconnect()

    // Read simulator data, emit events, etc.
}

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/mrlm-net/simconnect/pkg/manager"
)

func main() {
    mgr := manager.New("My App",
        manager.WithAutoReconnect(true),
    )

    mgr.OnConnectionStateChange(
        func(old, current manager.ConnectionState) {
            fmt.Printf("%s -> %s\n", old, current)
        },
    )

    mgr.Start()
}
