# sim_connect_sys A package which generates Rust bindings for SimConnect (for use with Microsoft Flight Simulator) ## Installation - Install the SimConnect sdk - Open MSFS - Enable develop mode in Options/General Options/Developers - Click "Help" on the top menu bar - Click SDK Installer (Core) - If installed to default location of `C:\MSFS SDK\`, then you may stop here - Add an environment variable to `cargo.toml` in the `[env]` section as follows: ```toml [env] SIMCONNECT_SDK = "path/to/sdk/lib" ``` - The path MUST contain both `SimConnect.dll` AND `SimConnect.lib`. This is usually in `...\MSFS SDK\SimConnect SDK\lib` ## Features - `static_link` - This will tell the compiler to staticly link SimConnect instead of requiring a `.dll` dependency
