Autosend COT forwarding issue #194

Open whiskas85 opened 11 months ago

whiskas85 commented 11 months ago

I have 3 nodes:

A: Connected to SERVER
B: Connected to SERVER + Meshtastic Forwarder
C: Connected Mesttastic Forwarder

If I set a COT in AUTOSEND on:

C: everyone receive it (Node B forward it to node A)
B: everyone receive it
A: just B receive it. Node B do not forward it to Meshtastic Plugin

The same happens for positioning

Hey @whiskas85, thanks for the report, I've experienced the same on my side :+1: .

You can imagine the connection between ATAK and a Server (likely over WiFi) as a big pipe, and the connection to Meshtastic as a little straw. You couldn't feed the big pipe of the ATAK->Server connection into the tiny straw of the ATAK->Meshtastic connection without clogging it up.

Yes I understand the situation. What about bulk update them in one message? Removing all the useless information but keeping ID and position. Do you think can be possible?
