Hi, I have just updated my system to OpenCPN 5.6.2 with Pypilot Plugin 0.34.4.0 and the latest Pypilot version from Github. All seems to be working fine but every time I re-start Pypilot I have to re-calibrate the compass as all the previous data shown on the plugin calibration page is zero. Pypilot is definitely reading data from pypilot.conf; I can stop pypilot, edit pypilot.conf eg by changing imu.compass.calibration from false to true, then restart pypilot and the true box is ticked on the plugin calibration page. However if I untick the locked box, then stop pypilot and look at the .conf file, the imu.compass.calibration is still set to true. So it would appear that the .conf file is not being updated when changes are made using the plugin.
All the other data in the .conf file (gains etc) seem to be updated OK.
One other quick question: pypilot, pypilot.boayimu and pypilot.web are set up as services but pypilot_hat is not. I have added a new file in /.config/autostart to run it at startup, but would it be better to run it as a service?
Many thanks
David
