OpenCPN pypilot plugin disconnected

[seandepagnier]

hmm... Thank you for being persistent!

It really is picky about order of steps. You found another issue! I believe installing pypilot from openplotter created some files. I am assuming you just did git clone and the setup.py install script (twice and I will look into this also) correct? You did not install the old version from openplotter first. I need to be smarter to handle all cases.

I think the issue is the ~/.pypilot directory is not created . I will fix this, but could you try:

mkdir ~/.pypilot

I will make the program create this directory if it is missing.
also, it is difficult to see the rate from boatimu. Could you open a second terminal and try:

pypilot_client -c imu.rate

and

pypilot_client -c imu.gyro

Try with both autopilot and boatimu
