BeamNG.drive Remote Control

Remote Control app for the PC game BeamNG.drive.

Communication functionality

App sends out a broadcast in its local wifi on port 4444. It sends the string "beamng" + device-name.
It then listens on the same Port for the string "beamng" as an answer to start the communication.
Main communication takes place on port 4445
App sends the floats:
- Steering-angle between 0 (right) and 1 (left)
- Throttle 1 for pushed otherwise 0
- Breaks 1 for pushed otherwise 0
App needs following structure for incoming packages:
