1.) Are they handled with UDP or TCP/IP.
2.) I have Google Earth talking to a webserver, which then talks to a
server i wrote in C++, when dealing with updates. I found out that
when a refresh occurs, Google Earth will attempt multiple connects,
making my webserver connect to my C++ server multiple times in a
matter of a second. This does not cause desirable results, and I am
wondering if anyone else has come across this issue, or if i have to
do some serious tweakage. Thanks for your time and answers everyone
2) There are a number of threads, about people having similar issues
when using the Mac Version of GE. Have a look at some of them to see
if it matches what you see. Otherwise you could include more specific
details of your setup (eg software versions) and possibly a couple
example KML files.
