my laptop has a built in gps that uses Windows Sensor API

No matter what software i use to try and create a virtual com port with NMEA data, Vistumbler will freeze and lock up (Though this is likely because the software i'm using to create the com port is returning null NMEA messages)

I've used Centrafuse Localizer GUI for this with my windows tablet with built in gps. I've had the best luck setting the localizer to run as administrator and making sure the port number is below COM8

I have looked into making Vistumbler support the API directly, but I haven't had any luck finding how to do this in autoit (the language vistumbler is written in). https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/165249-windows-location-api-with-autoit/

I'm going to look at this later, maybe autoit has some built in support
