Hey, glad to hear you like it! Unfortunately SFTP is a completely different protocol under the hood (SFTP uses a secure channel), so the two aren't compatible. I could program support for it, but I would need somebody to lend me their server login to test against.
That being said, I believe you should still be able to set it up outside of the tracker. If you can mount the FTP folder of the server as a network drive/folder in Windows, you can just set your tracker to use that drive letter/folder path.
I believe you can do this in Windows by right clicking on "This PC" in the left browser pane of the file explorer then clicking "Map network drive..." Then click "Connect to a Web site that you can use to store your documents and pictures"
I haven't tried this myself since I don't have a server, but I have no reason to believe this shouldn't work. The only thing about doing it this way would be that you won't get the "next refresh estimate" feature that tells you how long until the next server autosave. Hope this helps, and good luck on the runs!

Thanks so much for the detailed reply! I gave this method a try and was able to add the ftp connection to the server, but it looks like it's added as a network location, not mounted as a drive. So I can't choose it in the Browse for Folder menu within AATool. Based on some quick searching, I think it can be mounted in a way that would work using third-party tools (haven't tried any yet), but not natively in Windows.
If you're interested in adding ftp support and just need ftp access to a server to test against, I'd be happy to get another server through the hosting service we're using. It's only a few dollars. Just let me know and I'll set it up and send you credentials.
Thanks again for your help!

Sorry for the delay, been really busy irl. If it isn't too much trouble and you're still interested that would be incredibly helpful! I think it'd be cool to eventually have support for a whole bunch of dedicated server hosts. Also if you tell me your preferred screen name I can add you to the tool's credits for your contribution if you would like
Thanks!

Yup, definitely still happy to help. Just let me know what email address is best and I'll set up a server and send you credentials. Or if you don't want to post an email address publicly, you can reach me at this username at gmail.

Just wanted to check in on this. I totally understand if you're just too busy or if other features are more pressing, but if you're still interested in adding ftp support, I'm still happy to pay for a server for a month.

Most hosting websites only offer FTP in their plans, I'd also like to see FTP support...

Also very interested in FTP support, any update on this?
from aatool.
Just wanted to add a +1 to this feature request and a note about how I worked around the lack of FTP. There's a freeware tool called FTPUse that can be used to mount an FTP folder as a drive in Windows. I followed the instructions on this page and setup a batch file to run on startup that mounts the drive and things now work flawlessly. Map FTP as Drive
from aatool.
Is this still a possibility in the future? I would love to use this on my servers, but the option given is not working for me.
from aatool.
I'm still using the batch file with FTPUse to mount to a local drive letter (as noted above) and that still works. It would be nice to have native FTP support, but this workaround is very easy to setup if you're looking to hack around it.
Edit to add: I have the batch file on my desktop and I have to leave the window open that runs the batch script in order for it to work properly
from aatool.
@SnipyPlays I haven't been able to get FTPUse to work fluidly, but DriveMaker seems to work well. However, it's not free software (or rather the free version has significant limitations).
@DarwinBaker I'm still happy to cover the cost of a server for you (or set one up for you) for a month if you're interested in adding native FTP support.
