@black-square said in XNPDR powers up in ALT mode:
Hi All,
I have made the small change necessary for the transponder to boot up in "ON" mode after a cold and dark start. The best practices vary by country, but in the US, you are expected to operate in altitude reporting mode at all times, including during ground operations. For this reason, I have the very similar transponder in my own airplane default into altitude reporting mode after startup.
As for the payloads, this is a well documented MSFS bug that's been there since day one. We've been doing our best on the developers forum to get them to fix this, but no luck so far. The fuel interface is also bugged, unfortunately. The fuel is loaded from the saved state, and the interface will show it correctly, but any attempt to modify the fuel level will reset all tanks to the default level. This is why so many developers have chosen to just have their own fuel and payload interfaces. I can't make any promises at this time, but something like this is in the works for Black Square aircraft too.
Thank you!
Nick C.
Please, please do so ....
That MSFS payload manager is a pain in ...., you know where ;-)
It would be (more or less) a one time effort for all existing and future BSQ aircraft .
