Environmental simulation: no influence wing vents / tail inlet
-
Hallo,
i recently bought the bonanza and have a lot of fun with it (like with the duke and the starship).
There is one thing i don´t understand referring to the environmental system. Neither open wing vents nor open tail inlet do have an influence on cockpit temperature. Flying at 20.000 feet (oat minus 20 Celsius degree) opening the vents have no influence.... temperature should drop instantly or do i miss something? In the A2A Comanche for example opening the vents instantly result in temperature drop....
Another little question: do the door seals in the turboprop have another purpose besides noise reduction?
It´s a lot of fun working with the systems and understanding how systems work and how things act in concert.
Greetings
A happy Bonanza SimPilot

Glad to hear that you're enjoying the Bonanza. I recently found that I missed including the vent variables in the temperature simulation, so currently they only influence the rate of temperature equalization if you are not actively heating or cooling the cabin. I'll fix this for the next update. You are also correct that the door seals only serve to reduce noise in the unpressurized Turbine Bonanza. Let me know if you have any more questions! You know where to find me.

@Black-Square Hi may I add my observations? The storm window operations has no influence on environment temp or press at all.
@gearup Since the Bonanza has no pressurization system, I assume you're speaking of the Baron? Everything looks in order with the code here. Currently, the storm window only changes the rate of cooling or heating (acting like another openable vent), but not the temperature, due to my oversight.
