Because the Tobii software is so bloody awful! (2020 here)

@jmarkows There are many humorous remarks I could make here... The passengers pay to get from A to B. Supplemented oxygen costs extra. Joking aside, I hope you're okay with how I have implemented it for the next update.

@windplr That's a good sign! I hope others will confirm this soon!

Unfortunately not. We cannot adjust the PID constants of the autopilot live in the simulation, so the only way to accomplish this would be to write my own completely custom autopilot, which is a lot of work, and even more testing, as I'm sure you can imagine.

@RealPax said in Loading the Caravan on the Water Damages the Engine: Fixed an issue where the aircraft could spawn with the engine running instead of in cold and dark state when using a custom “on ground” spawn location in the World Map. Oh, excellent! Thanks for letting me know! Well, at least that's one of many MSFS 2024 startup bugs fixed. I did look into this myself, but that explains why I was unable to find any configuration that made a difference.

Good afternoon everyone, I was at FS Weekend in Lelystad, Netherlands last March. I bought the Fokker there as a pre-order; it was indicated there that it is expected to be released around the end of April. Can the developer indicate what we can expect regarding the release? It has been quiet for a while now. Hopefully, you can provide me with this information. Thank you in advance for your reply. Regards, RichardV

For anyone struggling with this, here are my findings across a few planes. Its an interesting thing I promise First up: There are controls you can bind that work even for those ADF units that wont show or let you set decimals: [image: 38441838-343b-4448-9909-99ba1c496db1.png] That'll let you tun +/- 0.1 per button press, so you can make any of the ADF equipped planes work if you need to. And here's the verdict for various GA aircraft for those of us in the UK and elsewhere with .5 congested frequencies Tested by sitting on the ground at EGHI and trying to get 391.5 for the EAS NDB less than a mile away Cessna 172 G1000 (or I assume anything G1000) [image: 1d104a78-7cbb-41ee-b7be-89f68bbc2121.png] Lets you tune whatever decimal you like. Nice. Cessna 172 Steam [image: e2fbdcb6-84f3-4582-8c39-76f52decf1af.png] Fail. No Decimal tuning and no auto tuning. (you can use keybindings as above but you wont see the decimal changing - but you WILL see the freq round up to 392 when you set 391.5 Here's my stream Deck output showing (A:ADF ACTIVE FREQUENCY:1, Number) at the very same moment [image: bc14ed9e-153b-4f03-bd6b-e276ab9f8f98.png] Cessna 152 [image: f3fe0dfc-d1a0-4561-b127-68bc656361f2.png] Fail, same as the Steam 172. No decimals but you can use the keys if you can count to 5. Though interestingly, if you do use the keys it will show you have decimal, just not what that decimal is. [image: 1614b81d-0ae6-4001-b974-53ba34b78b62.png] And I can tell you that 391.5 works, but .4 or .6 does not. At all. The needle just dies immediately. JF Tomahawk and JF Pipers Auto, baby! Here's the unit... no room for decimals [image: 6103ea93-7023-4175-86d6-da1f8ccda33e.png] But about 5 seconds after tuning 391.0... We see (A:ADF ACTIVE FREQUENCY:1, Number) jump to 391.5 and lock, and the needle will move: [image: 997ad238-ce6c-4b1f-95bf-41543c94294a.png] Black Square Bonanza and Caravan: [image: 2cc3acf7-92b9-4f5a-99c3-4519734bb003.png] Both let you click the Off/Vol knob to add .5 each time. And have the . feedback to let you know its on .5. Nice. Black Square Starship [image: 1c47e06f-45eb-4193-8257-b6d946c4365b.png] AND [image: d3d09e44-6bcf-478a-a175-7aa415ddd730.png] Lets you set the decimal, and lets you do that in 2 different ways, because of COURSE it does. Because it's the best plane the company ever built. Blackbird Cessna 310R, Bagolu's Cessna Bushkit, etc etc I guess they use the default Asobo ADF KR80TSO unit because it does nothing clever. Here it is set to 391.5 using the keys: [image: 86b5ac4e-3a93-49cd-bb12-d6501e5ffa58.png] "Not ideal." Key points: Not too many people care about ADF especially .5 tuning. But we love those who do, @Black-Square and @just-flight! Asobo should implement auto .5 tuning, maybe in both directions, in their KR80TSO You can make it work in any ADF equipped plane using keybinds but they're not great. I apparently have nothing better to do than clog runways while playing with ADF

@Black-Square this wait is driving me crazy !!!

You're saying the GTN turns on when you turn off the lights? I'm not sure what to make of that, since the circuit power uses the underlying electrical simulation, which does not account for voltage drop. Are you draining the battery an enormous amount before starting, and then leaving the engine at idle RPM? Perhaps a video would be helpful to diagnose this one.

Thank you both @Mark and @Avionic for your replies. I can confirm I am using the custom 146 Simbrief profile, though as has been mentioned, the problem is unlikely to be with the profiles but more likely with the actual fuel burn rates in the simulator. Using my latest 146 flight as an example, the estimated Enroute Burn was 3930kg for a Route Distance of 614 nm (Estimated TOW 40,671 kg). The actual recorded burn was 2637kg. I am happy to provide further flight plans, figures etc and raise a support ticket with those details but I get the impression there is something more fundamental going on here. Simulator settings? Other possible conflicting addons such as GSX? Etc. Thank you both again.

Ok, thank you so much, appreciate it! I don't prefer the tooltips turned on but will remember it is +/- 100ft for every mouse wheel turn and just have to know when it is turned on or off. Appreciate the quick response!

Missing schedules in the Traffic Control Centre typically indicate an installation/activation-related issue. Our first suggestion would be to uninstall FS Traffic, download a fresh copy from the store you purchased it from, and then run the freshly downloaded installer. If, after a fresh install, you find that schedules are still missing, we would kindly recommend opening a ticket with Just Flight Support via the following link: https://www.justflight.com/support In the ticket, we would recommend including information regarding any error messages you are seeing during installation/activation, and then our support team will be in the best position to assist with troubleshooting this.

The exact file path for flight plan imports using locally stored files varies depending on which version of the simulator is being used (2020/2024) and which store version is being used (Microsoft Store/Steam). The relevant file paths are listed in the following FAQ under Method 1 CO ROUTE (Company Route): https://support.justflight.com/en/support/solutions/articles/17000142837-gnlu-910a-fms-how-can-i-import-a-flight-plan-from-simbrief- A direct Simbrief import was also added to the GNLU-910A in a recent update to the RJ that doesn't require locally saved flight plan files. The process of directly importing a Simbrief flight plan into the GNLU-910A is covered under Method 3: SimBrief Import: https://support.justflight.com/en/support/solutions/articles/17000142837-gnlu-910a-fms-how-can-i-import-a-flight-plan-from-simbrief- If either of those two options isn't available/aren't functional, we would recommend reinstalling the latest version of the RJ Professional to ensure that you have the latest version. If you continue to have any issues with the flight plan import, we would recommend opening a support ticket at Just Flight Support via the following link, and one of our support team will be able to assist with further troubleshooting: https://www.justflight.com/support Mark - Just Flight

Thanks again for this! I went through the new file, and everything looks perfect. It's those SetSimVarValue calls that really seem to affect performance when in great number, so the simple conditional is usually better. I will include this in my next updates, and I've already updated the manuals with the new variables. You're more than welcome to share the profile! Usually I worry about conflicts later down the line when a mod is made incorrectly, but in this instance, since you will be overwriting only the one file, and with the exact same code that will be in the next update, I think it's mostly safe. You're welcome to make your own package, or wait a month or two until my usual round of summer updates for all my aircraft. There are lots of little new features for all of them, so this will be a nice addition too! Thanks again.

I am using the TDS and getting this problem quite frequently. But this only happens when coming out of HDG mode. When using an RNAV procedure to get myself onto the ILS, it never happens. So far, I only encountered this when using Black Square aircraft. And yes, it might be a problem with the standard autopilot but still it’s quite an annoying bug. I love the Black Square aircraft but the autopilot implementation is really a weak point. A2A for example does a custom autopilot implementation for the Comanche and Aerostar and it shows. Much more realistic behaviour and one can actually operate the autopilot using the original manual. It’s quite a pity that Black Square uses highly customized systems for almost everything but then uses the standard autopilot.
