Agh, that section of code was just a mess, so I rewrote it. There was little code left from the Analog Caravan, but that was some of it. Should be all better now. Thanks.

In the 1997 revision of the Caravan I POH that I based my work on, I have the standard empty weight of Cargomasters S/N 208B0179-208B0381 and associated STC's at 4,040 lbs, including the cargopod. Of course, all aircraft have different equipment installed from the factory, and have many modifications over the years that impact empty weight, but perhaps this came from a confusion over the inclusion of the cargopod, which weighs around 150 lbs. Would you like me to adopt this new 4,040 lbs number? I will promise not to refer anyone who complains about the loss of 115 lbs useful load to you

This is something inherent to how I implement my turbine engine simulation on top of the native engine simulation. I've briefly entertained adding a compensation for time acceleration in my code, but I'm not actually sure it would behave the same on every computer, since I think it has more to do with the simulation polling rate than the time acceleration itself. In the meantime, this effect should not be limited only the fuel flow, but the entire engine simulation, so adjusting the power lever position at your desired time acceleration should yield correct performance and fuel burn results.

Just did a quick test, with stress damage disabled you can "open" the door without crashing. By open i mean the door does barely open due to wind. Only a small gap will be visible. And of course the sound does change. I do not use OnAir but if it stress damage is not mandatory this is the solution.

One of the most inviting views in the sim [image: 727f8029-985e-4c16-b387-4fa9ec21a16d.png]

@jmarkows Oh. I used the search in my PDF viewer and it didn't find that section! Weird. Thanks!

@mtmikepsl said in Fuel amount not correct: Looks like the fuel reads 2010 lbs of fuel max. Where are you seeing this number?

@Black-Square Thank you! After browsing through my app data folder, found that the HOBBS meter is saved in the state.cfg C:\Users\<my user name> \AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\SimObjects\Airplanes\bksq-aircraft-bonanzapro\state.cfg [engine.0] accumulated_time=1.703573 --- this was my last flight accumulated_time_hobbs=19 --- this I set manually and this displays on the instrument

@C525B said in Heating too weak?: @jmarkows I think it's that the cabin shouldn't be cooling down as fast as it is, once airborne. There's residual heat, plus systems and passenger bodies that continue to contribute heat to the environment. I think I see what you mean now. In flight at 7000, OAT is about 10C, and all that solar heating effect on the ground seems to be gone.

@Black-Square said in Rudder trim wheel: Sorry if I sound obstinate, but I've been down this road of checking the trim wheel directions for each aircraft I release, haha. Upon further investigation, I feel so silly for even bothering you with it. I was playing around with it a bit more today and was about to record a video because I was sure that even at a very low speed it was flip flopping on rotation direction when I thought to look at the side of the wheel. The four screws on the side of the trim wheel confirm everything you said, my sincerest apologies again for the hassle.

@Black-Square Nick, do you know what .flt file it would use for spawning on a random water location? Could you give me the code for a line in said file to have the inertial separator loaded in set to bypass instead of normal? I want to see if that has an effect. Of course, finding out which .flt file is in use might be half the answer, anyway.

Nothing is wrong with your install. I experience the same when using the KLN90B autopilot. The display shows nothing, even though the autopilot appears to function, although with no annunciations. As soon as I hot-swap the KLN90B to, for example, the GNS530 suite, all of a sudden, all annunciations come back.

Nick, please, a little update or beta test opportunity ,-)

Agree, would be great to be able to have the speeds in km/h!

@SteveKane Very interesting results!! I will eagerly await more testing! This could explain why I have never seen this, since I don't use any 3rd party hardware applications that might be polling the variables or causing whatever hiccup is related to this in MSFS 2024.

@asnamara Wonderful! I'm glad I could make the improvements you were looking for. I never promise that it's perfect, but with every piece of feedback, hopefully it gets a little better

Hey. Yeah, having the same issue. Can't read the labels in VR during daylight. And I am running a Meganex8K with a 4090, so there are a lot of pixels rendered, but this still isn't enough. Luckily there aren't that many switches, so I just memorized them. But I also have the problem with very bright sunlight making the gauges a bit dim. This seems to be a sim problem. Had that in other planes too. In MSFS 2020 you could mitigate that effect by turning on the gauge lighting, but in MSFS 2024 it doesn't work until it gets darker outside. Made a bug report about that ages ago, but didn't got enough votes to be looked at.
