Strange behaviour with parking brake and brake pedals
-
I don't know if this one is an issue of the Caravan Pro or of the MSFS. But you'll tell me.
I'm standing with a running engine, throttle in an area where the aircraft would begin to roll but parking brake set. Then I push both brakes on my pedals and release the parking brake. And the Caravan will begin to roll.
I did an inspection using the variable observer of Axis And Ohs. And I see these values before releasing the parking brake:- (A:BRAKE PARKING POSITION, Bool) = 1
- (A:BRAKE LEFT POSITION, Number) = 1
- (A:BRAKE RIGHT POSITION, Number) = 1
After releasing the parking brake, no matter if I use my hardware or the click spot inside the cockpit, all values are changing to 0 resulting in a rolling Caravan. I have to move the brakes again to have the brakes set to full again.
If possible it would be nice to have that fixed, because I would expect that releasing the parking brake with pushed normal brakes would still apply full brakes.

@Ape42 You might be the new record holder for posting the longest standing bug in Microsoft Flight Simulator. I recall having this issue as far back as Flight Simulator 5 in 1994. I can imagine how I would program a workaround for all my aircraft, which I will add to the backlog. If it's easy, then I will do it for the next update. Thanks for sharing. I'm so familiar with some of these 30+ year old bugs that they are probably invisible to me by now!
