ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
as of today when I start a career mission with the PC-12 I run into the following situation

  • accept mission
  • manage aircraft and check the condition and fuel of the aircraft
  • maintenance status of the various aircraft systems is either “good” or “new”
  • when I now try to start the aircraft with “strg”+“e” it won’t start and shows some batterie (1,2 and 1&2) plus “engine np” in the lower mfd
  • with that the aircraft does not even start (understandable) and it stays at “wating for engine start up”
  • a new start going again through the aircraft management step shows all systems “green” and there is no maintenace to perform
  • I tried this with two differnt PC-12 at different departure locations, same behaviour
    with that it becomes impossible to even start a mission
    all in all very disapointing

Have you tried plugging in what’s missing on the top panel?

2 things are not clear
Have you tried starting with the overhead panel? try to not start with the short cut

When you say all maintenance is done, have you clicked on each individual maintenance section to check underneath the title because when they are all at about 20% - 15% and still green it wont fly. I see you have renewed quite a few sections.

Last of all press escape and restart mission. It usually fixes things. Be careful is your throttle is too high on starting, if it starts, if the torque is too high you will always have an engine problem.

Otherwise I don’t have a solution.

Hi, thanks for the recommendation! I did not do anything different since before, but I face this situation since yesterday. However I did find a “solution” to it. If I’m just patient, the situation clears by itself. Usually when I pressed “strg+E” it took a couple of seconds (with the settings I have/had on the overhead panel) and the enigne started (as long as all maintenance was done), now if I’m just patient enough and wait roughly 3 minutes the engines starts. As everything loads as before, I would question that my Internet speed is the issue, also a bandwith check showed no problem here. One of the mysteries. But thanks again for your suggestions and help!
