I write so extensively here for two reasons: one, not everyone here uses Discord and it’s better that a larger review is in place over someone else’s “nothing changed fss sux” (and since I’m not in beta FSS asked to not be sent those anyways). Two, it’s so someone can call me out for any mistakes I make like you have since I’m just an armchair peelot
This is me not looking at what I write, I meant the radio page in the FMS - I need to swap to a different one and back to see the changes, but they are effectively entered (which I could see in FSHud recognizing the value changes).
However, I seem to have figured it out: if I go back in time while I’m loaded into a flight, this issue occurs. Using Preset to go either way while on the map screen doesn’t cause this error. Neither did swapping to Live from a custom one, interestingly.
No unofficial profiles, current GSX version, if I request the fuel truck via the GSX menu the integration option gets stuck on “Loading” and eventually leaves without having loaded any fuel. Same happens when I use the EFB’s “GSX” option: it goes through the motions, but neither fuel, passengers nor cargo are loaded.
On my throttle, I have bound two settings: Instruments and Systems -> Flight Instruments -> Increase/Decrease Heading Bug. This binding is recognized and functional in every plane I fly, with the exception of FSS Embraers, and it’s a pain since I can’t always focus on just scrolling through them, or it’s too slow and I fall behind while doing it. The Shift option is more helpful but doesn’t solve the underlying issue.
Just like radio, this also seems to be a bug caused by changing time - it works properly only if I don’t fiddle with it, but is 100% reproducible if I do.
Though I wasn’t instructed to descend this time, the derate options are still very much a work in progress.
Interestingly, this time I did an early direct and the PTH was captured way before the TOD at the vertical profile, and the automatic speed of 233kt was way below the computer’s claim of 290/.7 - did not change even after I swapped to Vmo/Mmo. Also, I tried an RNAV approach and luckily I was in visual, because I would have crashed miles before the strip if I followed that. Yes I did set up the air pressures and minima on both MFDs
And this is what I meant at the start, some things I just don’t know. Thanks for pointing this out!
Yup, forgot to mention that it does, and did scream at me for an incomplete setup.
I also don’t have pedals so it was nice to see after the initial scare, but it makes me question the viability of LO autobrake even more - if it was overpowered then, I’m gonna need a space shuttle’s landing distance now lol
cant wait till the public update.
