Aircraft Power (Both versions of GIT)

Hey Steve a quick question I haven't been able to figure out. 

When I setup the aircraft power function, does that get exported to the profiles or is it just local to my PC only? 

I don't have a second PC to check.

EDIT: I have to say this feature is very cool,  on the IXEG in the sim the displays flicker off for a second as power transfers from one bus to the other and the exact same thing happens on the MCP and radios on my hardware!

    Hi Steve,

    No it doesn't get exported. I can add it to the dev plan if you wish.

    Best wishes

    Sounds like a good idea to me. It adds another level of realism if it's setup properly.

    What aircraft power function settings work best for IXEG?

    Also, why do I get "failed to load configuration for POWER" error next time I run GIT for this plane?
  • SlayerSlayer
    PIC   this is the setting I use for the IXEG

    Looks like a bug. I think Steve will have to look at the power thing. It works until the next time you load GIT and XP then I get the failed to load config for power too.

     It seems to be happening with other aircraft too not just the IXEG

    Hey Slayer,

    I played around with the electricals and found out that the instruments are powered either by DC Bus 1 or the Standby DC Bus.  DC Bus 2 only powers instruments as long as bus transfer is enabled.  The DC volts indicator changes based on the selector (set to test and indicator goes to zero) so not ideal.

    I created a custom Bespoke variable and put logic in START to model power availability.


    Hey Steve,

    Hopefully you can get the Aircraft power setting save fixed.  Might I suggest it be configured as a special Bespoke event POWER as this needs to be customized for every aircraft and can be stored in the aircraft xml

    Hi Steve (not Slayer)

    Can you acknowledge whether the above is operator error or a bug that can be put on the todo list?

    Thanks.

    I'm working on it!

    Best wishes
