RELEASED: Open beta of PSXseeconTraffic

Bonjour Francois,

Thank you for your feedback. From the log I conclude that everything is ok.

I think that PSXseeconTraffic did not "hang at Corsica", but that there simply were no aircraft within range and fullfilling your height and livery filter settings. The message "Traffic detected and buffering ... "was presumably generated upon out of range traffic. This is wrong, I'll change that in the next version.

Regards,
Nico

Version 1.0.8 is up, here are the release notes.

Most important change: much smoother movements of aircraft!

Hi Peter,
Absolutely, my pleasure.

I've just put up version 1.0.9, with a small optimization that might be of interest to you.
Here are the Release Notes

Regards,
Nico
P.S I'm glad that BA still has a lot of 747's, it's a very nice sight at Heathrow

Hi Nico,

With version 1.08 I have noticed an issue. When my plane is parked on ground, PSXseenconTraffic sometimes stops with the reason : "Warning: Repositioning occurred, PSXseeconTraffic will exit ..." which is not true
Here is my logfile :

Well, that's strange, because I get that info from PSX, via Hardy's Qs122 variable StartPiBaHeAlVsTasYw .
It reads "if first digit is not 0, a repositioning has occured. "
?
If this happens more often, please let me know, then I might consider to make this test optional.

Hi Nico,

You can easily reproduce the issue. If you start for exemple from the pre-define situation : 01 Departure 001- Sidney - Los Angeles.situ and you switch off the beacon lwr, PSXseeconTraffic stops.

Regards

François

kiek

Francois,

That's caused by VisualPSX; it has some re-positioning "tricks" in which the beacon plays a role.
If you run PSXseeconTraffic without VisualPSX, you will notice that it remains rock stable...

This unlucky interaction is inconvenient, so I think I will remove my test on repositioning. Drawback being that PSXseeconTraffic might run into an exception situation (indicated at the bottom with a red message). You have to exit PSXseeconTraffic then manually (but only in real repositioning situation).

Nico


Hardy Heinlin

Hi Nico,

how about checking the distance that VisualPSX generates when jumping around the airport? I guess it's never greater than an airport area, say, 7 nm. So, if it's less than 7 nm, ignore the repositioning?


Regards,

Hi Hardy,
Sounds like a good idea.
Thx.
Nico

Garry Richards

Hi Nico,

Turning the beacon off (provided that other conditions are met) places VisualPSX into lock mode. It then freezes the position of the FSX/P3D aircraft and moves PSX to that same position. The user may then also select a departure runway and PSX will move to that runway position and then back to the locked position. PSX will then move again so that the correct runway offset will be in place when it taxies to the threshold.

You might be able to detect the spurious relocation by comparing the positions of PSX and the FSX/P3D user aircraft. If PSX has relocated but the FSX/P3D aircraft has not moved then you could ignore the relocation.

Hope this helps. Cheers,
Garry

Hi Garry,

Thx for this idea, I should indeed do that.
However, the implementation is rather complicated while the user aircraft in the Scenery generator is not my concern, and I'd like to keep it that way.
Therefore,  for the time being I have removed my re-positioning detection. Without it, people can (implcitly) lock and unlock VisualPSX without "disturbing" PSXseeconTraffic, so the aircaft around you will not disappear.

It is only when one re-positions the PSX aircraft via the Instructor panel, that PSXseecon traffic runs into an exception mode, just like loading a new situ, something PSXseeconTraffic is able to detect via the load1 message.

Cheers,
Nico

Version 1.1.1 is up.
The anti-slow down measures during take-off were not correct for some runways, resulting in aircraft sliding off the runway. Had to remove it.

Hi,
Version 1.1.2 is up, here are the release notes.

Bug fixed in the algorithm that injects aircraft in PSX. Up till now you could not have the Above-Below ranges -2700 ft to 7000ft and +2700 ft to -7000ft.  Now all aircaft within +/-7000 ft in height, and being in front of or not more than 5 nm behind your 744, are injected, with a maximum of 7. If there are more than 7, the closest ones in lat/lon distance have preference.
