Hi,

it seems you loaded an old situation file that doesn't contain the "SdcTimers" variable for the new engine autostart program system.

Can you tell me which situ file you loaded?

Did you update your situ files for version 10.1.7?

Or did that happen when an add-on connected to the server?


Cheers,

Dear Hardy,

You're right it was caused by a addon we developed which was misbehaving sending throttle data and when we fixed it all was OK.

Thanks,
