Yes there was a problem with the altitude alert thing.
Not really a bug in the code, more an odd fact of FS that I'd forgot about. I have to keep so much crap in my head. :madhead:

You can't rely on FS to do everything you ask during loading, so the 1-11 & Trident both have this 8 second period of initialization when first loaded up. During this 8 seconds it just repeats certain settings over and over to make sure FS does what it's told.
I'd added a similar initialization on the VC10 but hadn't noticed that the gauge that counts the seconds was on the auto pilot window, not the main panel.
The gauges on each 2D window only run when that particular window is displayed. So it was continually initializing the alt altert to 10000, only ever stopping if the AP window was displayed (which then starts up the second counter).

So I've taken the 'AUTOPILOT_COUNTER' gauge off the autopilot window and put it on the main panel instead. All is now well.

The alt alert defaults to 10000 simply because if you leave it at zero it tends to beep a lot when you first load the model into the sim at the airport. 10000 is a useful number, because it gives you a beeped warning for the FL100 speed limit etc.

No lock on the nosewheel until you are airborne. FS animation is lacking for wheel steering & it is only linked to the rudder.
And 'auto rudder on' doesn't even animate the rudder, nevermind the nosewheel. :huf:

Thanks for the report
DM

I've updated the download on my website VC10_PANEL_20070103.zip, but this is the revised panel.cfg if you don't fancy downloading again.
Do make sure you only ever have one 'AUTOPILOT_COUNTER'. Don't leave the old one in the autopilot window! :tuttut:

I suppose this is for the panel.cfg only, as there are some differences between this and the panel_without_views.cfg...

"nose wheel lock only when airborne" ....and what have we.... whats the use for that?

Be glad that the crap you have in your head, is the crap we enyoj each and every day... :lol:

Another thing...last night I flew from Entebbe to Heathrow, and during the dusk that panel texture seemed to "fall back" into the older colors? Or is just my poor eyesight that cheats on me?

(And before you ask, yes I did turn on the panel light... :roll: )

"nose wheel lock only when airborne"
If you use the rudder during approach, the wheels don't move at the same time. ie. locked in place in the air, moves with the rudder on the ground.

There is only a panel.cfg in the latest download file.
panel_WITHOUT_VIEWS is an old file that's still on your PC from back in the days when panel views were cutting edge & possibly going to over stretch peoples systems.
I'm afraid you're on your own if you are using that one. :think:

FS does what it wants with colours in 2D panels.
I think it actually converts everything into 8 bit (or 16?), particularly noticable at dusk & night.
Nothing I can do about that either.

Just wanted to say, that the "new" ALT-hold is rock-steady

Whether or not it is the truth on the real thing or not, it sure is steady on FS :-)

Just one thing.

I don't know if you have thought about it yourself or not, but it wouldn't bother me if you got rid of that "other" AP ---- ;-)

The good thing about that 'other' AP is that it never shows unless you want to see it and what's more.. it is compatible with the myriad of fsim hardware that a lot of folk have :wink:
