CPDLC not working and ET Chrono weird sync #2

Open hurfifx opened 1 year ago

hurfifx commented 1 year ago

Hi there, I want to say thank you at first for your great addition it's so cool, I've been testing your file for the whole day with my friend and we found some workarounds for desync issues or how to use gsx together and it was a great experience.

Tonight we tried cpdlc for the first time (simbrief is good) and my friend received the departure clearance with datalink and I didn't get anything. I was the host and he was using my hoppie and simbrief info in the fenix.

For the ET Chrono (found above the landing gear, top down chrono) when I hit run its working for us but if I moove it to reset on the right and put it to on again, it will be on desync.

I will keep posting if I find other bugs. I can also post workaround if people have a small desync in the fmc (for example host/slave have more acars message than the other one and cause desync to read company messages; or CLR entry on the text field in fmc and the other one doesnt have it etc)

Please feel free to share your workarounds. I am very interested, I would like to try it out tonight too. Maybe I can also benefit from your tips

FENIX RELATED : If one of you ONLY have CLR in the txt field MCDU, hit mdcu menu and select any option (ATSU...), it will throw an error and you will be able to CLR and you will now both have a cleared txt field. If one of you Have more ACARS message than the other, go to the tablet in fenix app, mass and balance hit resend loadshet as many times you need to have the same amount of acars messages. If one of you ONLY have a different heading, do a direct to a waypoint then pull heading again. If one of you ONLY have A/THR engaged, both users pull THR to IDLE then TO CLB and press A/THR on the FCU. If one of you have different fuel (probably because you are not using the same server on microsft and then you have weather discrepency) go to mcdu menu config then fuel and the host fuel will be applied to the slave.

GSX RELATED : When you use GSX doors can close ealier and block the boarding of your friend so crosscheck this every 5 minutes during gsx load operations. To reduce the chances of this happening use the simbrief option of GSX and make sure to start every service at the same time with your friend. I recommend using a chrono inside the plane for coordination. I recommend not using pushback tug that lift the aircraft but the smaller one that only connect to the noosewheel (you can tune that in gsx airport config).

Thanks for your comment, I will check the CPDLC and ET Chrono with my team. And your solution for some out of sync problem are very useful, I will add it into the next Readme.md.

Thanks for credit :) You can also add that FSRealistic will make the aircraft looks like its going up and down for the slave, when in the air
