Strange problem with doors
« on: January 30, 2015, 09:17:18 pm »
Hello everybody,

I've found a strange bug that affect the PMDG 777 when I try to board passengers and luggages on the plane: before to start boarding, I can open and close the door of the aircraft without problem, but after I start to board the door page get "locked", and I cannot close or open any door...even if I reset the parking position, the door page is still locked.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for your replies

Your question doesn't have anything to do with GSX, which doesn't control the airplane doors in any way so, it's really how question about how to use the PMDG 777.

What is probably happening, is that you don't have power (electrical and/or hydraulic) to open the doors, because you turned off the engines without enabling an alternate source of power, such as the APU or the External power, so you cannot open doors without such power.

But of course, this doesn't have anything to do with GSX, it would have happened just the same, if you turned off engines without boarding. It's just that GSX requires you to turn off engines in order to start boarding, so maybe you linked the two things being consequentials, but they aren't.
