Dollies not Empty

<< < (2/3) > >>

mroschk:
Make the GPU/ASU to be as a user choice enabled or disabled.
Users with any AddOn Aircraft which have a working GPU must not use the one from GSX.
So i can be , same as the Dollies , a eye-candy.

The Dollies looks not very realistic if the come loaded to the plane to unload anything.
It just LOOKS not very nice and realistic.

You just made my point: if we had a fake GPU, users with an airplane that has a working one will disable it, and users without one, will not get any benefit, and will instead get frustrated if it's not working. So, we'll have some users that won't care for it, and others that will be frustrated by how it was made. Sorry, no.

You still don't understand: nobody expects the luggage loading process would be of any benefit to the usage of the sim, which is why it's ok for it to be just just eye-candy, because it cannot be anything else. A GPU, instead, COULD be useful, because it might supply with power when you need to turn off engines, which is exactly what GSX requires.

That's why, we'll try to do it, but as a WORKING one. So, for the last time, just drop it, because GSX won't have a fake GPU. It might have, instead, a working one.

mroschk:
User without a working GPU from the AddOn can not have a working GPU??
You can always connect ( turn on ) the GRD-Power ( provided by the GPU ).
If the Beacon/ACL is off or the Brakes are not set the GPU will not appear.. as a Tip. Because then the GRD Power is not working. :-)

Why can the loading/unloading process not load/unload the Airplane ??
You can , as it Topcat and some other Tools do, load/unload the Aircraft via FSUIPC/SimConnect.
So, if the empty Dollie come to unload the Aircraft, subtract ( lets say ) 20kg from the weight of the unloaded Station. That works with every Aircraft, also with PMDG or other AddOn Aircrafts.

Ok, the ASU is maybe a Problem, because not every airplane understand that the Air Pressure is given to start the Engines. Maybe, but i am not sure here.

They obviously can't, since there's no such system in FSX. It can only be made with some kind of hack, like the "eternal" battery feature in FSUIPC.

We cannot "connect" anything, because such system doesn't exist by default.

WHICH IS WHY, we must find a way to support different 3rd party addons, to provide power "universally" OR connecting through their own system.

But again, 3rd party airplanes that DO simulate ground power, usually have their own visible vehicles.

I don't know what you are trying to say here. It seems you got it backwards: it's not that we should know WHEN to display a FAKE GPU "because there's no power". The issue is to command, with GSX, a GPU that will actually supply power.


--- Quote ---Why can the loading/unloading process not load/unload the Airplane ??
--- End quote ---

Because there's no way to know from FSX what a loading station means. It only has a name, but there's no way to reliably know what it represents. It might be a whole cargo bay area, but it can also be a single person (like "the pilot" ). This, of course, has been discussed many times already too.

Why you keep insisting that Topcat "works with every Aircraft", when you were ALREADY proven wrong about it, here ?

If we tried to change the airplane weight in real time, the balance and the height will change, so the GSX vehicles will not match it the doors anymore so, it will be very messy to fix it, because we would have to estimate how much the GSX vehicles (that don't even have a "flight model") should compensate for it.

Don't you think we already THOUGHT (and TRIED IT) already ? And yes, it CAN be seen, and it's quite annoying.

It's the same as a GPU, no default system exists. And every 3rd party airplane does it differently.

WHICH IS WHY, we still don't have a GPU. As explained, so many times already...

Eisbahn:
Hi Umberto. Why don't you just ignore (or even ban this person) and save your valuable time on the really important updates still outstanding.
I'm sure there are many more members who would agree that this would be an excellent idea.
