Story
787 Starts with 9000 lbs
Asks for 100% fuel
Truck 1 arrives, fills the tanks with 76000..
Another truck is sent for
Second truck arrives
Does nothing else but leaving the place like the driver seen a ghost or something.
Good to know:
It took me 2 attempts before the issue was found.

The video shows something quite different than what it seemed from your description. It's not as if GSX is "stuck" or stopped working, it's just that it decided to complete the refueling.
Checking the code, it seems it should happen if something else ( the user, or another app ), has changed the fuel quantity, are you sure you don't have anything that might acted on the fuel levels ?
That might not be the only possible case, but I need to prepare a special logging version with additional info you can try.

Hi
Thanks for getting into the code!!
Hmmm... let's see here. Could the APU being on an perhaps consume some fuel and so making a change between the 2 refuelings?
I'll test that!

I now ensured that the APU was off, which it wasn't during the last failed attempt.
This time all trucks did their work.
It might a lucky hit or this is the cause.
At what moments do the code check the difference. Or put in another way, when can I turn on the APU?

I'm not 100% sure it's the APU consumption, will need to do extra checks tomorrow ( it's almost midnight here ) and have some discussion with the other GSX programmer, since he made the refuel routine.
But in any case, the check is made for the whole duration of the refueling.
