Title: Airplane is bumping
Post by: heidjer1 on September 28, 2023, 09:25:57 pm
After the latest update (2.7.6) various problems occur.
1. Airplane is bumping several times while Pushback Tug is connecting.
2. When starting the simulator (P3Dv5.4) an error message opens. Various .png files are missing.
See log file attached.

About the missing thumbnails, the problem has been discussed several times, try using the Offlne installer.

About the airplane bumping, it's not possible to help you with such sparse description of the problem, like:

- What "the airplane" is

- Which kind of tug was used, Towbar or Towbarless ?

Firstly, after installing using the offline installer there are no longer any error messages. There is obviously a problem with the FSDT Live Updater.

Regarding airplane bumping:
- Airplanes are Aerosoft A320, A321 and A330
- Error occurs with the Tug Towbarless

Is there anyone who has an idea or maybe even a solution to the problem?

This is NOT a problem with the FSDT Live update, it's a problem of your local cloudflare node that still hasn't got the latest files, and it will obviously get them eventually. That's why the offline installer exists, not because the Live Update has a "problem" of course, but because nodes replication delay IS a thing that exists, and we don't have any control over it so, what else we can do, other than offering an Offline installer ?

Error occurs with the Tug Towbarless

Try to disable the "Pushback Raise" option in the airplane profile, is that precisely for this reason.

If it's not a problem with the Live Updater, then there's something wrong with the entire update design.
I use a lot of software with regular updates and there have never been any inconsistencies in the update process.
We can shorten it - it is what it is.

Your suggestion worked.  :)
