Aircraft PMs in Sweatbox

I was mentoring a student at Portland Intl. on Sweatbox tonight, when I received repeated PMs from 4 different aircraft:

 

[05:148] ASA1290: This is a simulated plane/controller connection provided by SLC_CTR. No controller received your message.

 

Anyone know why this happened?

Gotta ask the obvious...

 

Were you sending any PMs, or perhaps using any aliases which send PMs?

This happens if Euroscope's training simulator is used. It is triggered if an ATC message is transmitted or a PM is sent to one of the aircraft.

 

Use the .busy command to block these PMs.

It actually happens when any text message is sent and Euroscope targets are in range, not just PMs or ATC messages.

 

I sent Gergely a note about this when I encountered the problem a while back. I believe he'll be fixing it in a future release.
