Couldn't find anything in the docomeentation regarding this, but I am having two small issues where I am running:

 

Host w/ voice on my FS PC

Remote on my secondary PC

 

1. Show incoming text message in simulator is checked in both clients, but I am not getting any message appearing in my flight simulator;

 

2. Sound buzzer for PTT while not in voice is checked in both clients, but I still get a buzzer sound;

 

3. Automatically squawk mode-C on take off is enable on the remote client, but it does not work.

Thanks for the report, Marc. I will check out #1 and #3. Can you double-check the wording of #2? The way you've written it, it sounds like it is working as expected.

I just released 2.0.13 in the Beta Updates channel. It should address all of these issues. Please give it a try and let me know if it does or does not take care of the issues for you.

Issues #2 & #3 resolved.

 

I do not think issue #1 is resolved, but I will do more testing and advise. So far, my messages to other pilots on Unicom are not working. Flying in Russia right now and there is not a lot of traffic, so I will wait to see if incoming messages work.

Are you expecting to see your outgoing text radio messages appear in your sim? I'm not sure why ...

Hi Ross,

 

I guess, in my particular case, it would be practical, simply because I stream all my flights on Twitch, so it would be a nice to have, to have my out-going messages on Unicom displayed in my flight sim.

 

I do concur, that this would not necessarily be practical for everyone.

Yeah, the only reason the option exists to show text messages in the sim is for people that don't have the monitor space to have the vPilot window visible during flight. You still need to switch to the vPilot window to respond anyway, so there's no point in copying outgoing messages to the sim since you see them in the vPilot window.

In my case, I am running the host one my flight sim PC and the remote on the secondary where I respond to messages. I guess my request was simply to have the same display in my PC as if I was only using everything on PC with an additional nice to have.

 

No big deal.
