Tim Simpson Posted November 30, 2019 at 03:12 PM Posted November 30, 2019 at 03:12 PM This has occurred in the two FNO's I've flown in using xpilot. As the number of pilots on frequency increases, X-Plane starts pausing randomly for 3 to 5 seconds. X-Plane just freezes, and then resumes again after the 3 to 5 seconds has p[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ed. This only happens when I'm logged in with xpilot, and only during high voice volume times during an event. I'll also note that it was two different aircraft (LES SAAB and Rotate MD80). Has anyone else had this happen, or heard of it happening? It's making events not be very fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Rook 873873 Posted November 30, 2019 at 04:50 PM Posted November 30, 2019 at 04:50 PM I get stutters no matter if I'm connected or not. I'll be glad when the Dev's get things smoothed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how you would get stutters from xPilot if it's not even connected to the network... What are your system specs? What CSL package(s) do you have installed?

What are your system specs? I'm at work....I'll answer back when I get home. One thing to note, I'd call the issue a pause, and not a stutter. A stutter is short lived, but motion continues. I'm seeing the sim just stop for 3 to 5 seconds, then start moving again smoothly. I don't see this behavior with low user volumes, like on any non-event flight. Seems like it's either the number of pilots burdening xpilot, or, the number of controller connections that blooms during an event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, It works fine. Easy and seamless to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Simpson Posted December 1, 2019 at 02:00 PM Author Posted December 1, 2019 at 02:00 PM Follow up: Did a couple of test flights in the Oakland and Los Angeles ARTCC's, using all the plugins I normally use. I flew the Zibo and the ToLiss A319. With "normal" traffic levels, and a couple controllers on, there were no X-Plane pauses. Then flew for a bit disconnected from the client offline, with no pauses either. Clearly a client issue, or an overload of the audio server causing an issue with the heavy burden of an event. FYI, the event was the Albuquerque FNO on 11-30-2019. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Shannon Posted December 8, 2019 at 04:37 PM Posted December 8, 2019 at 04:37 PM Tim, did you by chance look at your task manage performance tab when X-Plane “paused” to see what the CPU utilization of both X-Plane and xPilot was?
