Hello everyone. Im trying to use FSnav to see if there is other traffic in the area and It is only showing very few planes like one, when on SB many people are communicating. Is there some sort of draw distance that is limited in FSnav? is there any way I can change this? any help would be appreciated.

Hello Richard,

I had this problem to. When I log into SB, I have to manually go to File/Multiplayer/and log in. THis way I can see everyone else. When I open up FSnav, I go under the option to connect to multiplayer. Here, it should auto setup what FS is setup to to log in. All you have to do is just type your login name that you are using for SB/FS and hit ok. It should log in automaticlly. Now I don't know if you have to log into SB the same way, but remember, that FSnav can only read aircraft so far away. I don't think there is any way of setting the distance. If you explore the settings menu under FSnav, and see that there is no setting control, then its set to a certain distance. Don't forget, if you see them on 122.800, then they might be to far away for FSnav to pic up.

If anything, use the application serverinfo found hereSERVERINFO

 

I hope this helped some. Im sorry that Im not that good in explaining much. Maybe someone can clear it up better.
