I now had three times already that xplane quite , but only halfheartedly leaving me logged on to vatsim ( something to do with extplane.... )

this has now caused a 24 ban for me ( no words for that super visor ) (while sitting on the ground parked for 16 hours during my night)

 

since I drive a hardware driven cockipt I do shutdown everything in the panels before I quit xplane

now would it not be nice to have a DREF that says : xpilot: disconnect ( cmd would be great) , that way I could add that to my avionics switch

There is a dataref that xPilot publishes that indicates the network login status ("xpilot/login/status"). A value of 1 would indicate that xPilot is connected to the network. A value of 0 would indicate that xPilot is disconnected from the network.

yes I saw that, but i think this is readonly

i meant the other way around, so that if I flip the avionics switch to OFF it would also disconnect xpilot

(like with xhsi you can actively shutdown connect clients)
