Opher Ben Peretz 882232 Posted November 21, 2007 at 03:06 PM Posted November 21, 2007 at 03:06 PM Hi, while connected at EURW_FSS, a bordering position EGGX_FSS cannot be seen, neither on controller list, nor is the common border lit. My range is set to maximum- 600. EDIT: VRC didn't see him either, so it may be a non-ES problem.

Glenn Blanco 852844 Posted November 21, 2007 at 06:24 PM Posted November 21, 2007 at 06:24 PM check your POF/ESE. The position might not have been defined there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Doorgakant Posted November 21, 2007 at 06:55 PM Posted November 21, 2007 at 06:55 PM May sound silly, but the common mistakes: 1) Check vis range, but with EGGX's vis range aswell they should be seen. 2) Check ESE as Glenn has said. Can you paste the ESE entry if you can? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opher Ben Peretz 882232 Posted November 21, 2007 at 08:37 PM Author Posted November 21, 2007 at 08:37 PM Thanks for suggestions. My original post stated 600NM range, LEBL is the reference center. The .sct/.pof files are the standard files updated by VATEUD. I had no problems seeing all other control positions.

Gergely Csernak Posted November 21, 2007 at 10:14 PM Posted November 21, 2007 at 10:14 PM Opher, When you publish your visibility center and range then it the server's task to determine what other controllers are within reach. So really the only thing you can check and probably change is the center point and the range. And that is quite straightforward with the EDIT that VRC does not see him as well. Gergely.

Daniel Doorgakant Posted November 21, 2007 at 10:40 PM Posted November 21, 2007 at 10:40 PM A problem I had in a previous version of EuroScope, (2.9b) was that when I set my visibility centres, they would reset and my aircraft would not see me, same with the nearby controllers. I think this was fixed in 2.9c, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opher Ben Peretz 882232 Posted November 22, 2007 at 04:56 AM Author Posted November 22, 2007 at 04:56 AM Thanks for suggestions. I'll check it with v.2.9C. I can see Carribean centers with 4 times the distance, so how much my LEBL visibility center plays here to see a bordering sector I am not sure I understand.

Opher Ben Peretz 882232 Posted November 22, 2007 at 08:32 AM Author Posted November 22, 2007 at 08:32 AM With radar operating, EURW sector loaded around LEBL and range 600, I can see aircraft westward, up to the dateline (west of alaska).

Martin Loxbo Posted November 22, 2007 at 08:57 PM Posted November 22, 2007 at 08:57 PM I had a similar problem with seeing another controller tonight, I was online as an Observer and I couldn't see ESSA_APP in the list. I had three visibility centers and a range of 280 NM, thereby covering the entire FIR with good margins. Still I couldn't see ESSA_APP, but all other controllers (as far as I'm aware). When I reset one visibility center to ESSA he finally showed up. Martin Loxbo Director Sweden FIR VATSIM Scandinavia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opher Ben Peretz 882232 Posted November 23, 2007 at 01:34 PM Author Posted November 23, 2007 at 01:34 PM I tend to think it is a visibility range issue somhow, not related to the client. When visibility center is set close, that EGGX_FSS position would come up but only following a few minutes of connection to the server. What exactly is the visibility range rule? (VRC had it to border to vis center, ASRC- center to center I believe). Regards, Opher Ben Peretz Senior Instructor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Doorgakant Posted November 23, 2007 at 07:31 PM Posted November 23, 2007 at 07:31 PM I'm on Shanwick (EGGX_FSS) as I write this, and I saw Opher on EURW_FSS for a few seconds and then gone, I'm not sure if he had disconnected or whether this problem occured. I'm on VRC for the moment (I use it only for Shanwick, due to an oceanic program fuctionality) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opher Ben Peretz 882232 Posted November 23, 2007 at 07:42 PM Author Posted November 23, 2007 at 07:42 PM Daniel, I tried to connect using various servers but got disconnected after a few seconds. I reduced range due to more than 800 clients online but still no joy. I'll try VRC just to see what the source of the problem is. Edit: same situation on VRC. No probelm connecting to LLLL_CTR using same servers. Cannot relate it to ES, has to be the Vatsim network, possibly also related to my Slovak location although I get good pings. Have seen it before during heavy participation on EUC positions with 1500NM range, also from Israel and Scandinavian locations.

Daniel Doorgakant Posted November 23, 2007 at 08:01 PM Posted November 23, 2007 at 08:01 PM Yea, the 1500 was a problem with all those connected a few times as FSS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
