How do the fake controllers work?

First off all thanks for an awesome product! I use Euroscope just for the fact that is has this wonderful ATC Training Simulator within it.

 

Here comes the question:

1. How do the fake controllers on the simulator hand-off to the trainee?

 

For example I have two fake controllers.

ICAO_TWR now has the aircraft tracked. The plane has taken off but here comes the problem. How does the fake TWR know it's time to hand off to APP(trainee).

Same with an inbound from ICAO_CTR to APP(trainee).

 

That's all I wanted to know. Thanks in advance and continue with this awesome program I love it!

There is a "hand-off" button beside each controller in the simulation window. The trainer should click that to initiate the hand off I believe. If training on your own, tick the "auto" box and if the sectors have been set up correctly, the hand-off's should be automatic.

 

I'm not sure of my facts here, but in the absence of any other input, I'd give that a go.

The timing is probably determined by the sectors, so if you want TWR to handoff to APP, you need to create a sector for TWR and TWR will (if auto is checked) handoff before the aircraft leaves its sector.

And these details are also set in the ESE-file, if I am not mistaking.
