FS Local Time


Recommended Posts

Dear Mr. Dowson,

While I was working on your VB sample code, I realised something.

When I first start FS, it's local time is the same time that I see in task bar of XP. But When I Pause the flight for 10 mintues, FS Local time is beeing delay for the length of Pause ( in this situatin 10 min. delay occurs ). FS does not update its' local time after the pause.

Is this a normal thing or a bug of FS ?

Regards,

Sorry, I do not know any VB. In the FSUIPC SDK the only examples which are mine are those in C.

When you pause FS, its time stops. This has always been the case. How else could it be? What does "pause" mean otherwise? If it doesn't stop time then aircraft should still fly or fall, whatever.

When you speed FS's sim rate up, time flows faster, when you slow it down it flows slower. When you pause it, it stops. Of course. I really don't understand why you'd expect otherwise?
