Pete Dowson Posted June 14, 2021 Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 1 minute ago, Mugz said: - MSFS2020 -> Select airborne departure -> Press FLY -> start FSUIPC (data will be incorrect). Before FSUIPC receives ANY data from Sim all of the offsets populated by SimVars will be zero. FSUIPC doesn't invent any of these values! Try using the Offsets facility in FSUIPC's logging in order to show the values in the log as they change. This will not only show the offset itself but also the actual value read from SimConnect. It sounds like SimConnect is first sending the default (on ground) value when initialised, but this additional logging will show. you'll need to set this logging option in one session so it starts off enabled in the next. FSUIPC can only pass on what it gets. it may change to scaled value, to maintain compatibility with past FS versions, but it doesn't do any real state changes on its own.

Pete It will be great if you tell me how to do this. All what i can (and know) now - read offset data and print to log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mugz Posted June 14, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2021 Seems initial offset state loaded from FLT file, not from SimVar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, those offsets are only populated from simvars received via SimConnect. I can reproduce this issue now but do not understand it. I will look into it and get back to you. It also looks like FSUIPC7 isn't auto-starting luas when FSUIPC7 is started and MSFS is running but in a paused state. I will also look into this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have found the issue. The problem is that before writing the received value to the gear position offsets, FSUIPC is checking offset 060C, the IS GEAR RETRACTABLE offset. This is 0 (i.e. still unpopulated) when the gear position is received, so FSUIPC is setting the gear position offsets to 16383. I will fix this and post you a new version to check either later today or more likely tomorrow morning. I have also found an issue with luas not starting when you start FSUIPC7 and MSFS is already running but in a paused state. This will also be corrected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This verrsion correctly reset event.terminate Yes, I removed a flag which was set to only call the event/terminate once. So I can close/lock this topic now, no? We should investigate the FSUIPC7 crash, but can you raise a new topic for this please. I'll comment on the event.terminate on the other topic you raised for this.
