COM1 ACTIVE

[ATC Roo]

As I've mentioned on other forums I've been testing JOINFS and the default radar.

Works great for us budding controllers.

Joinfs sends the clients squawk so that shows on radar.
Is it possible for the ACTIVE COM1 and GPS DESTINATION to be sent too?

This would then show in the default radar like the squawk does.

If GPS destination was sent that would enable the Flight Plan section to display where the aircraft is heading, which in default multiplayer it does not (something Microsoft never finished).

I've also noticed only the aircraft reg is sent.

Could ATC ID be sent to show those aircraft using Callsigns?

Hi,

Yes, I should be able to set some more avionics data like COM1. That looks possible.
Not sure about GPS, but I think I can set waypoints, which might show up as GPS waypoints.

The ATC ID is interesting, I don't think I'm actually setting this at the moment. I thought it was the same as the Tail number which I use to set the callsign. There's also another way of creating aircraft specifically with ATC information so I shall do some experimenting with all of this.

Thanks,
Peter

I've used ATC ID in one of my Plugins in the past.

I maybe wrong as it was a while ago but..

If ATC ID is set and no callsign is set, it will send the reg
displaying the reg on radar.
If ATC ID is set and a callsign is set, it will send the callsign and reg displaying the callsign on radar.
