I seem to have a problem getting my weather conditions and winds aloft to behave correctly. I set weather scenario to disabled, input my weather and winds aloft data using the weather conditions dialog, but weather does not behave as input. The problem is especially apparent with winds aloft data, which does not pick up the winds aloft data correctly, and in many cases not at all. I input various wind directions, speeds, temperatures, etc for different altitudes (3000-15000ft in this case), yet when I climb to those altitudes and check the environment and other data I can see they are completely incorrect and not being honored at all.
Entering the following for winds aloft for example: 15000ft -- 300 @ 16 12000ft -- 310 @ 14 9000ft -- 320 @ 12 6000ft -- 280 @ 10 3000ft -- 270 @ 9 I would expect if I am flying level at 12000ft for example, that I should encounter winds VERY close to 3...@14...yet I do not. Aloft layers seem to often not get picked up at all, or not picked up past the first or second aloft layer...becoming increasingly wrong the higher the altitude. Cruising at 12000ft example, changing the parameters for the 12000 layer has no effect at all, neither for surrounding layers 9000/15000...though sometimes changing the bottom layer (3000 in this case) does show immediate effect on aircraft...though the result is incorrect at 12000 obviously. I really don't see what I could be doing wrong, so one would have to think there is something very wrong in the environment code...? I get the same results in 2.0, cvs build (week or so before cvs death), and brand new up to date git builds. cheers! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
