ATIS in FG is ok - but not in multiplayer mode with realtime radio. It's no problem to allow ATIS to be turned off. I haven't had a working self-compiled build since the OSG switch so can't look at the moment, but does fgfs --disable-atc exist, and if so does it disable the ATIS? If not, it could be made to, or an extra --disable-atis option could be added. What I originally assumed, was that when a real-time voice server became available, only some channels would be manned be real people (due to logistics) and that the server would communicate in some manner to each FG instance that connected to it which stations would be handled by the server and which would be handled by FG. Does that still sound reasonable, or am I misunderstanding what you've done? Cheers - Dave - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Jon, first of all: thanks for testing! There were some problems with the conference system and I fixed them yesterday (thanks Martin!).

You only need to make slightly changes to Flightgear. See the INSTALL file inside the distribution. I hope the package will not make much problems. NOTE: This is a prototype... not everything might be work as it should be. Give it a try and I will see what I can do for the next releases. If you have questions or want to help fix problems with this package please don't hesitate to contact me! http://squonk.abacab.org/dokuwiki/fg_sqawk There is still much to do: - eleminating the conference-call messages - the PTT-Key y is transmitted via the external protocol only every second, which is much to long for realtime conversation - Equalizer, that makes real radio sound (perhabs some noise in background :-) ) - ATC radio (with simple radar screen) - ...

Please consider the following comparisons: FACT ANALOGY Radio is a broadcast medium. Any broadcast is in some ways a type of conference.

Except as noted below, I cannot think of any reason why it would be necessary or in any way desirable to defeat the ATIS function. If there is a reason, please explain. The reason is that I would like to play ATIS trough the realtime-radio and not from FG. As I know the current multiplayer mode of FG is only a position repeater/broadcaster. But what with the other realistic things as weather and the time? I think it would be nice if someone can set the waether of the multiplayer-session and the time. Then he has also to generate the ATIS. And then it is a problem with the hard-coded ATIS from FG... Ok I am some steps in the future - sorry. The only reason to defeat the /internal/ ATIS function would be to replace it with a better ATIS function ... in which case you would need to deal with many, many ATIS frequencies, not just 118.85.
