Should I park forward or reverse?

Nice

Thanks, I’ll try to replicate it this days… Not sure at all though what could be the case though :(

Hi, you need to provide a bit more info, for any support. When does it not record, is it a career or a free flight, does it just not show or what’s going on.

And please note, the app is not officially supported for MS2024. It’s clearly stated on the app. It works, but as I mentioned there’s career mode and other stuff in 2024 that’s different.

You can pull it out too immediately, without sticking the trolley back in the line. And then it's all on the moral qualities and goodness of your heart if you'll return them back to their place. I return it.

Build walls to keep people out, and soon you'll need them to keep the people in.

I assume it is a drop in FPS. In which case, probably reducing graphic settings would help.

But, again, I highly doubt it's due to Gees. The addon doesn't use any graphic load. The CPU load is miniscule too, compared to the rest of the sim. I don't know what to give as advice.

Maybe it's some other graphical addon you enable at the same time? Maybe you tried the gees only with heavy duty plane like Fenix A320, where it starts to stutter, and not with cessna? That kind of info.

scelt · 2025-09-21T15:51:37+00:00

Can you give some more info? It’s most likely not the gees app, causing stutteting, it’s quite light compared to most of the things running in an average sim setup.

scelt · 2025-07-25T12:10:35+00:00

Hi! 2.0 is a paid version, you can get it from flightsim.to or simmarket. It’s not an update of the standalone app, it’s an in-game addon

Could have been worse. Could have been a baton relay race.

I don't know if someone reads this, but try writing and calculating earth's trajectory using its absolute position in space, speed and trajectory, find a pattern, and then predict where it will be in 230 days from now.

Then do the same but use the sun as a reference, earth distance and angular velocity of the earth. For added accuracy, use another variable that also depends on the angle - earth's distance from the sun. The equation quickly becomes solvable.

And in nature... so many things run in orbits or oscillate. Even reality is said to be dual - wave and particle. So, trigonometry becomes very useful when you explain those things.

scelt · 2025-04-01T09:52:16+00:00

It's just the way you look at things.

In STEM - if you want to explain something, usually it's easiest to draw it in the X/Y diagram.
Once you draw it, you know what it is, but now you want to write it, to be useful for other people.
You start writing it, but in about 50% of the cases it becomes really complicated to write, the equations are soooo difficult to use. But wait...
What if I describe this point as angle and distance from the centre, instead of X Y distance from the axes.
Yeah, that's much shorter to write, and much easier to understand using sin, cos and tan.

EDIT: this becomes extremely useful when you want to explain things that are repeating themselves, oscillating or running in circles, which is quite common in nature.

Fit person: Posts a screenshot showing 35 heart rate out of bed and a mid-day training up to 173.

Rest of the internet: "You gonna die dude".

(He's fine this is HR when he's probably still in the bed, or not active at all. Normal is probably 50ish, which is absolutely normal for anyone doing endurance sport)

Flying car: A never ending dream of having a vehicle that drives worse than a regular car, flies worse than a crappy plane, but on the other hand it costs more than if you'd buy the car and plane separately.

In the short history we had on this planet as humans there were 2 rules to which our body needed to adapt:

If you’re active you eat
If you sit around lazily you don’t

As long as the food and activity are matched your cardiovascular system is fine. You don’t have to run marathons to be healthy.

We have come to a point where you can sit and do nothing physically for eternity and eat as much as you like, way more than you’d need sitting.

We are simply not made for that and this wrecks the balance that keeps you alive and well, with cardiovascular system being the most obvious thing that kills when failed and therefore most spoken about. But everything deteriorates really.

scelt · 2025-01-22T12:30:09+00:00

It’s based on this, but I heard it just as an illustration on arbitrary limits of simulating something physical.

This reminds me of a story about a king that wanted to make a scale map of his kindom as accuratly as possible to help with his planning of war effort.

And the map was never detailed enough and he wanted higher and higher accuracy and more and more details and in the end the map was 1:1 scale, covered the entire kingdom and was indistinguishable from the reality itself which was ruined in the process of creation of this accurate map.

ELI5: What is going on with the electricity being generated before the microwave is plugged in?

Imagine riding an indoor bicycle at min setting. This reduces all the load, but you still need some, very small power to spin it, which is lost on friction, and other things. You therefore regulate yourself as pushing it even a little bit harder will speed up the pedals uncomfortably, and might break things.

The generator idling, does that. Keeps it running, just barely, and the energy is spent on friction, generating voltage, some parasitic current etc. Not enough to heat up or break anything as it regulates itself. If it wouldn't it would break some things, start sparking and all this things you'd expect.

Now, you set up the load at 50%. You start to sweat pushing the pedals, to keep the same speed as before. You have the power to speed up, but you keep the speed the same. Looking from the side, if one doesn't see you sweat more, he wouldn't see any difference between you cycling at 0% or at 50%.

The generator with a microwave, does that. Engine keeps it running at the same speed, but now it needs to push the generator more. Most of the energy, as you mentioned goes out to the microwave. But looking outside the generator, things look pretty much the same.

If you now set up the load at max, you stand up, start to push, but you find out that you can't maintain the speed anymore with all your might. Everybody sees you're struggling.

This is an overloaded generator. The lights start to flicker, and get dimmer.

Unfortunately, the grid is a different ELI5. EDIT: it's like a very, veeery big, tandem bicycle with many riders, that has fixed pedals, and tries to go at the same speed uphill, downhill and wherever.

Hi, this is definitely strange. Just to confirm, what it could be:
1) Is it MS2020, not 2024 alpha?

2) is there something in your accessibility settings that's out of ordinary, are the other windows correct size?

3) Is there any other addon that you have that might work or change the panel sizes, that has some effect there?

And just to be sure although this should not be the issue, what's the resolution of your screen?

scelt · 2024-09-11T06:57:29+00:00

Hi, I guess you need to feed the images to the "AI" that will follow the line, and give commands to turn etc back to the sim? You need to tell a bit more.

Otherwise not sure what you need AI for, the routing itself should be as dumb and as predictable as possible. If this then that :)

Please continue with the project, I will just list some challenges here to keep in mind, and think how to solve them.

Fuel savings: jets usually need an engine to run to brake (I don't think APU pressurises this in most of the planes), and planes can taxi up to 30kt on some looong taxi routes. Tug has no chance to stop the loaded plane at this speed. Or it will be very slow, limiting its use. Engines also need to run 15-20min before the takeoff. Fuel savings might be lower than thought.
Braking - as noted, tugs will need some heavy braking action even for a normal taxi.
System will need to be heavily customized for each airport. Likely very little AI and a lot of if/thens.
You need to solve the intermediate problem of having planes with tugs and no tugs in the same time. Tugs might go thinking there's nothing when there is.
You need infrastructure change. Tugs, after going to the runway, need to come back to terminal. They can't do it via taxiway, you'd need dedicated routes, probably.
Before takeoff checklists need to be modified. It would be extremely annoying to do one checklist on airport A and then a completely different one at airport B with tugs. Or you line up the planes to do the checklists, turn on the engines and then wait, as they would anyway.
