APU not starting

[RADEON]

1.0.4, apu not starting despite both APU Master and APU Start is on, and fuel in tank is 15.9T

Hi

The fuel you see in the loadsheet is the fuel that you plan to have until you press set fuel, which then fills the tank.

If you see on the system display, below the APU info, you can find different info. Last to the right contains Ground Weight (GW); GW center of gravity (GWCG) and Fuel On Board (FOB) which in your case is displayed as 0 kg, so it means you don't have any fuel loaded.

So basically after you import your ZFW and Fuel from simbrief or you insert it manually remember to press set ZFW and set Fuel next to their number to transfer your plan to the aircraft.

Well, not really. The only thing missing is that OP can not start the APU as there is no fuel on board the aircraft.

Yes, I didn't include in my post why I explained how to load fuel. The reason why APU didn't start is because FOB so fuel on board is 0 kg in the aircraft. Basically APU is fuel starved and won't start until you load fuel.

It was only set on the loadsheet page of the OIS.

I did, but it didn't work, in fact the reason why is it at zero instead of the stock spawn 24T is that once I click the set fuel, it only draws out all fuel but can't load fuel.

Could I have some more details please. MSFS20/24? What variant? Does this problem happen every flight?

MSFS2020, it seems like so after 1.0.4, A359. I will do more testings, but it seems like so for all flights today, whether I press restart on the esc menu, I homepage then start a flight, or quitting msfs and reluanching it.

Okay, I will forward onto the team.
