GSX implementation inconsistent

Featured Replies

Now that I've flown this plane a few times, I've noticed that GSX can be very unreliable - sometimes it will load fuel, sometimes not, and I'm not sure either if it's supposed to load passengers itself, but it sure doesn't seem like it right now - even though I have all GSX options set to Auto. I know a lot of things have changed with GSX lately, but I think it would be prudent to have a look and see if there are any issues that need to be resolved.

Just tried another flight right now - after choosing "import all from Simbrief" and then "Load with GSX", the fuel truck never comes, so the plane just sits there at the default 8000 kg, doing nothing. Passengers can be heard boarding, but they are greeted with the default US English boarding calls from the flight attendant (I'm using one of the SWR liveries from the ini Manager app, so they should be using a German accent), and the payload value remains at 0 as well.

Once all passengers are on board, the payload level still shows 0. I have to manually choose "Instant Load Payload" to update the number from 0 to whatever it needs to be.

For instance: 0 passengers in PLD field for the LIVE category, even though I was just told they were all on board.

Then, after clicking "Instant load payload", viola, they instantly load and the Live number updates

There is another severe issue with GSX: after pushback is complete and the brakes are set, the plane will gradually slide across the ground until it hits an obstacle. I've observed this twice now at MK Studios LSZH.

Started a new flight just now and confirmed - after choosing "Import all from Simbrief" and then "Load with GSX", the GSX menu still wants me to manually request refueling, even though that option is set to Auto in the EFB.

And even after that, it takes forever for the fuel truck to show up.

Actually, in this last case, the fuel truck never showed up, so I had to use the instant fuel load option.

Same problem still today with refueling - "refueling service requested" is shown on the GSX menu, but the fuel truck never comes.

There is another serious problem at LSZH by MK Studios: whenever GSX thinks pushback is complete, it will randomly continue pushing the plane across the taxiway. You have to forcibly abort the pushback process to stop the plane from randomly slewing across the apron

One more for the GSX issues: when approaching a jetway to park, the jetway starts moving towards the plane before the player has even had a chance to park. What's more, this triggers the front door to open, even though the jetway usually attaches to one farther down the aircraft, not the one directly behind the flight deck. This always triggers an ECAM warning.
