I really enjoy the voice communications of VOXATC and feel like it makes it a lot more fun than other ATC addons, With that said, I'm encountering occasional issues on approach that make me consider discontinuing use of it, since the main purpose of any ATC addon has to be good air traffic control. It seems like one out of every 5 or 6 flights, something goes wrong on approach, either it vectors me for approach and then "forgets" about me and never brings me back in, or it hands me off to the approach frequency, which acknowledges me, and then never gives me any instructions at all. This can be fixed by stopping and restarting VOX, at which point it seems to figure out what is going on and bring me in, but it's really annoying when it happens.

 

I'm not sure what is causing it, and I was wondering if other people are encountering it, or if something is messed up on my side. These are all IFR flights, and I've seen it occur on ILS, VORDME, and pure visual approaches (less of an issue on visual since I'm bringing myself in anyway, but still). Like I said, it's not every flight, some flights it brings me in just fine, but it's an issue when I can't depend on it to regularly work.

 

I don't think I'm running any addons that should be messing with my flight plans. The only addon I can think of that would maybe have the potential to cause an issue would be the bridge to Ultimate Traffic 2, if the other AI airplanes are too much and the ATC AI is getting confused. But I wouldn't think it should do that.

 

It has some other kind of janky issues, like when I get in those airspaces where it keeps bouncing me back and forth between two controllers, but I can usually deal with that by letting the co-pilot take comms and not bothering with it until it resolves. But the inconsistent approaches really bug me. Any input is appreciated!

Hi there,

 

Have you got the latest airac cycle 1210 installed?

yes , I do get those issues with Vox every now and then.but you don't have to disable/enable Vox to snap out of this.

you could just re request the Approach (or a different one) via the VoxATC panel Menu (hitting "0"),

that should trigger them back to you again.

it has nothing to do with the Cycle rather it is installed or not as the problem happens after he gets the Approach path/assignment.

and besides, this is a pure VoxATC engine/code issue, not a lack of STAR/SID Info.
