FSCargo Problem (Freight Dogs) Area not selected

Featured Replies

Hey guys im getting the hang of FS-Cargo love the addon but im having a problem

 

Firstly

 

1. I go into the VistaMare menu Selection within FS9

2.Then i select FSCargo

3. Then i select get new Assignment

4. I then select Generate until i see a departure selection for the airport im currently in (In this case Entrance Island Lake 2Z1) And an arrival or Destination to (CBM5 Telegraph Creek)

5. I then select Accept

6.) Once im done i see a pop up with the FSCargo Load and assignment window and the cargo to load in the scenery

 

The problem occurs when the window disapears, when it does i

1.) Select VistaMare once again from the FS9 menu

 

Here is whats displayed under the selection menu

 

A. Abort Assignment

B. Stop FSCargo

C. Assinment History

D. Toggle window on and off

E. List Areas

 

I then Select on Toggle window on/off to get the FSCargo Loading and Assinment window back up, Once the window Opens i get Area not selected?

 

So i then went into the List areas Selection under FScargo menu to see if the destination airport is there, and it is, has anyone encounter this problem before? Pictures below

In case anyone runs into the mentioned problem above i just found the solution, The problem was the entry data in the Scenery CFG it was set like so

 

 

[Area.189]

Title=FreightDogs landscape Tongass

Local=Aerosoft\Freight Dogs\FreightDogs landscape Tongass\scenery

Remote=

Active=TRUE

Required=FALSE

Layer=146

 

[Area.192]

Title=FreightDogs landscape Misty

Local=Aerosoft\Freight Dogs\FreightDogs landscape Misty\scenery

Remote=

Active=TRUE

Required=FALSE

Layer=147

 

I simply changed 192 to 190 and problem solved :rolleyes:

Shutting off the sim and restarting may have fixed your problem, changing the [Area.nn] had nothing to do with it.

 

That number is assigned by FS when you add a new scenery number and is simply an index, it has nothing to do with whether a scenery displays or not.

 

Glad you now have it working.
