Weird TOD in 2.5.0.3

Hi Dave,

   Was flying from KLGB to KLAS (see attached screen of p2atc setup).  The TOD looks like it was calculated incorrectly for some reason.  You can see it put the TOD almost at the approach start.

The screenshot definitely looks wrong.  I'll work on it to see what's gone wrong.

Thanks,

Joe,

When I enter KLGB, KLAS and then press AutoPlan, I get the SID and Approach, no STAR.  I then added the KEPEC6 STAR with the MISEN transition and get a route much like yours.  However, the TOD is properly placed about 195 NM before destination, right before HEC.

What process are you following to get the bizarre result you have in the picture?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi,

   I didn't use the auto plan.  I entered as follows:

1) Enter KLGB way point (manually)
2) Enter KLAS way point (manually)
3) Click SID button, selected Runway 30, ZOOM1 with MISEN trasition
4) Click STAR button, selected KEPEC6 with MISEN transition
5) Click APPR button, selected 01L ILS with Vectors to CODNO
6) Selected cruise altitude 270
7) Filed flight plan

(Ground speed 450 and Descent 1200FPM were auto populated from previous flight)

BTW, i just repeated those exact steps and got the exact same TOD right before the approach.

The problem starts when i select the STAR.  After selecting the star (before selecting the approach), the TOD is right at the last star waypoint.

Btw, there appears to be another small bug while you're in there looking at this...just saw this by accident.

It appears that if you add a way point, and then delete it, and then add another waypoint, it adds the new waypoint, but also re-adds the one you deleted.

Steps:
- Launch app

- add waypoint KJFK

- click on icon left side of jfk and click Remove in the window

- add back waypoint KJFK

- add waypoint KROC

- now in the waypoint list, you have KJFK, KROC, KJFK.

Reproducible, so should be easy to find.

Mihalich, for what is worth I tried your KLGB, KLAS flightplan and got the same result as dave.It all works ok here.

[Dave-Pilot2ATC 864]

OK.  I fixed both issues.  They only crop up if things are done in a specific order, but now they should both be fixed.

On the KLGB-KLAS issue, it was because there were not en-route waypoints and the last SID Wpt was the same as the first STAR Wpt.  Avoiding this situation should be a good work-around.

On the Add/Remove problem, using the "X" Wpt button instead of the Remove option is a workaround.

Joe, thanks for the detailed steps to reproduce the problem!

Will be in the next update.

Nice, thanks.
