Hi,

I am using UGCX and getting on well with it and enjoying it. Along with my previous suggestions - https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/560109-three-suggestions/ (understanding that the first item is solved) I have another couple please.

When given permission to start engines, after pushback, it would be good if one could say something like "Understood, clear to start engines" or similar. Currently if you do this you get a response "Go Ahead".  It does not seem right to not respond to this clearance.

Also, I think this has been requested already but, can we please have the option of a PTT button or key stroke so that UGCX can be set so it is not always listening? I have the soft key enabled but I use this to stop UGCX listening when I'm talking to ATC.

I realise development of 1.4 is well underway so this might be too late.

Thanks very much

Regards

Dave

Yes, the speech recognition engine is always listenning, and it may trigger commands that you didn't intend to say. This is fixed as per v1.4. The engine listens when you want to say something to it.

I can't say the complete list of new items we added (and fixed) to v1.4, but I can confirm this one is included in it. As on v1.3 and previous having the speech recognition engine to always listen to all what you say has came into many issues, so we decided to finally fix that.

It's almost completed, I'm just making some fixes here and there, while we wait for all voices from being completely recorded. There are more things we wanted to add but we left it for v1.5 as the development can't stay forever hahaha :)

Cheers,

Roll on V1.4, don't take too long though, I am not far off becoming a pensioner...………..
