Hi,

I would like to know :

- if fs-atc-chatter know in real time aircraft position and play LiveATC mp3 corresponding with this position

- if selection of frequency in nearest facilities can change the frequency in the aircraft (I use COM2 to know ATIS of my arrival Airport)

Thx (MSFS, a32nx)

FS-ATC-Chatter is aware of your position and knows if your tuned frequency has a facility in range and will choose the right type of controller (tower, ground, approach, etc). However, it selects clips based on the Region you selected and those clips are not likely to be from the airport you are near.

FS-ATC-Chatter can tune the selected radio to any frequency you select from the nearest frequency list. You do need to have the right radio selected and for most users, this defaults to the radio you have as the transmitter. You can change it using the COM1 / COM2 radio buttons at the top of the control panel.

Hi, thank you for your answer. What is the size / radius of the "region" for wich the audio is played ?

When I select ATIS of destination airport, the frequency appears very shortly in the cockpit but desappears to be replaced by previous used frequency.

It's not very important because ATIS is readed correctly by ATC

The regions generally follow the regions outlined in the international feeds on LiveATC.net.

The radio getting switched back might be caused by MSFS automatically tuning the radios for you.

Hi, Ok => regions = continent : it's mean than an audio recorded from LiveATC.net in german airport can be played when you are flying in France ?

Yes, in the next release of the player, we will enhance it so that it knows what country the clip came from. The X-Plane X-ATC-Chatter player already does this, but we need to add it to the FS-ATC-Chatter player. That said, you need to realize that we don't have clips for all of the counties. You can look at the CSV file, ClipTags.csv, in the Regions folder of the FS-ATC-Chatter root folder to see what countries we have clips from.

Thx, I hope that it will possible for you to play the clip corresponding with the position / country of the flight

In the next version, it will be possible to select the country and airport ICAO, but it is essential to remember that, although we have a large number of clips, not all countries have clips available. If you look in the FS-ATC-Chatter\Regions folder, you will find a ClipTags.csv file that lists the ICAO and Country for all the clips.
