Change Log:

V1.3 (March 22, 2018)

-FO's "Rotate!" call trigger speed fixed.

-Logic added to prevent users from accidentally starting the same engine twice.

-Logic for FO's control of cockpit and aircraft lighting improved based on time of day.

-Sound volumes adjusted for numerous recordings.

-Removed the passenger boarding sound. Some users who used non-default bit-rate setting in their audio settings reported an anomaly with this sound (dinosaur sounds to be exact :-). The sound itself was not the problem but rather than non default bit-rate. Regardless, you can't even hear this sound with the cockpit fans running, so I removed it.

-Trigger changed for the night lighting of the FS2Crew Panel. The brightness knob now needs to be up near the half way position for the FS2Crew lighting to activate.

-Cabin PA's fixed, and the volume of the Cabin PAs can now be changed instantly via the PA knob on the Captain's audio panel.

-When Hard/Soft mute active, green bar will no longer appear, even if sound is detected.

-New voice commands available:

Set XXX point XX on (Standby) Comm 1 / 2.

Set XXXX on the transponder.

Set XXX point XX on Nav 1 / 2.

-You can disable the CTRL key to be used for Soft Mute by doing this:

C:\Users\****YOUR USER NAME****\AppData\Roaming\FS2Crew2010\Versions\MadDogRB\SavedData\FS2CrewData.ini

Open FS2CrewData.ini with notepad.

Make the 0 and 1.

DisableCtrlMute=1

Then Save.

-The FO will now set ART to auto during his climb flow if a Flex takeoff was performed.

-FO's transponder handling updated.

-FO's handing of the Airfoil Anti Ice updated (Pneumatic x-feel valves will now close as appropriate).

-FO Chronometer handing during engine start fixed.

-For the Descent checklist, the system will now accept XXXX POUNDS / TONS/ KILOGRAMS for the fuel quantity check.

-FO will now set the Ignition to "Both" prior to engine start to put FS2Crew in line with MaddogX stock SOPs.

-Control of the Ignition knob is now delegated to the user in all other stages of flight. Remember ignition needs to go in if using anti-ice.

-For the EPR Bugs and TRP challenge in the Taxi Check, you can now also respond TAKEOFF AUTO or TAKEOFF FLEX OFF. Or, as appropriate, you can use a specific value. Example: FIVE FIVE DEGREES TAKEOFF FLEX.

-During the parking flow, the FO will leave the engine hydraulic pumps on (only Aux and Trans Pumps will be turned off.)

-Center fuel pump tanks will now remain off until after takeoff. After takeoff, if the tanks are not empty, the center fuel pumps will be turned back on.
