  1. I can confirm, I uninstalled and reinstalled and it still did it. Going to a "runway" start, I actually couldn't enable the mooring switch. So it seems to be stuck "on" in the cold start and stuck "off" in a hot start. Had similar on version 1.0 before the cold starts were fixed, certain engines (never the same one either, but one engine) couldn't be shut off because the mag switch would flip back to "both" when I tried shutting it off, the mix lever for that engine would "jump" back to its full rich position when I tried pulling it back, mixture axis didn't fix it, keybinds didn't fix it. It just seems like maybe another type of lVar issue? (EDIT: I initially tried this on the regular 314 and then I just tried again on the 314A and same issue, at least its not airframe specific!)
  2. Having a little trouble with this update, for some reason, The mooring switch will not disengage and allow me to taxi with a cold and dark start. I thought it was because I didn't uninstall the last version first but it's no good. Every time I switch the mooring switch it just flips back up, regardless of the panel state. (EDIT: I should add that when I say "panel state" I mean that even if the engines are running, shore and battery power are on/off, whatever, it doesn't let go) otherwise, works like a charm!
  3. Thank you for your hard work, I know bug squashing is never a fun thing to do!
  4. Thanks for checking! Understandable that the engines had to be flown "by feel" but, I'm not sure of the procedure to set up a proper fuel transfer, which I was hoping the manual would cover in more detail! As far as I can tell, It should be something like I was doing, which was, -Select which wing tank to refuel (usually set to port) -then, select which hydrostabilizer tank from the distribution wheel you want to pull fuel from, -then, turn on one (or both?) of the transfer pumps, which should then start pulling from the hydrostabilizer tank and feeding to the selected wing tank -cycle wing tanks and hydro tanks roughly every half hour depending on fuel burn and first pilot's wishes (EDIT: I also was able to hand pump the fuel from the hydro tanks using the method I described, once the wing tank had the fuel disintegrate I could see it getting filled via the hand pump at roughly 1 gallon/second, so I know that works at least) (Another edit: Selecting a hydro tank and hand pumping will also cause the fuel gauge to jump to zero)
  5. Hello! I've discovered a small issue with the fuel transfer system. I've been able to reproduce this problem in flight and on the ground idling. I have the fuel system set up as shown in the manual, (Port 1+2, 1+2, Starboard 3+4, 3+4, hydro set to off and wing refuel set to port) if I wish to transfer fuel from the Hydrostab tanks to the wings, I assume I must select a hydrostab tank from the distributor and turn on a transfer pump (or both pumps?) However when I do this, the wing tank corresponding to the Hydrostabilizer tank (EDIT: It corresponds to the Wing Refuel selected) immediately goes to zero gallons and within a few seconds the engines on that side starve out and die. (Hopefully) I've included a picture of the back wall and the tanks gauges. The only thing missing is the fuel transfer pump #1 being flipped on. The manual is a little foggy on the procedure to transfer fuel and the flight engineers checklist doesn't shed much light on it either. Did I perform the procedure incorrectly? Not that I think I did, as 600 gallons of fuel doesn't normally disappear instantly! (EDIT: I'm also a birdbrain for not including this is in P3D 4.5 with HF3)
