Hello Ron,
REGARDING: When told to get the weather for KMCO, Michele told me that the
weather couldn't be accessed at that time.
That simply indicates that the METAR data for KMCO was unavailable at that
time.
I just tried it and it worked fine. To wit....
You said, ’get weather for kilo mike charlie oscar’
Mike said, ’Weather for kilo, mike, charlie, oscar, one, six, five, three,
zulu. winds calm, visibility ten miles. scattered clouds at three thousand
eight hundred, broken clouds at two five thousand. Temperature 31. Dew
point 21. Altimeter three, zero, zero, eight.’
REGARDING: Ground told me to taxi to and I quote Golf X 9.
Regrettably you misunderstood Ground Operations. Gate Golf X 9 does not
exist. The gate number they instructed you to go to was gate Golf 8 9. I
just tried it and it works fine. When you have this kine of a problem, I
might suggest that in the future, you do some preliminary research by going
to the Flight Planner and look up the gate to make sure that it's a real
problem before reporting same. That would save me a considerable amount of
time. Thanks for you help in this regard.
REGARDING: Doors
This has been a lingering problem with your PC for well over a year. As I
have stated numerous times, I cannot replicate this problem. I completely
understand what is causing what is causing the problem.... the system is
attempting to close the doors of the ATC menu instead of FSX. In other
words, it is issuing close door commands to the wrong window. Before the
door operations are issued, the IYP application pulls the FSX window into
the foreground, but some other application (perhaps JAWS) is sending the
focus back to the ATC window. I will try to find a way around this problem
in the next version of IYP by taking a completely different approach.
REGARDING: Degrees
Thank you for the report about the way degrees are being presented in the
Navigation Reports. I will address this.
Regards,
Robert
