Virtual Copilot ??

Postby Capt.Propwash » Tue May 11, 2010 8:59 pm

I see in the FS9.cfg:

[VirtualCopilot]
VirtualCopilotActive=1

what exactly does this do?  Is he/she supposed to do anything in particular like talk on the radio? mess with the autopilot?  Talk to the passengers? ????? I have had it set for some time now, but i have never seen a difference in the sim.   

Like, when you pass through FL100, is he/she supposed to say "Passing 10,000 Captain." "Passing Transition Altitude, Captain." ?????

That is the state of the 'Display flying tips' option in the Realism settings.

No voice, and no call outs. Just a text message that warns you of situations like your altimeter is wrong or low on fuel or improper mixture, your engine is loosing power.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

oh,.   I have "Display Flying Tips" disabled.  Maybe that is why he/she/it never says anything.  lol  [smiley=2vrolijk_08.gif]
