Various AoA items

[jaguara5]

1. The AoA warning horn should be activated at 15degr. when the change rate is above 10degr/sec. In game it's activated always at 17AoA . Also the frequency increases between 15 and 17degr.

2. The incidence test switch should check the warning tape and command the respective horn. WIP i guess. 

3. Also the potentiometer at the top of the indicator seems not to be working. 

EDIT - there are 2 more switches related to the lighting of the AoA instrument . 

Miscellaneous instrument lighting switch Allows lighting of the AOA indicator tape AOA indicator lighting rheostat AOA indicator colored lights. (s. page 51 of the game manual).  I think they sould checked with the SME for correct functionality,  not sure if they are working as they should

Hello Jaguara,

Thank you for your feedback, a couple of things to comment.

1. The anticipation does not exist in the Spanish F1s, the paragraph about the anticipation is completely absent from the manuals we use and this has been confirmed by an SME.

2. The test switch does work, but it is too slow. The correction will be available to the public soon.

3. The lighted ranges brightness can indeed be adjusted by the rheostat in the instrument, and the miscellaneous instrument rheostat controls the brightness of the indicator tape, as it should.

Thx! Good to have comments from the devs / testers. We have plenty of question. Keep going

After little testing, it seems that the clock hasn't a lighting function and the   MISCELLANEOUS INSTRUMENT LIGHTING SWITCH doesn't have an effect on this (as it should per Aerges manual).

It seems to have, if you turn up the map-light. Not sure if that's what it's supposed to look like, though, as the clock-face is illuminated in dim white light (probably just stray light) and iId expect it to be red/ orange as the rest of the indications.

Hi again,

First of all, the switch allows you to decide if the rheostat only controls the brightness of the AoA number band or also the emergency compass and the G-meter. The clock is illuminated by one of the map lights.

About the comments from devs and other questions, we try to always take a look and we take into account all reports that are posted here. Some, like this one are easy to check and, if needed, correct. Other topics might be more complex and require more testing/questions to SMEs and further investigation or development and we prefer to not comment anything until we have a clear picture. As always, videos and tracks are very welcome whenever an issue is being reported and help facilitate our job.

That makes sense, and indeed it's working   that way in the game. So it's  not  a bug but rather a  flight manual wip stuff (page. 51 must clarify this, it's little confusing).
