Jester troubleshoot

[Dannyvandelft]

I have random failures on for added fun, and the other day I had an INS computer failure, which obviously is Jester's department. But he said nothing, or tried to work the problem.

 

Is there a menu option to tell him to work the problem? Like how a real RIO might reset a circuit breaker, or do an in flight alignment?

 

If there's not, can we get one?

It sounds like a lot of work for little gain.

For instance, every time you have a discrepancy between vC and vM, you may end up with Jester raising the issue. Problem is, it can happen quite frequently and often the problem is fixed from the front seat (AHRS). Jester doesn't have the capability of understanding when something is appropriate to the moment. The Devs can make it more aware in this sense, but it's a lot of work for something that is either very common (and you fix it yourself post CV departure, right?) or quite rare.

Also, the WCS switches automatically to other modes if something critical fails (IIRC). At that point, the best course of action is probably RTB, and you can use NAVAIDS or the NS 430 for that purpose.

This was requested many times. Let's see what Jester 2.0 brings.
