[2.9.21.16552] Active pause causes cell 1 fuel to drop to 850 lbs

[Stickler]

As per the attached track, using active pause causes the fuel in cell 1 to reduce spontaneously to 850 lbs and prevents cell 1 from being refilled from the remaining cells.

This fuel jump is indicated on the fuel totalizer when holding the Feed Tank Check Switch, but not in the EFB.

Once active pause is disengaged, cell 1 fuel content as indicated on the totalizer jumps back to 1416 lbs. If active pause is then again enabled, fuel in cell 1 reduces to 850 lbs once more, and so on.

If active pause is kept enabled for too long, the aircraft will eventually flame out due to fuel starvation in cell 1 even though the EFB continues to indicate a full cell 1.

Thanks for the track. Smells like you might have paused with Gs or some other kind of unusual force.
The EFB pulls the numbers straight from the internal object, so those numbers are definitely the truth.
Active Pause can be quite finicky to code though, so maybe some gremlins in the logic. Will have a look :)
