Just wondering why I never show up on the map of active flights. Is there something i have to setup on my side?

Hello Paul,

This is due to your Windows Settings for number handling. If set to European separator "," (comma) rather than the US separator "." (period or decimal point), the database won't accept it and it won't display. I had thought that I fixed that with an added international library in SPAACARS, but obviously it didn't work for position reporting. I've made some server-side changes to correct incoming PIREP reports for this error by changing the comma to a decimal point upon upload, but haven't done so with the Position Report file. By changing your international settings in windows to use decimal point period rather than comma, you should start seeing your active flights.

John I stil do my online banking on this system, my new FS System is still being built at the moment. The banking system here will only accept commas when entering amounts and refuses to accept the decimal point. Silly thing I know, but until my new system is built I think I'll need to leave it as is for the meantime. Thanks anyway :)

I understand Paul, It's on my to-do list to recode that section so that it no longer does this. You're the second pilot to have this issue recently.
