question

Hello @CaptMatto

You will need to check the simvar of the Voltage that will need to drop and, based on it, set the Simvar controlling the connection between the two bus with the KEY_ELECTRICAL_BUS_TO_BUS_CONNECTION_TOGGLE event. Also use SIMVAR_BUS_CONNECTION_ON to check the current state of the connection.

Hope that help, best regards

Hello @Yoanito

Thanks for the above! However, when the Bus Tie is active, I need to ensure that the current is 'one-way' in the Bonanza Bus 1 boosts Bus 2, but not the other way round.

When I enable the Bus connection between the two, their voltages become the same. If the Bus is one-way (because there is a reverse current diode) then Bat/Bus 1 voltage should stay the same.

Hope that makes sense?

Hello @CaptMatto

It is making sense yes but unfortunately, what you're trying to make is not possible with the current iteration of the electrical system.

It also does not seem possible to simulate a resistive lead... or a battery's Internal Resistance.
I had hope that the "Battery Internal Resistance" would have been added by now, as a battery with no Internal resistance is a very poor and inaccurate simulation of a battery, and very much limits the simulation of any realistic electrical system with a Battery

Hello @N6722C

I double checked with the team.
This is still planned but development hasn't started yet.
So still no ETA but definitely not short term.

Sylvain
