EngineDriven fuel pump switch

Observing Ferry Tank for the Cessna 172: Extra 155 Gallon Fuel Tank - MSFS Add-on - Flightsim.to

I noticed that my fuel system has a problem when loading a flight on the runway. Looking at the fuel debug window the fuelpump “switch” is off when starting on the runway. There is no modeled switch, I just want the pump to work whenever the engine is on.

Weirdly if I start the flight parked, this switch is on, which is what I’d like all the time.

Anybody have any idea of what is going on here?

Hi @EmergencyButter,

I would take a look at your apron.flt (cold and dark) and runway.flt (runway start) files. You will want to ensure that the pumps are set to on (i.e. something like Pump.1 = 1) in the [FuelSystem.0] section of the file. You can see the parameters here in the SDK documentation: FLT File Properties

Hope that helps,
Matt
