[SU15] Why does the point.n extendtime, retracttime affect the suspension

[MSFS 2020] Bug Reports Aircraft
1

Version: *SU15 - 1.37.17.0

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: Low

Context: using the project template for piston aircraft.

Bug description: If you set the point.n extendtime and retract time to zero - I get this back an forth sideways motion in the aircraft - seems to be due to the engine. if I set the params to 5 (second) the left and right movement becomes and more rapid vibration.

Repro steps:
SSet params in point.N for ceter, left right gear to zero and back to 5 - notice the strange behavior

Hello @DA40CGDFQ

Are the gear position and extension/retraction time the only things you have changed?

Starting from the piston template and making the changes you suggested didn’t produce the same behavior for me.
I have slight oscillations likely due to how the engine vibrations are dampened by the gear but nothing on the scale you demonstrated and with no influence of the extension/retraction time parameters so far.

Regards,
Sylvain

Testing this just now - the issue is no longer present in 1.37.19.0

Bug can be closed.
