Zooming in and and windowed mode reduce engine outpit

Version: SU5
Frequency: Consistently
Severity: High
Marketplace package name: COWS DA42/DA40
Context: Unable to set manifold pressure in SU4 - #57 by MrTommymxr

As the title,
When zooming in past 0.8, the power output of reduces ~5%. The same happens when running FS24 in windowed mode.

Can we please get a “manifold pressure time constant”?

hey @MrTommymxr
Possible you have a gauge with custom logic the is attached to a 3D node that gets culled / LODed out?

Yes its in the external xml. But the code is running fine.

Hello,

I tried your Marketplace version, but I don’t think it’s exactly the same as in your video, as I don’t have any ACTUAL POWER OUTPUT L:var.
I have FADEC ACTUAL POWER, but it appears to remain constant and not the sames values as in your video.

You can send us your package via PM (see section 3) How to report a bug or a crash)

I just checked and these vars are present in V1.2.8. You can also look A:ENG TORQUE.

I reported this last year.
Again, im asking for a manifold pressure time constant so I don’t have to fight the game and all these random behaviours.

I have an older version (not sure why).
Any chance you could provide us with the 1.2.8 please ?

Sorry i was busy.

The latest version of our plane was submitted to marketplace. You can grab it from there.

Hi @MrTommymxr

I tested your aircraft in version 1.2.8 in SU7 flighting 1.9.13.0 and captured several A:ENG TORQUE values under both conditions (zoom 31% and 81%).

The largest difference I observed was 0.21%, so I can’t reproduce the behavior you described.

Can you test again in SU7 flighting and report back ?

Yeah its better. Weirdly zooming out now drops the power ~1%. Still not perfect but better than the 5% drop from before

Ok,
I will have this reviewed and get back to you when I have some news to share.
