Hi.

I have been using Kacars free for about a year now and it's great! http://www.fsvintage...pvms/index.php/

I do have a question, on the live map everting is working fine, but the Distance/Time Remain does not work. Does the Distance/Time Remain only work for the paid version or is there somthing I need to do to get the Distance/Time Remain working?

Thank you for your time,

Kenny.

The distance remaining and time remaining are based on the lat/lng of the dep airport and arr airport. These should be populated even in the free version. They are populated by a calculation inside of the module. You should check for sites errors and ensure that the airports have the proper lat/lng.

From the module. Case liveupdate

$lat = str_replace(",", ".", $xml->liveupdate->latitude);
$lon = str_replace(",", ".", $xml->liveupdate->longitude);

# Get the distance remaining
$depapt = OperationsData::GetAirportInfo($xml->liveupdate->depICAO);
$arrapt = OperationsData::GetAirportInfo($xml->liveupdate->arrICAO);
$dist_remain = round(SchedulesData::distanceBetweenPoints(
$lat, $lon, $arrapt->lat, $arrapt->lng));

# Estimate the time remaining
if($xml->liveupdate->groundSpeed > 0)
{
 $Minutes = round($dist_remain / $xml->liveupdate->groundSpeed * 60);
 $time_remain = self::ConvertMinutes2Hours($Minutes);
}
else
{
 $time_remain = '00:00';
}
