PaintSplasher Posted October 3, 2018 Report Share Posted October 3, 2018 Hey, I am not sure if this a smartCARS2 issue or a phpvms 5.5 one. But I need a point where I can start to find a solution I have set up everything to "feet", "nm" and "kilogramms". If a pilot sent a pirep via smartCARS2, the fuel used are totally incorrect. Here some facts: local.config.php of phpvms 5.5: As you can see below, we've all set to "kg". Config::Set('MONEY_UNIT', '€'); Config::Set('WeightUnit', '0'); # 0=Kg 1=lbs Config::Set('DistanceUnit', '2'); # 0=KM 1= Miles 2=NMiles Config::Set('SpeedUnit', '1'); # 0=Km/H 1=Kts Config::Set('AltUnit', '1'); # 0=Meter 1=Feet Config::Set('LiquidUnit', '2'); # 0=liter 1=gal 2=kg 3=lbs Config::Set('WelcomeMessage', 'Virtual Cargo International - ACARS'); # Welcome Message Config::Set('FUEL_DEFAULT_PRICE', 0.63); Our smartCARS2 is also set to "kg": Here an actually flight(PIREP) that was sent by one of our pilots: smartCARS version 2.1.31.0, 2018-10-2 UTC [08:37:23] Preflight started, flying offline [08:37:23] Flying PMDG 747-46NERF AirBridgeCargo Airlines VP-BIG [08:59:46] Flaps set to position 3 [08:59:55] Pushing back with 65905 kg of fuel [08:59:58] Engine 3 is on [08:59:58] Engine 4 is on [09:01:20] Engine 1 is on [09:01:20] Engine 2 is on [09:03:11] Taxiing to runway [09:08:00] Taking off [09:08:25] Climbing, pitch: 11, roll: level, 165 kts [09:08:33] Gear lever raised at 273 ft at 183 kts [09:08:53] Flaps set to position 2 at 1329 ft at 189 kts [09:09:07] Flaps set to position 1 at 2002 ft at 198 kts [09:09:22] Flaps set to position 0 at 2522 ft at 218 kts [09:19:51] Sim paused [09:20:30] Sim unpaused [09:21:59] Cruising at 33000ft, pitch: 2, 513 kts [09:52:18] Simulator connection reestablished, 3 from before [09:52:45] Sim paused [09:52:46] Sim unpaused [12:48:41] Descending [13:10:37] Approaching [13:14:14] Flaps set to position 1 at 3449 ft at 231 kts [13:16:19] Flaps set to position 2 at 2521 ft at 207 kts [13:16:32] Flaps set to position 3 at 2422 ft at 191 kts [13:17:58] Flaps set to position 4 at 2161 ft at 178 kts [13:17:59] Gear lever lowered at 2158 ft at 177 kts [13:19:14] Flaps set to position 5 at 1926 ft at 163 kts [13:19:21] Final approach, 157 kts [13:20:18] Flaps set to position 6 at 1763 ft at 158 kts [13:23:04] Touched down at -89 fpm, gear lever: down, pitch: 2, roll: 2 degrees left, 136 kts [13:23:38] Landed in 4344 ft, fuel: 17324 kg, weight: 256913 kg [13:23:38] Taxiing to gate [13:23:53] The flight may now be ended [13:23:53] Taxi time was less than 15 seconds [13:23:53] Arrived, flight duration: 04:07 And now how the PIREP come into our system: As you can notice, from pushback to the landing phase he burned 48581kg of fuel. At the admin center fuel used shows us 107122kg. And with a little bit of math, the 107122 are lbs not kg. (107122 * 0,453592 = 48589) Why the fuel used comes still in lbs, although anything is setup to kg? Thank you in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
