Completed Flights Still Showing on Map

[LVA001]

Hello all!

I completed a flight today, submitted a PIREP just fine and closed the flight. The problem was that the Live Map was still showing the flight to be active a few hours after it was submitted. I thought starting a new flight would fix this issue, but it just replaced the old one after it was closed. I am using 000webhost as my hosting sight and kACARS_Free as my ACARS system and have had few issues before this. I was wondering how one, as soon as they close their flight, has their flight removed from the map.

Any help is appreciated!

Hello LVA001,

You can go into the local.config.php file located under the "core" folder of your website and edit how long to keep your info to display. Here is what to look for to change:

ACARS options
#  Minutes, flights to show on the ACARS
#  Default is 720 minutes (12 hours)
Config::Set('ACARS_LIVE_TIME', 30);
Config::Set('ACARS_DEBUG', false);

Set the

Config::Set('ACARS_LIVE_TIME', xx);

xx in minutes to change. I think you can set it to show for 01 minutes but won't swear to it. I have ours set to 30 minutes as you can see by the code posted.

Hope this helps.
