Gsx loading wrong fuel amount from Simbrief PMDG 777
« on: July 23, 2024, 08:49:53 pm »
GSX is loading the wrong fuel amount from Simbrief. It is loading TRIP+TAXI amount instead of Block Fuel.

Have the latest update.

Everything else seems to be working fine when using Jetway.

Checked it right now, and no, it sets Block fuel correctly, see here an example from a flight plan from LSZH to KLAX:

ZFW 208870

FSDT_GSX_SIMBRIEF_FUEL = 101537.0
PMDG_Handler setting FUEL Planned 101537 rounded up to 101700

So, because of the customary rounding explained in the manual ( +100 rounded to the next 100th ), block fuel 101537.0 got rounded up to 101700, and that's what I see being inserted in the CDU.
