How to prevent GSX services from auto-activating

[JRBarrett]

At some point in the last month or so, after doing a live update, GSX services now activate automatically as soon as I spawn an aircraft at a gate. The fuel truck arrives (even though I did not request it), baggage carts position themselves etc. Previously, no GSX services would commence unless I specifically requested them through the menu.

How can I stop this from happening? I see no option under the setup menu for any kind of “automatic” activation of ground services.

This is using the Aerosoft CRJ Pro in P3D 4.5

I see no option under the setup menu for any kind of “automatic” activation of ground services.

Of course there is. In the Simulation tab of the GSX Settings, and it's called "Assistance Services auto-mode"

I found the setting. Even though it was un-checked, the auto services were happening upon spawning at a gate. As an experiment, I clicked it “on”, then un-checked again. I then exited the sim, re-started and the problem appears to be fixed.... no services are active until I call for them.

I do run live update on a regular basis...

You don't say which aircraft you use. Some call GSX automatically on their own, like Aerosoft Airbus, for example.

Alright, I believe the Aerosoft CRJ controls GSX on its own as well. Best ask Aerosoft, because each airplane might be a bit different.

I'm having this same issue whereby services are automatically called when I activate GSX / open the main GSX menu.
I'm using MSFS 2024, with the FBW A320 Neo, with the latest version of GSX.
I understand the "Assistance Services auto-mode", and have read what is written in the manual, but this check box / setting you talk about doesn't exist... (see attached image).

How do I disable this setting?

First of all, you may wish to post in the MSFS section if you haven't already. You posted this in a 5-year-old thread about the P3D product, so it will definitely get lost.
