NEWS! - Toliss updates the Airbus A320 NEO to v1.1

 

ToLiSS UPDATE News! header A320NEO 1.1.jpg

 

Soon after a new ToLiss release, in this case the excellent Airbus A330 NEO. Then a lot of the features in that new release then filter down to the previously released aircraft. This is the v1.1 update for the A320 NEO.

 

There are a lot of new features in this update, covering; Hydraulic improvement package, MCDU improvement package, ECAM improvement package, FMGS (Flight Management and Guidance System) improvement package, New failure modes and a Visual improvement package. The full v1.1 changelog list is below...  You can use the Skunkcraft updater to update the ToLiss Airbus A30 NEO, quickly and easily to v1.1.

 

New features:
Hydraulic improvement package: 
. Added simulation of trapped hydraulic fluid in asymmetric actuators such as landing gear or spoiler actuators. 
. Fixed the PTU overheat when ENG1 is failed.
MCDU improvement package: 
. CLR command is now indented in scratchpad as in real life
. DIR TO page prefills the RADIAL IN on the DIR TO page as required
ECAM improvement package: 
. Overspeed warning now triggers based on actual flap/slat position and not lever position (PFD barber pole is still lever position driven as in real life.)
. Removed duplication of system titles if the same system shows multiple subsequent rows of ECAM messages.
. Weight display logic for SD: Prior to engine start, the dashes are now cyan. Weights now only show after engine start, like in real life.
. Status page improvement: Approach procedures for hydraulic faults
. Rework of the ECAM messages for electrical bus failures to represent a newer FWC standard
FMGS improvement package:
. Added possibility to use Airport ICAO codes as waypoints
. Bug fixes for the path computation leading to an overall much stabler path computation in complex procedures.
. Empty flight plan shows as PPOS / Discon rather than just "End of flpn" and can be built up from there.
. VIA selection is now automatic, if there is exactly one VIA that matches the selected FINAL and STAR.
. Constraints of first waypoint in STAR are not dropped anymore.
New failure modes: 
. Slow and rapid decompression
. THS jam.
. Cargo smoke, including latched closure of the isolation valves
. Added high lift failures, including loss of SFCC channels and slats/flaps lock
. Windshears with correct REAC W/S detection and indication.
Visual improvement package:
. Added AoA Vanes to fuselage model
. Fixed the tiller textures
. Animated the flap lever guard
. Correct the eye reference ball colors and location
. Fixed text overlaps on the overhead panel
- Added new Circuit breakers (for high lift, air conditioning packs, ...) bringing the total to 240
- Added pitch influence to the RADALT value, so that the RADALT decreases when you pitch up (like IRL)
- Added limitation with filtering to the maximum number of waypoints shown on ND when WPT overlay selected.
- Quick starts for engine and APU are now available on the Joystick/Actions tab.
- Mapped flight number to x-plane dataref "sim/cockpit2/radios/actuators/flight_id" for third party plugin interfacing.
- Improved Master Warning flashing frequency.
- Terrain on ND drawing around the airport is now inhibited for areas of same elevation as the airport.
 
Bug fixes:
- Fixed issue with the interaction between the CLR button and the status page
- Fixed issue with status page overflow.
- The emergency generator now consumes hydraulic fluid.
- The magnetic variation model now updates for the current year.
- Fixed FMA alignment of armed modes and issue with empty boxes
- Extended the permissible value range for FCU speed window to 399kts and Mach 0.99 like in real life
- Extended the permissible value range for FCU altitude window to 49000ft like in real life
- ISI startup correction: QNH is also visible during ISI startup; moved QNH to right location.
- Removed CHG CODE field for other phases than PREFLIGHT or DONE.
- Improved string termination on MCDU string datarefs.
- Fixed an issue with SID route in alternate plan on first alternate plan programming.
- Fixed an issue with waypoints preceded by a discon where the outgoing leg is of the CI/CD/CR/CA or VI/VR/VD type.
- Fixed FMA indication for managed descent on profile with significantly too slow speed.
- Fixed behaviour of the FCU HDG managed dot when a managed mode (NAV, LOC, APPR) is armed.
- Fixed shape of the ADF2 needle on the ND.
- Removed GS indication on ND, when the associated ADIRU is OFF or invalid.
- Made the deceleration when descending through the SPD LIM altitude smoother.
- Fixed issue with the beta target leading to excessive rudder deflection and spoiler extension on the wrong side.
- Lots of other bug fixes (too many to list here)
