QNH setting
Hi,
I encounter a small problem, the setting of the QNH of the terrain, gived by the ATIS does not correspont with the airport altitude
This morning at LFBP QNH: 1019, terrain altitude: 617', with this setting, the tape altitude on PFD give 630'
Regards

Re: QNH setting
If you use tooltips, you'll see the actual set QNH differs by 1hpa to what's displayed on the altimeters. I think I saw this mentioned as noted for the upcoming SP somewhere.

Re: QNH setting
It's not a left-right difference that is the problem, if you press B to use the FSX/P3D "set local qnh" function, the screens display a hPa that is 1 off of what is reported at the airport. The sim tooltips shows you what the actual current pressure setting is, 1hPa off of whatever the displays show. This is not a feature, this is a bug, no matter the intent.

I checked the code and found that HPA baro reading was incorrectly rounded. Now it is fixed.
Thanks!
