Hi team!

Just to let you know that there's a small bug with the external model: If you extend the sun visors, they dont show up on the external view.

Nothing serious but just wanted to let you know.

How odd, given that both the interior and exterior use the same parts. In fact the only difference is supposed to be just the two pilot models. <sigh>

Oh, they are actually there but the exterior glass is blocking them from being visible due to a z-bias issue. I'll have to see if there's anyway to have them drawn last and be seen. I note that the handles (which aren't semi-transparent) can be seen, just not the plexiglass visors.

Did you managed to reproduce it?

Yes, see my edited reply ^above^...

Ahh! didnt saw it

Seems like an interesting bug to chase.

Btw, i dont know if this is something that i should request to you but... Is it possible to make the power/condition levers behave as they do on the majestic q400? Like: Click and hold a lever with the left mouse button to move both levers at the same time, and click and hold with the right button just to move one?

Are you open to this idea?

There's no need to do such since I've already provided for similar behavior
All of the levers have their own mouse points with a tooltip to show percentage
Every pair of levers have mouse point between them for BOTH levers, the tooltip will display "Both" and give the percentage.

I wasnt aware of that, mainly because i always disable the tooltips.

thanks for showing me this. I wasnt aware.

Btw, the displays on the passenger cabin dont show up anymore. They are there but only the table comes out, not the display.

Internal model small bug: The table folds from below not from above as it should be.

The LCD Displays don't open with the tables. Click on the cover of the LCD Displays to pop 'em up/down.

Noted. I will fix them in the Max file in case there's another update down the road.

EDIT 1: In Max the tables are unfolding correctly, but not in the sim!
EDIT 2: I've got them fixed. Added a key half-way during the folding so the sim could calculate which direction to move! Thanks for the report.
