v0.3.5

• Changed: Push-Back Monitoring decoupled from the Synch By-Pass Pin Option
  • Automatic answering of the 'Do you want to request Pushback' Question should now work (independent of that Option)
  • Confirming (or Stoping) Pushback with the INT/RAD Switch works independently now
• Fixed: Synch By-Pass Pin Option works again without Glitches (GSX 2.7.6 and above)
  • It is configurable through the GUI again
  • Since it still interacts with the GSX Pushback in an unintended Way, it defaults to being disabled
• Changed: included latest SDK Libraries

v0.3.4

ATTENTION
The Synchronize By-Pass Pin Option is disabled by default and it is recommended to leave it disabled for the Time being (it can only be enabled through Config-File now).
Leaving it on will cause Glitches with GSX 2.7.6 and above: Exagarated Raise & Fall at the Beginning, Plane can roll into the Tug when Brakes are not set right away.
This only happens on the Towbarless Tug: so if you really make sure that you only use the Towbar Tug, it is okay to enable that Option.
This is NOT a Fault of GSX! I was "misusing" one of the GSX Variables for that, because there was no other Way to get that working with the Fenix.

SUPPORT NOTICE
Effective with Version 0.3.4 Support will be extremely reduced to almost zero. Issues opened and Message/Pings on other Platforms will be ignored or closed in most Cases.
IF I find your Issue worthwhile and reported in an usable Manner (clear Description and Logs), I might look into it. But almost every Problem I deal with lately has something to do with weird Settings, broken Sim- or GSX-Setups or People just not reading anything I wrote.

Changelog

• Added: The Deboard Pop-Up in the EFB is now suppressed (the Flightphase will directly advance to 'Completed' when Engines are Off and Parking Brake Set).

• Removed: GPU and Chock Interception is no longer an Option. It is not needed anymore, GPU and Chocks will be placed as before by Fenix2GSX.

• Improved: The Detection for EFB Boarding/Loading (and the Resulting Skip of GSX Services) now also detects Fast and Real-Time options while they are running (and other Changes to protect User from theirself using two conflictive Features at the same Time).

• Added: Importing the next Flightplan on Turn-Around will trigger GSX to also reimport from SimBrief (allowing the VDGS to refresh with GSX >= 2.7.6)

• Added: Attempt to fix Situations when Fenix2GSX calls Deboard but GSX not recognizing the Request

• Bug-Fix: Operator Selection now really based on GSX Choice (forgot to actually use the Result of the Check 🤦‍♂️)

• Bug-Fix: Deboarding instantly finished (and Chocks not set) when Fenix2GSX was restarted in Flight

• Bug-Fix/Added: The ATD Time not set correctly by the EFB (will be set when Plane starts moving after Refuel/Boarding completed)

• "Bug-Fix": Another try to open the Left Aft Door on Stair-only Stands when GSX does not open it

• Bug-Fix: when switching Units for the Refuel Rate, the Rate Value would not be converted correctly (introduced with Number-Formating Changes in 0.3.3).

• Bug-Fix: Refuel Rate (and possibly other Input Fields) would be cut off on Systems with Text-Scaling >100%. (Issue #46)

• Added: for such Setups and gigantic Text-Scaling Values (where the Window gets bigger than the Desktop), there is also a new Config Parameter called "groupBoxConcealable". When "true" it allows to hide the Group-Boxes with a Right-Click.

• Change: The Default Value for the Passenger Randomization decreased to 2,5% per Seat.

• Added: Workaround for I-dont-know-who-or-what opening the Right Forward Door during Deboarding. It will be automatically closed when that happens.

• Added: A "Jetway Fixer" Function in the Hope to resolve disconnecting Jetways while De-/Boarding (only active while either Boarding or Deboarding is active). It is disabled by Default and can only be enabled via Config File because it needs long-term Testing. If you're an experienced Fenix2GSX User, you can enable it and report your Results!

• Changed: Included latest SDK Libraries

• Added and directly INOP: Calling Pushback through INT/RAD Switch now automatically Answers the 'Do you want to request Pushback' with 'Yes' (Does only work with the By-Pass Pin Option ... so it is best to not use that GSX Setting.)

v0.3.3

Please update GSX to 2.7.5 if you are on 2.7.4

• The Operator Selection now chooses the "GSX Choice"
• Reworked Pax Boarding / Deboarding Process
  • Does not assume getting correct Values from GSX / through SimConnect anymore
    • Should be more stable and prevent Situations where the Plane was not boarded as planned
    • Should now also work with Extreme Passenger Density
    • Because of that there can now be large Jumps in Pax Numbers, like from 0 to 60
    • Still relies that the Boarding is reported as finished
    • Does not assume a second Fuel Truck comming anymore if the Variable for the Fuel-Hose gets zero (before the Tanks where filled as planned)
    • Should help in certain Situations, but also means there can now be large Jumps (the Tanks are filled instantly to planned then)
  • Planned Passenger and Cargo (like Fuel already) can now be changed in the EFB when using Fenix2GSX
    • GSX will be configured to show the selected Number of Passenger
    • You need to change the Numbers before the Boarding Service is requested
    • Changes will only be applied when Boarding is requested by Fenix2GSX (either through Automation or INT/RAD Switch)
  • The Passenger Number is now randomized (enabled by Default, can be disabled in the GUI)
    • It is a X Percent Chance per every Seat that it will 'flip' from booked-to-free or free-to-booked (Chance configurable in the GUI)
    • The Planned Number in the EFB will stay the same, the Boarded Number will reflect the real Value (GSX will be configured to use the real Value)
    • When changing the Planned Number in the EFB directly, the Number will also be randomized
    • The loaded Cargo will also change acording to this (using the Fenix Default of 15kgs as Baggage Weight - customizable in Config-File)
    • The Final LS will show the correct live Values
    • Please Note that the "PLUS" in that Loadsheet is Infants on Board, not extra Passengers
  • Catering Service can now called either directly with Refuel or after Refuel
• Reworked Arrival Services
  • When Auto-Deboarding is configured, Fenix2GSX now does directly call the Deboard Service (Jetway/Stair will be moved by GSX itself)
    • Jetway/Stairs are still called automatically through Fenix2GSX if Auto-Deboarding is disabled and automatic Jetway/Stair Operation is enabled
    • Deboarding can be called through INT/RAD Switch when Auto-Deboarding is disabled
  • Timings on the GPU/Chock Placement changed (when GPU/Chock Interception is not disabled in the Config-File)
    • Chocks will come 10-20 Seconds after Beacon off (Delay min/max customizable in the Config-File)
    • When the Chocks where placed, the MECH Indicator will flash up briefly on both ACPs
    • GPU/PCA will come 10 Seconds after L1 (left forward) Door was opened and Chocks where placed (min Chock Delay)
  • Workaround for GSX not opening L2 (left aft) Door on Stair-only Stand
  • Besides that Workaround, no other Arrival/Deboarding Services relie anymore on the operating State of Jetway or Stairs (which should improve Reliability)
• Removal of Aft Stairs (on Jetway Stand) now checks if the Stairs where not already removed
• Decimal Values in the GUI are now formatted in accordance to the System Settings
• Allowed more Parts of the GUI to scale with Content, hopefully fixing certain Setups with specific Resolution/Text Size Settings

v0.3.2

• Aft Stairs (if available) are removed on Jetway Stands after Boarding was finished (can be disabled through config File)
• The automatic placed GPU and Chocks on Arrival are now intercepted and removed (can be disabled through config File)
  • Both will be placed after Jetway/Stairs are connected and therefore only after the Beacon was switched off
  • NOTE: The GPU and Chocks referred here are the ones placed by the Fenix itself after Engine Shutdown (ignoring the Beacon). This Change removes/intercepts them, so that Fenix2GSX can correctly place them when Jetway/Stairs are connected (so some Time after the Beacon was shut off)
• Fix to INT/RAD Switch not able to call Deboard after Jetway/Stairs where connected (in case Automatic Deboarding is disabled) (#39)
• Implemented Detection if the Plane was loaded through EFB (to skip GSX Refuel/Boarding)
• Application now shows current Version in the Window Title (#41)
• Application will check for new Versions on Startup (#38)
  • Indication is through a different SysTray Icon and a Text-Message in the GUI.
  • There is no Pop-Up and there will never be (so don't ask) 😜
• Changed Version Scheme, got rid of this RC mumbo-jumbo 😅

v0.3.1-RC19

• Cabin Ding when Initialization is done (Reposition, Jetway/Stairs, EFB) and when Final LS was send
  • Please wait with powering up the Plane or importing a Flightplan in the EFB until you hear the Ding!
• During (Session) Start-Up the EFB is now reset in a different Way (still to fix ADC Issues through Reposition and to fix 120 Pax boarded)
• Implemented "Work-Around" to Fenix Bug-or-Feature of PrelimLS not being available when FP was imported when Plane was still cold&dark or still being in self-test/power-up.
• PrelimLS will also be triggered if EOBT is greater than 30 Minutes away
• Default Value for Reposition Delay lowered to 1.5s

v0.3.1-RC18

• Fixing Log Messages again -.-
• Command-Line Switch to set Working Directory

v0.3.1-RC17

• Fix for Verbose Message for Issue #27
• Some Jetway/Stairs Debug Code
• Another Try to set the Working Directory

v0.3.1-RC16

• Trying to set the Working Directory
• Dinging the Cabin (pressing ALL Call Button) when Final is received (untested)
• Additional Verbose Log Messages
• Updated CEF Library

v0.3.1-RC15

• Maybe finally fixed the Crew De/Boarding Option to actually work 😅
• Changed Timings/Execution Order on the FinalLS
  • Delay/Countdown now starts when GSX Boarding is reported as completed (instead of Pax & Cargo completely loaded)
  • The Automatic-Door Close now happens after the FinalLS was transmitted (instead of transmission started)
• The Minimum and Maximum Delay for the FinalLS can now be configured in the .config File

v0.3.1-RC14

• Fix for ADC-Issue (#21) due to GSX Reposition. (EFB gets only fixed if Repositioning happens through Fenix2GSX)
• Hidden Option to add a Delay before Auto-Connect happens on Session-Start (Delay cancelable with INT/RAD Switch) (#30)
