Yep, and Torsten already decribed it well: >>The GPS code sets the property /autopilot/settings/true-heading-deg if >>/instrumentation/gps/config/drive-autopilot is true (which is true by >>default). >>I don't know much about the details of the new gps code from James >>Turner, >>maybe he could chime in for some explanation... On the 737 and other aircraft (except those I mentioned in my previous posting) I have to use the DTO-Mode. Otherwise it won't fly to the next waypoint. So several Aircrafts needs fixing. The other thing, but I already mentioned it in the IRC-Chat, is that NAV1-Heading-hold and NAV1-GS-Hold isn't working anymore. Only the one with nasal-scripted Autopilots. We haven't got much of them.... > For the record, my perception is that entering a value in > the generic autopilot dialog for 'true heading' has never > worked, because the value would **always** be over-written > by the route manager. It worked as long we didn't use the Route-manager. Like Curt already said, with pending waypoints the values are overwritten, but only then.

Yep, but though a lot of aircrafts has to be fixed before release, or otherwise we will really have a "debacle"!
