Checkbox 'UTC'

Hello Pero,

 

Just another little question ;-)

 

What is actually the function of the checkbox 'UTC' on the 'date and time' option ?

Whenever I click the 'UTC' checkbox it's like pushing the  'use system time' checkbox - and another time entry is blocked !?

 

I think it should be like on the p3d (or fsx) start page, Where I can choose between local time and GMT time without blocking the time change ?

Maybe I misunderstood something ...

 

Greetings and nice evening

The checkbox sets the current date and time to it's UTC equivalent.

 

I asked Capt Pero about this at one time and he stated that the problem is that FSX/P3D only allows for pushing the 'local' time.  The UTC time that you see in the simulator is calculated internally, so unavailable for setting by NG.

 

Maybe he has found a workaround since then, but I've come to accept that the option isn't useful for me, so I just ignore it.

Hello Ernie,

 

thank you for the Info ! :-)

In this case it is really a good idea to ignore this feature ;-)

Without time-change possibility it isn't really useful...

 

greetings
