Font / Display Issue on ND

[djspatrick 15]

Hi,

P3D v 4.5 latest experiment update. A321 JetBlue Livery.

Just a minor issue but the waypoint between AXUKU & TULUM should be displayed as MID.

I'm not sure what these funny characters are,  but it's the first time I've seen this.

Flightplan:  MMMX/05R APN7A APN UT19 MID UJ18 LOKMA MMUN/LOKMA.I12R2

 

No biggie!

Can you please post the flightplan file? would like to recreate it.

What does the MCDU tell you?

[DaveCT2003 2428]

I'm not sure that's a very good route, there is no need for UT18 and UT19 in your flight plan.  Where did you get this plan from?  I'll post a much better route for you below.

 

Anyway, their is no font problem, those funny characters actually denote a waypoint along that route, which is EPNAS, located just before the AVATA waypoint.  The reason it's used instead on MID in the MCDU has to do with the NavData, since you're using a Jet Route, and the MID may not show unless you end the airway at MID and add the same airway back after MID.  I don't have the aircraft up to check that, but that's pretty standard.

 

A better route:

 

APN7A APN UT19 MID UJ16 XUDUN XUDU1A

 

Best wishes.

I guess I found the reason, due to the large scale you got overlapping characters for MMID and MID

Ah, never mind what I said above... I think you're correct, it should be showing as you described.

Yep, that's what I see as well!

Cheers guys - I thought maybe I'd had one too many beers in the cockpit and I was seeing things.

The route was generated in Simbrief then imported into ProATC/X - it's entirely possible that ProATC/X  mangled it.
