INIT B and EFB setting does not work as expected

According Manual:

"Set Payload + Fuel to Simbrief: If you select this option, the cargo, payload and fuel on board in the EFB will be set immediately to the Simbrief values. This ensures that the data on the INIT B page match the actual weights, but removes one step from flight preparation."

If I don't tick that option, I have to enter the values myself into INIT B. That's my understanding of that description.

But if I uplink the F-PLN, the INIT B page gets fully prefilled. That's not what I expect.

Further I would appreciate, if we can uplink the Simbrief weight values into EFB, but not into the FMGC. So the setting option needs to be split into two options.

Nose taxi take off light switch and few little ones

Love this plane. Just a few minors for me. Most have been covered that I’ve found:

Taxi take off nose light switch. Click spot needs elongating to the end of the switch if possible please

Autopause; please can we have a setting for just TOD?

And for me, GSX integration. At present not good. But also I appreciate the A340 has only been out for a few days

Great aircraft

How to make GSX work with the A340-600

Here is a way to make GSX work:
Download the GSX files below and copy them into Your %APPDATA%\Virtuali\Airplanes\ folder

This is a custom profile pieced together of serveral profiles I found on Flightsim.to, which can be found here:
https://flightsim.to/addon/105866/aerosoft-a340-600-pro-gsx-profile-1
https://flightsim.to/addon/105792/aerosoft-a340-600-gsx-profile
https://flightsim.to/addon/105790/aerosoft-a340-600-pro-gsx-profile

But none of these worked without flaws and also didn´t use the "Custom" refueling.

1. Generate Simbrief Flightplan.
2. Start MSFS2024 and setup the situation.
3. Ensure EFB tab "Simbrief OFB" is set to "Set Payload + Fuel to Simbrief" (Currently only the Payload will be set).
4. Set Fuel in the EFB "Weight & Balance" tab to 15% = 22.000 kg or less (the amount is just a recommendation).
5. Load the Simbrief Flightplan.
6. Ensure all Doors are set to "Close" in the EFB "Ground Services" tab (NOT Auto).
7. Call the Fuel Truck
8. When GSX ask You to enter the Fuel qty, enter the desired Fuel in the "Weight & Balance" tab and select "Quick Fuel".
(Fuel will be set instantly in the A340-600, but GSX will refuel progressive").
9. Call the Catering Trucks.
10. Open Doors 1R & 4R.
11. When Catering is finished - close Doors 1R & 4R.
12. Start Boarding.
13. Once the Jetway or Stairs are attached - Open the relevant left Door(s) and Cargo Doors.
14. Once Boarding complete - Close all relevant left Door(s) and cargo Doors.
15. Commence Push Back.

Note:
Although I have set Door 2L as the preferred, for me at LEPA, the Jetway uses Door 1L, Maybe because the Jetway can't reach so far back
I also found that having the Doors set to "Auto" in the EFB sometimes caused problems, that's why I ensure that all Doors are set to Close before using GSX.

Agreed with this. Lighting is too bright

Bugrad versinkt

Das umschalten von Innen auf Außenansicht bringt den Airbus dann oft wieder in die Originallage, allerdings fängt er gleich wieder an, langsam zu versinken. Sämtliche Schalter im Airbus wie auch Einstellungen im EFB ändern daran nix. Auch habe ich das Problem lediglich bei diesem Flugzeug.
Wenn die Räder über einer bestimmten Geschwindigkeit rollen (mehr als Schrittgeschwindigkeit), versinkt er dann nicht mehr.
Ab einer Schräglage von ca. 45° gehen dann auch Triebwerk 2 und 3 aus, 1 und 4 bleiben an....
