Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

Hey,

I've got a question: with the Level D 767 .prf file, FsBuild calculates 4000ft step climbs on e.g KSAN-EDDF. Is there a way to change the step size as I'm used to do 2000ft steps?

Thanks in advance!

Okay, I tried to delete the half the entries but without any success: still 4000ft steps.

Ah okay, now I got what you meant. Yes I know about that, however, I'm using not the ICAO standard but 2000ft as it is the usual step size. And to have the calculation (e.g fuel) as precise as possible, I'd like to have FSbuild to calculate with 2000ft step sizes instead of 4000ft. So is there any possibility? I'm not very familiar with the .prf files and how to change the entries in order to get this step size.

So I've modified it like this:


[Altitude]
;--- Altitude Capability ------------------------------
; Altiude Max GrossWt
30000 405650
32000 388000
34000 353000
36000 327000
38000 293500
40000 269000

because this are the real gross weights for the altitudes, however, FSbuild is still calculating 4000ft steps *sigh* Do I need to increase the gross weight to get a smaller step size?

I believe if you select <Use RVSM Flight Levels> under OPTIONS-->SETTINGS-->BUILD, it will automatically calculate 2,000 foot steps without modifying the .prf files. At least it does for me. Try it.

Oh wow, thanks a lot, now it works. This is strange as I already had this option activated. Maybe I didn't restart the program. Anyway, thank you very much! FSbuild is what I was looking for a long time! Great program!
