Manifest question

[dazaxiii]

Hi Dutch,
Having got used to ferrying the same cargo around for a while now I thought it would be a nice idea to amend the items list and have some new cargo. I’ll happily post my new manifest when I’m done in case anyone else fancies a copy too.
Couple of quick questions though please. Am I right in thinking that I’m limited to twenty characters with what will show up on the FCom and secondly, could you explain what the numbers are referring to in each entry.

1000-2000,500,3-3,0,Pallet,s,Misc. Items,5000,1

Thanks. ;D

Hi dazaxii !

I too was into the project of custoized ITEMS, the entries you're talking about are explained very clearly in the User Guide.pdf found in your Doucmentation folder inside root FsCaptain folder.

If you go to page 85 it is explained there !

I was able to make my custom item list that was restricted for my HUB and some airports, where the items in for exp. EDDH were made of German stuff like Mercedes Car or Wurstel etc...

Here you have an example of my items.cfg
50-200,250,2-4,4,Box,es,Prosciutto di Parma,5000,0,2,0,LIMC,100
500-1000,70,2-4,1,Crate,s,Italian artwork,5000,0,2,0,LIMC,100
50-500,20,1-4,4,Box,s,Charity supplies,4000,0,2,0,LIMC,100
500-2000,20,1-4,1,Crate,s,Marmo di Carrara,4000,0,2,0,LIMC,100

I added these lines at the end of the items.cfg and I added many more related to the dep. airport... the only thing ...I already asked Dutch about it but didn't have any answer yet, that sometimes I'm in EGKK Gatwick (UK)and I have on board some items limited to LIMC Malpensa (ITA) even thought these items were limited by the entry :

,LIMC,100
50-500,20,1-4,4,Box,s,Charity supplies,4000,0,2,0,LIMC,100



Anyway if you need more help I'm here .

Had a quick look at the manual but obviously missed that, oops. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, that will help a lot. ;D

Hi Guys,

It looks like maybe the airport limiter feature isn't working right. I'll add that to the list of things to look into.

Yes Dutch, its working about 80% right, sometimes coming back from Dubai I get on the manifest Italian Ham...umm.. its a bit not accurate.
