"Flight Terminal"
Posted by James on 09-16-02 at 19:45z
Hi Guy's,

Tried for ages to hook up to a flight Emile had running and I couldn't get in. I even tried FS MP and adding the IP and clicking on Search to no avail!!

I tried starting a flight in room 2 and kept getting a cannot connect to session error!!!

Regards,

James (CONman) Anderson

What was giving you this error? FS2K2?

Just FYI, we were flying during our usual flight on Sat night and had no IP problems. Were you guys flying after that? We'll setup a test after the chat on Tues, but I suspect the problem is on your end as we haven't changed anything for weeks in the Flight Terminal.

Hi Ben,

Don't know what it was, FS2K2 was launched and after a while it came up as couldn't connect to session!! tried a few times with the same result.

I tried to connect at between 20:00 20:30 BST. It must have some thing to do with the million and one windows that open as you log into the flight rooms <G>.

If you were unable to connect via FS's MP by adding an IP address, I would suggest that the problem is not with the VPC, but on your system or connection. The reason being when you connect via FS's MP feature (known as an IP game), you totally bypass the VPC. The number of browser windows (which would number 3 *if* you keep the main lobby open) would not have any affect.

Just FYI, we're working on the Flight Terminal next and will remove the updating windows.
