I'm on the map, but no data seems to be coming in.

Trouble getting online, setting up a server?

I flew yesterday and things worked ok. Now I don't seem to be having any incoming data from either mpserver05 or -07. I appear on the mp pilot map.

Anyone else having this problem? I'm using port 5000 for both in and out. It worked yesterday. What did I do?

I've had better luck lately with mpserver04. Tomorrow could be different... <shrug>

Keep trying.

Hey, that one worked. At least I know it wasn't me. Alas, my laptop doesn't seem to be able to keep with with the traffic. I'm getting freezes in the neighborhood of 5 sseconds or more in the topcat, which is technically called "not fun".

The MP servers are all messed up the last few days....hasn't mattered which server I have been using they are *all* messed up. Some seem fine on Friday but didn't register other pilots in the area on Saturday. Pilots popping in and out...Sunday my pilot list does not show aircraft that are definitely on my radar and I am talking to on FGCom. :oops: :shock:

It's just one of those things, unfortunately. Some servers can't see other pilots on other servers and some servers are showing all the pilots on the MP map but you cannot see them if you fly 20 feet from them.

It's a mess. :(
