API Route Lost when user selects a/c

SimBrief Dispatch
1

Morning,

I am using the following link from our website using the Simbrief API -

This correctly pre-populates the fields requested (Routes / Dep / Dest etc), however, when the user selects their aircraft type or an airframe, the whole plan automatically recalculates and selects a suggested route, not the ATC route I sent via the API.

Any thoughts?

Hi Fraser,

Basically, this is because SimBrief considers routes to be aircraft-specific (it may prioritize different ones depending on the aircraft type, props vs jet, etc). So by default it resets them when changing the aircraft type.

That being said, I will add a task to preserve the route if it was sent via an API parameter. Hopefully this will make it into the next update.

Best regards,

Thanks for the reply!

Sounds great.

Many thanks,

Hi Fraser,

I’ve released version 2.10.0 now, which should fix this. Please let me know if it works as expected!
