Vatsim ATC does not filter out non-active controllers

When a Vatsim controller has the frequency “199.998” they MUST not show as active regardless of their position. This frequency denotes a controller who is not active.

What I expected to happen.

Do not show these as active controlling sectors until the controller activates to a valid frequency

What actually happened

ZDV showed as active. That shouldn’t have occurred until they were active and on a normal frequency (127.650 in this case).

Hello,

Thanks a lot for the feedback, and sorry for the late reply.

You’re absolutely right, those controllers should be filtered out and not shown as active. We’ll get this fixed in an upcoming release.

Thanks!
Albin
