I was on the ground at the gate of KSEA (Seattle), and I loaded fsp as usual, and only loaded about 50% of fuel because that is all I
needed. That worked out great and I started to taxi toward rwy 34R which most people probably know brings you by the gas station. For
some odd reason, when I pass the station my fuel went back up to 100%. I didn't actually notice this until 2 minutes after takeoff when I
checked the inflight report to verify fuel consumption. In this report, my fuel used was about -50000, fuel remaining was about 90000,
and both the fuel to time conversions were reading minus 1 hour and above. I wish I got a screen at this time.
There was no fuel leaks or problems with the plane, after noticing this problem I landed immediately to try and figure out what happend
and see if I was penalized for it. Luckily I wasn't penalized, but this is still quite a strange bug.
I'm going to see if I can reproduce it at all to try and get screens, but for now I want to see if anyone else has encountered a similar
problem. I always thought that when fsp was enabled, that the fs9 fuel reload system was basically disabled, am I wrong? How does it
work exactly?
