(WINDOWS ONLY) TBAS v1.3.5b - Navy/ASTB Emergency Test Input Hotfix
BUG FIXES: An issue with the Navy/ASTB "Emergency" Aircraft Tracking submode was introduced in the previous update whereby inputs that cause the Fuel/Power gauge dials to "Snap" to a color (e.g. Yellow or Red) would not properly register in the program. "Knob"-type inputs that gradually move the dial positions up and down instead of via a "Snapping" behavior would still work fine, for the most…
Critical Bug Fix Fixed a critical bug whereby certain users cannot interact with the Aircraft Tracking UI without first disconnecting their HOTAS and reloading the software Changes · Added "No Controller Assigned" advisory if users attempt to run a Aircraft Tracking test subcomponent with no controller assigned to that subcomponent in the Rebind Menu · Added formatting lines to the Aircraft Tra…
Details The Emergency Test component "Fuel" and "Power" inputs now have toggles in the Pause Menu that allow the user to invert the direction that the dials move when those inputs are pressed. If a user has a controller with good rockers/sliders/switches for use with the "Fuel" and "Power" inputs, but the default behavior of those rockers/sliders/switches is to send a signal to TBAS Study Pro t…
Fixes · New scores would occasionally fail to upload to the new online leaderboards. Scores should always update now. · Leaderboard scores would not upload if you only had one save-file, but that is no longer the case. · Verbiage in the Stats menu UI has been adjusted to be more consistent.
Through the use of the Steam API, Online Leaderboards are now available for TBAS Study Pro. The Online Leaderboard is accessible either from the Main Menu or the Stats Menu, and lets users compare their performance to their peers. If you ever wanted to know how your performance measures up to the national community, now you can know! Have a really good score in your save files, and you don't wa…
Fixes The following are fixes for the Aircraft Tracking test: · The "Two Dimensional Throttle" Toggle (a compatibility setting for Logitech X56 HOTAS Throttles) in the Rebind Menu had broken in a previous update, and has now been fixed. · New controller bindings set in the Rebind Menu had failed to take effect until the Aircraft Tracking test was restarted. Because I suspect this problem is wit…
Changes In the previous update I had re-added auto-switching for controller inputs allowing players to control TBAS Study Pro "out of the box" (without needing to fiddle with the rebinding menu), allowing Unity to automatically switch "active" input to be whatever controller was sending signals to the computer. However, I was contacted about an issue from multiple users where certain controller…
Changes · Dichotic Listening Test target ear now alternates between left and right during the test. · Dichotic Listening Test "Even" and "Odd" inputs can now be triggered from two different controllers via new "Manual Rebinding" options · Emergency Test "Power", "Fuel", and "Reset" inputs can now be triggered from multiple different controllers via new "Manual Rebinding" options · Emergency Tes…
Fix: Fixed a graphical bug with the Terrain Identification subtest that made visible the rest of the "zoomed-in" map on the right hand-side of the screen during practicing and tutorials. Minor Changes: · The "Dial" component in the Multitasking subtest will no longer have its hidden "Time Until Movement" timer reset upon being clicked unless it has already started moving. · The "Next"/"Tutorial…
Terrain Identification Subtest (Navy/ASTB-E/PBMB) · Within 35 seconds, find the compass-orientation of a UAV looking down at terrain below by comparing the terrain in its point-of-view with a North-oriented map on the left-hand side of the screen · Having trouble getting the hang of things? Try the comprehensive tutorial anytime to refresh yourself on the problem-solving process · Are you pract…
Small bug fixes: · A new Unity update caused controller rebinds to not take effect until the "Level" was reloaded. I was unable to find a workaround for this so I simply made it so that when you exit the "Rebind" menu that the Aircraft Tracking "Level" restarts. It's a little annoying but at least now there should be no confusion as to why controller rebindings do not immediately take effect. ·…
Just a small update this week: Main Addition - Per user-request, added support explicitly for the Logitech Pro Flight X56 Rhino HOTAS throttle controller. By default, TBAS Study Pro looks for "Slider"-type inputs when binding throttle controllers, but the X56 Rhino Throttle controller features a "2D Axis"-type input that TBAS Study Pro previously did not support. A "Toggle 2-Dimensional Throttl…
Added settings toggle to the Main Menu for enabling/disabling UI navigation via controllers (gamepads, throttles, and joysticks). Controller UI navigation is now "Off" by default, meaning users will only be able to use Mouse and Keyboard to navigate menus unless they explicitly choose to enable the UI navigation using controllers feature. This should prevent the issues whereby players will have…
Fixes: · Inputs did not work for the Emergency Test. Inputs should now work again. · 2/3rds of the input rebinding screen "Reset" buttons did not work. Their functionality has been restored · Some of the inputs on the input rebinding screen did not reset when "Reset" or "Reset All" buttons were pressed. They should now operate properly. Minor Changes: · Per user request, an option to skip tutor…
After receiving several requests for TBAS Study Pro MacOS support I purchased a Mac and converted the Windows TBAS Study Pro v1.1 release to work on MacOS. The MacOS version should contain all of the features present in the Windows version. I'm still largely unfamiliar with MacOS, but like I've done on the Windows release I will do my best to address and troubleshoot any issues that may crop up…
Due to a change in the way inputs were handled in the new update, the "Uninvert" button lost functionality. It has now been restored. Additionally, due to a user request, most scores now display with the score cap (e.g. "37/99") to more explicitly indicate to the user what the score cap is in all instances. If any further issues arise I will continue to ship hotfixes. Thank you all for your sup…
