Version 1.4.3.2 Patch

Download the v1.4.3.2 patch by clicking here.

To install this patch you must have version 1.1 or later of London Control. This patch will not update any earlier version. To check which version you have, open the Help | About window when you are running London Control (press <Alt> <H> <A>).

The patch will download as a zip file containing the patch setup program.

Save the zip file to your disk, open it and then either run Patch1432.exe from there, or save it to the Temp directory and run it from there.

This patch includes the following new features (since v1.4):

  • If only one user name has been defined, this will be selected by default in the Log-on Window when the program is started.
  • The keyboard shortcut to open the Sector Conflict Tool has been changed to Alt D N, to stop it conflicting with the Offered Bay (Alt D O).
  • A Knots/Mach button has been added to the Speed Menu, and to the Combined Clearance Menu (in the latter it appears in the place of the ILS button, if that button is not present). This allows the alternative type of speed clearance to be input (eg Knots when the system defaults to Mach).
  • Display performance has been improved, particularly the handling of large amounts of map data which sometimes caused a slow redraw of the screen background. This should also alleviate the performance problems some users experienced when running Germany Radar.

This patch also corrects the following faults in v1.4.2:

  • Handling of stacks has been corrected so that aircraft will only descend to the minimum level appropriate to the stack.
  • A command line option -v has been included to inhibit the use of speech recognition entirely. This enables, for example, users of Windows Vista with no microphone connected to run London Control without receiving an OLE error.
  • Aircraft no longer orbit when they reach the last fix on their route.
  • Vertical sizing of the multi-bay tactical list has been improved.
  • A command line option -i has been included to force the software to use the 'old' style of display redraw. This will improve performance for those few customers who have experienced problems with the new redraw method.
  • The NFL into an approach sector for an aircraft in the hold (or approaching the hold) is now kept in step with its CFL. This means the hold list will show the correct level when aircraft not yet under the control of the approach sector descend in the hold.

This patch also fixes the problem in version 1.4.3 that prevented Germany Radar from running correctly.

This patch also updates the User Guide pdf file with the latest version (this can be found in the Help folder of your London Control installation). Note, however, that the run-time help information has not been changed.

Information about what other faults have been fixed in this patch can be found on the Software Fault Reports page.
