ATC callsign numbers issue after 3.0.4 fix

Support&Help Bug report
1

Platform:
iOS and Android

Game Version:
3.0.4.

Airport:
All

Description of the Bug:
The ATC callsign numbers issue from previous versions was fixed in 3.0.4. So e.g. F90552 sounds like FRONTIERFLIGHT 0552 now and no longer sounds like FRONTIERFLIGHT 90552.

However, I noticed that ATC callsigns that have been manually edited to make them realistic have lost the real callsign now. TK8 (IAD-IST) is suddently Tango Kilo 8 instead of Turkish 8 and MH1 (LHR-KUL) is now Mike Hotel 1 instead of Malaysian 1. S

Steps to Reproduce:
Changed callsigns of British Airways flights at LHR from 4 to 3 digits. Result: call sign SPEEDBIRD
Changed callsigns of British Airways flights at LHR from 3 to 2 or 1 digit. Result: call sign Bravo Alpha

I’ve experienced this with only one callsign (up to now) at GRU, which was Turkish Airlines being called Tango Kilo after I changed it back in 3.0.2 with no issue

Edit: more callsigns being affected mainly E planes.

I have the same issue with the recent update (3.0.4) too.

Can confirm this happens on Android as well. I like to renumber my real-life contracts and a lot of airlines have flagship routes to LHR so this is quite a prominent issue. For example, United Airlines UA19 is the route between LHR and EWR but indeed with only 2 digits, the callsign is replaced by the ICAO alphabet (Uniform Alpha 1-9er instead of United 1-9er)

Thanks for the Android update. Have updated my original post accordingly.

This bug is caused by our assumption that the callsign will always contain 4 digits. Any other format results in incorrect calls.

This has been solved and will be solved with update 3.1.0

No it hasn’t

I still get it with 1-2 callsigns, like Air Century at SXM

And now the bug has evolved into it not using certain callsigns but using the two letters of the IATA code like Alpha Alpha for American for example

3.1.0 update hasn’t been released yet, so you won’t notice it yet :wink:

Op my bad, I read it as 3.0.1

A bit dyslexic here :smiling_face_with_tear::sweat_smile:
