#2883 Multiplayer remote sound is broken on next

[Benedikt Hallinger]

Hi,
while adding engine sound to remote 172's and 182's I noticed the feature got broken in 2020.4/next.

In 2020.3.19 the feature still works!
But in next, no sound from the remote airplane can be heard (with same plane version).

The 777 (777-200) from FGAddon was the sample I peeked at when implementing, and there its also working in 2020.3 but not in 2020.4.

Nothing suspicious in the logs, especially no errors to be seen.

No idea why this broke, it's not an area of the code I know at all so hoping someone who knows the Ai/MP stuff will comment.

Hi Bene,

Just wanting to rule out that this is related to multithreaded loading of models, but is this with a single loading thread ?

If you mean the OSG pager threads option property (/sim/rendering/database-pager/threads), then yes...
