Topic: Tugmaster issues

Hi!

Now with the new great Ground Handling plugin I tried also to use the TugMaster again as a nice addition and ran into an issue again, why I stopped using the TugMaster plugin a while before.

It looks like that triggering the "pause" command in X-Plane (default is Spacebar, I think) will spawn a windows command shell with the dos command "pause" over and over again (after pressing a key in the command shell window, a new window pops up immediately).

Sometimes it repeats for some times "only" and I can disable the TugMaster plugin using X-Plane's plugin admin, but sometimes it continues to spawn new command windows and the only rescue is to end X-Plane by closing the X-Plane window.

I checked with TaskManager that the DOS box is spawned as a child of X-Plane:

And you can also see the "PAUSE" command being executed:

Maybe this is some debug code that is triggered somehow. I had these issues with the X-Aviation Saab 340 when using the plugin the first time a while ago.
And now when tried again these days I had the issue with the Saab 340 and also with Carenado's Beechcraft 1900.

I'm currently using X-Plane 10.42/64bits on Windows 8.1 and Tugmaster 1.1

Would be great, if you could have a look at it. I'd love to use the TugMaster again with the Ground Handling plugin! :-)

Please let me know, if I can provide additional details.
Cheers,
