Hello all, just a quick question which came up on a Bristol MP session - who is supposed to control Portbury on mutiplayer games? Somebody says Weston does, but I thought it was Bristol.

Thanks in advance.

On the sim Portbury is shown as being controlled by the Bristol panel, however due to a Sim bug, all of the phone calls go to the Weston panel signaler.

It is common place in a lot of multi player sessions for the Weston panel signaler to ask the Bristol panel signaler before authorizing something coming from Portbury.

I once had this problem on an MP and we agreed on this arrangement

Have previously been advised by KevM (ex Bristol PSB) that the real life Weston-BTM boundary is at Parson St, with the Weston panel controlling all aspects (pun intended) of the Portbury Branch.
I can only help one person a day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either.

i can confirm what andy says about the weston btm boundary being parson street, btm position on the sim controls a lot more than it does in real life!
