StormATC v0.1.2

StormATC v0.1.2 is a major realism and integration update for the voice-first ATC companion for Microsoft Flight Simulator.

Highlights

• More reliable VATSIM-style transcripts and readback validation, including repaired word/number boundaries and tolerance profiles that avoid unnecessary “negative” replies.
• Live MSFS 2020/2024 SimConnect airport and surface data for position-aware taxi routes, remaining distance, next turns, clearance limits, and expected taxiway signs.
• Automatically selected and repeating spoken ATIS, with local change detection and cached replay so unchanged broadcasts do not spend LLM credits.
• Direct encrypted API-key settings for OpenRouter, OpenAI, Groq, DeepSeek, and Anthropic.
• Aircraft-relative pushback phraseology using “tail left” and “tail right.”
• Opt-in FSLTL-aware nearby traffic and generated radio exchanges. Traffic scanning, LLM wording, and speech remain disabled by default, with a configurable hourly limit.
• UI improvements for settings tabs, status badges, and complete Windows microphone names.

Downloads

• StormATC-Setup-v0.1.2-win-x64.exe — recommended Windows installer.
