Why do I get an error saying something about mine and my friends panels not being the same?  We're running identical setups.  What is the problem?

Thank you for your issue report, the issue is forwarded to our development team for consideration.

Any words on why it's not working yet?

Unfortunately we cannot not support any issues related to multiplay, online communities, online server etc. because remote server connection problems may be caused by various non-product related reasons.  But anyway the issue was forwarded to developers for consideration.

The issue is that this doesn't appear to be a server/multiplayer issue.  This seems to be an issue with the CS C-130 software itself.  I hope that this issue is legitimately investigated.  Again this isn't an issue with servers.  Our computers were connected directly via lan.  This is a software issue.

This may or may not be useful, and I am certainly not part of CS... however, I have been around the industry for some time and have worked with many various companies.

If ANYTHING inside the cfg file is different, or file structure or otherwise, it WILL give this error. For example, I have ASA which adds an additional weather panel to the .cfg. I get this error all the time when flying with others. It however creates no issues.

I suspect regardless of the error, this plane will not work in multiplayer due to the custom coding.
