[X-Plane 10.35] METAR incompatibility

Hi Silvio,

thanks for the last update of FSRealWX. Working good so far, but it seems there is still a but problem of reading AUTO reported METARs, which miss one or more values.

Like this here:
EDDN 221120Z AUTO 27005KT 240V300 //// R28/P2000N ///////// 02/01 Q1010 BECMG BKN010

FSRealWX failed to create the correct visibility (2000m RVR), because maybe the main visibilty tiem is not available in this METAR (dahed out after the wind value). It showed up 18SM in the X-Plane WX dialog. I guess we had a reduced visibility due to fog or dick haze layer, but the equipment at EDDN was unable to determine metrological visibility and cloud base.

It looked like a wonderful summer day here, which it wasn't indeed. Maybe RVR is not injected at all Silvio?

And another "possible" bug: At this METAR
ETSI 221220Z AUTO 32008KT 6000 // ////// 05/00 Q1009 ///
FSRealWX deleted all the clouds... Just because they are not determined, it doesn't mean that there aren't any. Maybe you could chang the loading behaviour? Like let the clouds of the next possible (range) METAR to load?!


Regards

Jakob
