Apollo 9 - missing MCC updates (sometimes)

[thermocalc]

Hi to all,
one question: sometime (not always) it happens to me, that starting from a saved scenarios when the time come from the checklists to get a MCC update (it can be a simple SV update or a S056 or a maneuver PAD) nothing happen.
Of course this again happen during time compression periods, but disturbing is the fact that sometime it happens also going at x10, which make me think that the saved scenario was already (maybe) corrupted by going at x30.
I was just wondering if there is a way to manipulate (in a easy way for not specialists so to speak) something in the scenario file to get again a MCC update at the right time ...
I red somewhere in this forum that the MCC messages are sequential and there are some "counters" in the scenario file and if one get screw up or corrupted the next automatic update doesn't appear any longer, but I can't find it anymore and I don't remember if there were a "quick fix" for no software experts.
any thought about it highly appreciated as usual.
Thanks guys out there...
Paolo

Time acceleration shouldn't be a factor for the MCC. But what could be happening is that an MCC calculation is failing. You would get a "Thread Started" message, but not a "Thread Completed" message. It could also be a simple case of the checklist not having been adjusted to what the MCC is actually doing. Maybe you can tell me a specific case where you are not getting an MCC update and then post the scenario before it (or at least the MCC part of the scenario).
