    @Flocat89 @Rimshot @ploodovic @Esoteric @jasmits @kityatyi @mburkhard @SadBucket Hi all. After much thinking in the shower, I figured out how to implement this in about six lines of code. Of course this spawned several hours of other code edits, adding more Lycoming behavior, and testing, but it was still easier than I expected. This had the byproduct of allowing me to implement the delay between mixture cutoff and engine shutdown that many have been asking about for a long time. It's surprisingly easy, so long as everyone is okay adopting the mixture control bindings of my turbocharged aircraft. (It works with the native bindings, so I'm not sure why people continue to struggle occasionally.) If they revolt, I will send them your way Kidding, of course.

    My Hobbs meter is reset back to 12ish every time I fly. I am using the same livery every time. I read in a different topic that it might have something to do with the way Asobo calculates it. @Black-Square With the advanced state saving added in the Commander, do you think it would be possible to backport that to the hobbs meter in the Caravan?

    On this note though, is there an ETA for this release? It does make VFR flying via headings very challenging

    I found a command to enable FD. I also found a command to enable TEST, but when I press the button, the test only lasts for one second... Although in the cockpit, when I press the button, the TEST lasts for about 30 seconds. I used 1 (>L:var_AutopilotTest, bool). And I still haven't found the command for AP DN and AP UP buttons...

    @skyseek Given that the Duke has been out for years now and I haven't heard of any unsolvable power lever problems, do you think you could send me a video of this behavior and some of the tablet screens? Thank you!

    @Jayman88 Did you check the Activation Details for Real Taxiways 2020 under the "Your Orders" tab on your Just Flight account? Unfortunately, I know that @Voice-of-Reason is away on holiday right now, but I will try to get you an answer from someone at Just Flight if one of the support staff does not see this post in short order. Sorry for the wait!

    Breaking: I found a way to solve the problem It can probably be done smarter, but the way it was solved was to delete (or rename) the Packages folder, MSFS will rebuild it after a restart, copy Bsq King Air and Asobo King Air from MSFS2020 to the Community folder and restart the sim. I am soooo happy, because now I can run the Gps via Glassout. And it turned out that I was not the only one with this problem, my brother in law had the same problem. But @Black-Square : pretty pretty please with sugar on the top: please release a 2024 version. I got cat pictures

    @Black-Square said in New and improved state saving: @Bishop I've been up all night monitoring the 114 release, so I've been slowly working on the code rewrites required to bring this to all my other aircraft. Glad tp hear you're looking forward to it, because this one is a lot of work. Wow, I recall you mentioning somewhere on the forum long ago just what a time consuming project that would be.... Many thanks and appreciation! Wild to get that kind of enhancement for free.

    Glass out does a pretty good job of finding most screens and instruments (not all). Most of these are from glassout - they look exactly like the starship cockpit above. [image: 3c0b01b5-61dc-413a-9454-08c6e6eafa5a.jpeg]

    @NixonRedgrave Glad you figured out the sound. Sorry for the delay. The temperature regulation problems have more to do with the lack of mass air movement through large forward-facing inlets, but rather just those two NACA ducts on the top of the aircraft. This is a typical problem with pusher aircraft, including the Skymaster. Let me know if there is anything else I can do for you! Always happy to help!

    @Butsey19 I used to fly an E model years ago (many years ago lol). I would absolutely love a C model too. I know I'm asking too much but it would be amazing if he did a release that included an early period model, mid period model, and late period model. So like a C then a K or TLS then the acclaim. I would drop some serious cash on that lol!

    Nick's statement that the Twin Commanders are "the first Black Square aircraft modelled and textured professionally" is the most unbelievably humble instance of "selling yourself short"... So stoked for everything to come. P.S. Mayhaps could we get an FAA Flight Check bird with the King Air? Although their B300s have a ton of modifications (to such a degree that they are hardly recognizable as KA300s), would it be possible to represent some of the superficial differences on the exterior? (E.g. the two window deletes on the left side, extra antennas, winglets.)

    Request - G1000NXI Option For Future Black Square Aircraft In Development

    @alanfernandes Yes you are correct but a lot of 3rd party devs have added in other features that aren’t included with the base working title avionics. Like for the G3000/G5000 Skyward developed a whole Datalink functionality with it and it has some protections built in. Especially now that we know that the King Airs are gonna be the 300 and the 1900D both of them could get garmins. The 1900D has a slightly specialized one called the G950nxi and the 300 has the regular G1000nxi.

    @Matchstick To my knowledge all 1900D’s were EFIS-85 from the factory. I hope he doesn’t keep the 2 Tubes exclusive to the 1900 though. I hope be make is an option for the Super King Air 300 as well. Unfortunately I would assume they are pretty early in development though, we haven’t got any screenshots of them and just now found out it was a Model 300 and a 1900D. I personally was wanting the F90 but thinking about it I’m glad he went with the 300 and 1900D. There is Avionics galore for them and upgrades. The 1900D has its own specialized version of the G1000nxi called the G950nxi built exclusively that type of work

    I've often modified engine performance by taking its weight into account, using all the data I could find online. I've never shared my work on this because I don't have a real pilot's license.
