Starship

@DrVenkman I can confirm that the workaround seems completely effective for me personally in regard to the Starship and the newest FS2024 Beta release. Buttons light up and exterior lights work fine with the mouse in Legacy mode. I kinda hate the blue glowy effect when hovering over mouseable buttons also, so I'll likely just leave things in Legacy mode.

@Black-Square Just one nerd-Beech fact - the actuator actually has two separate motors and associated gearing internally - main & standby. It's not just a power source. So if one motor conks out - have the redundancy of the other! @CapVideo Simple rule of thumb is ice-vanes/inertial-seperators extended for all ground ops except Take-Off and Landing (unless on gravel - which I don't think any respecting Starship owner would risk it!) The location of the Starship intakes far aft and above the wing make their use kind of moot on the ground - it'd be very tough for any fod to get up there. As Nick mentioned the prevalence of FOD is planned to be reduced in a future update. Patrick

A quick note that today's flight brought back the original issue with all pauses. Now that I know it's probably going to happen I'm ready to do a reset as soon as I reenter the cockpit - just something that I deal with.

Ohhh okay. It never occurred to me that it might be the GNS430 because I have it disabled I forgot about it.

@Black-Square thanks Nick then i did th pressurizing correctly. always think positive i love the starship and constantly learning more and more systems. i am curious of the next update.

@Sunake yes Sunake ofc.

Filling in trip planning doesn't seem to affect what is displayed on the fuel mgmt page, still is like 800lbs off of my actual landing weight.

Your adventure was so great I had to try by myself, turning off one of the engines. What I found out is that the single generator that remains works too hard to power the plane. And turning off systems to keep the load below 100% is not enough, at least until you get to lower altitudes. That's when the generator heat seems to become the major factor. Look at the tablet and see how pink it is just before it shuts down. By this time, all we have to land is half a six-pack. If I face this challenge again, the first things I'll do is turn off radar, all the heaters and the copilot avionics, as well as all the lights.

Thanks for the quick response. Actually, I've found the problem just before you posted: I had to configure SPAD to scan MSFS on every flight start (it is off by default). Doing so, the entire encyclopaedia of variables you provided were finally visible.

The missing interior icing effects have already been addressed for the next update. This may have also added more scratch effects to the interior too, but I neglected to look that closely. I'm so glad you're enjoying it! Starship is definitely the most incredible airplane I have ever learned about and had the pleasure of flying virtually. Let me know if you have any other questions!

That's correct. I've posted this somewhere else. But if you have a bit of patience, you can get it to work on all your flights.

The worst Ive done so far is cooked an engine to 40% on startup when it was an exceedingly hot day, I think 40C. Rose to 1200 degrees momentarily on startup. Still performed fine after that. My other engine is at 96% which I think I caused by running it at like 850ITT for a few minutes in flight, but im not sure.

@Magenta-Line said in 2024 QOL feature - Click to Enter: @MD82 said in 2024 QOL feature - Click to Enter: I've seen a popular stream walk up to the main entry, and he enters the plane. I think I watched the same video. I ended up concluding that was just video editing, since in the next moment he's inside the plane (able to interact with internal click spots) but next to the door, not in the pilot seat. Ok, I thought I was going crazy

I was looking for something generic, like exterior lights, but you're right that there's a limit and we're either at or near it

@Black-Square I am unable to find SduScreens AsiScreens AltScreens PfdScreens CduScreens Show hidden files is enabled When I do a search for them they aren't found. When I open with Notepad it appears everything refers to VR. Is there a way to upload my cfg??

Theres nothing strange about the procedure, thats a PT6A thing from Pratt. I've seen that on King Airs, and Twin Otters too

@ProfCrash That makes perfect sense. Thank you!

Additionally the flight plan was loaded by hand

@rinkerbuck If you remove the navigraph database it works fine. Im wondering if this is a bug in the starship, in msfs or in the navigraph data

Looking at you photo and comparing to the addon, there is indeed a marker missing between the aircraft altitude numbers in the addon (there are three, should be four)
