Hours/Hobbs reset to Zero on next startup. 2024

[Daveo]

Have not tried 114TC 2024 or 2020 yet.

For now I can back up the State.cfg to keep the Hobbs hours but the Tach still shows zero.

Should these save independently with each livery also or?

Normal Quit to Desktop shutdown.

Same here with me. Same with all other aircraft (but not A2A). I think it's still a MSFS 2024 bug.

@Zacke
My other AC are ok so I don't think its a bug in MSFS 2024 at this point in time.

There’s still an unresolved bug ticket for the Hobbs, it affects all aircraft for me as well: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/regression-hobbs-meter-not-saving-in-the-last-few-beta-versions/747013

It’s still tagged as bug logged and so far not fixed in SU6 beta either.
Nick has mentioned before that he uses the native Hobbs meter logic and nothing custom so it’s still on Asobo to fix.

That's correct. Since the hobbs time is stored in state.cfg, this is part of the ongoing state saving failures of MSFS 2024 that have prompted me to create my own system for this aircraft. I haven't included the hobbs, however, since I know the native variable is often used by 3rd party career applications and alike.

But what is it with the engine hours on the tach? They're zeroed every new session, too.

Thanks for the heads up. I have been on the A2A's until now the past few months so didn't even notice it.
Guess I will stick with 2020 for now until Asobo fixes this new mess.

@Zacke They're saved right next to each other in the same file by the simulator itself.

Thanks, Nick!

It's sad MSFS 2024 doesn't handle that in a adquate manner. But I'm extreme thankfull for your new state saving system (and the other important things (payload, fuel ect.) are saved since SU5 (?) with your other planes). And I'm very happy with all your excellent, innovative and fascinating work!
