I meant that the code from my first post doesn't work reliably outside of XML, not even with SPLIT or WAIT commands, as you suspected. Of course, I can use the new L:Vars via Axis and Ohs after I've edited the XML file - great!

@Black-Square said in Autopilot with HSI free & Pitot block: @topfen said in Autopilot with HSI free & Pitot block: When the HSI gyro is free and the heading is slewed, the autopilot will follow the actual heading in HDG mode instead of the heading bug on the Gyro. I just happened to be in the right neighborhood to spot a flag in the SDK I had never seen before to enable this behavior. I guess I didn't see it in the past, because it had no default listed, so I would not have assumed that the default behavior was for the autopilot to be driven by the magnetic compass... Glad that's working now! Nobody is probably happier at these little features than I am, haha. Thanks for putting this in my mind recently. It will be rolled out to the entire fleet after SU4. I'm very happy to see that you're coming back to this! Meanwhile I had some fun watching the magnetic compass swing left and right while toggling the windshield heat on and off again.

Rgr, did exactly that, and it's already in progress I understand what you're saying about the forum and try setting up a new account. I like the support Nick provides.

Yup I would love to see this!

I was wrong about the taxi route in Chicago - that wasn't Real Taxiways causing that

@Black-Square Actually the time slider does kind of make sense with the rolling 24 hour live weather IMO. Slider all the way to the right is current time, all the way to the left is 24 hours ago. So left is as far in the past you can go weatherwise. Personally like flying with live weather but being able to select the time of day with the weather acting appropriately for that time, especially for dawn and sunset. If you don’t usually use that feature I see how it doesn’t make any sense, I almost always fly with live weather at a different time

@MiRexer Glad to hear you're enjoying it

@AlphaEcho it really rubs me the wrong way how quick they are to push blame onto developers when MP obviously has issues. Like these aren’t tech-illiterate people making add on aircraft, they can make add on aircraft that definitively do indeed work in the sim lol. Even if they are doing something incorrect clearly there’s something still broken or there requirements that are not being clearly communicated with the process

I did find the tablet option for the tail numbers, thanks. And best I can tell, it looks like some stuff does save, I'll have to test further. I'm wondering if there's a workaround using a backup state.cfg file, pasted back in after the sim starts but before choosing the aircraft. Probably won't work, but maybe worth a try.

I noticed that the latest beta didn't seem to be displaying the 2020 banner, so that might be part of the confusion! If it's displaying 2020, then the missing sounds are exactly what I would expect. Didn't you buy the TBM from the Just Flight store? If so, you should be able to get sounds by disabling the marketplace version from your library, and then reinstalling the Just Flight version.

Many thanks Nick. Looking forward to the update.

dont worry too much, focus on important things my wish would be to make the planes more alive. with alive i mean: i was onboard a few GA planes and the noises i heard are far from what i hear in most MSFS planes, also the noises in Airliners are far form what you hear, the cracking of materials etc. a copilot could say something at certain situations, JustFlight 146 has such a copilot and makes the cockpit alive, heatblure also creating an atmosphere in the cockpit not adjusting cabine temp. or not adjusting the cabine altitude should result in consequenzes the plane "speaks" to the passengers depending on what you do. thats why i like the term a plane is alive - is a breathing machine. you might be terrible biased but from my POV there is nothing matching the starship. happy weekend Nick

You're referring to the taxi light? All aircraft lighting has been under constant assault in SU4 Beta, unfortunately.

Unfortunately doesn't look like it made it into this Thursday release

Sorry it's awkward, but thank you for looking into it!

Interesting! I suspect that wasn't the intended behavior, but I'm not surprised that it persists. Glad you solved it!

Anyone? @Black-Square ?

I'm using the MOZA forced feedback Yoke and it works fine with all planes that I currently tested in MSFS2024 except the BS TBM850. The problem is with activating the auto pilot. The yoke immediately moves and banks the aircraft to hell. I also experienced this effect once at 20 000 ft in calm air. That's not fun at all. Anyone having similar issues?
