REALLY bummed that we didnt get any noise canceling headphone systems like the other products
Maybe 1.6? I will wait for that. Its the only thing I really wanted.@JakeBunny In case you haven't read this from me before, the issue is that I would need to create an entire new sound package for the TBM to implement headphone isolation. I've been talking to Boris about scheduling this for years, but it's sadly not a priority for either of us right now. The Echo 19 sound pack does have noise cancelling, however, so I was happy to see this become an option for my users. I just didn't want you to think that I haven't been listening and avoided added a simple feature.

@Black-Square Noted! Thanks for the clarity. Does it actually display the cables for activation? I'm on the fence with getting the sound pack, but if it basically has that feature too. Im sold.
@JakeBunny As of yesterday, you are able to click on the headphone jacks in the aircraft to toggle the headphone isolation, yes
I can definitely recommend the sound pack (especially for this feature), as many of my TBM enthusiasts have said great things about it. -
It has headphone sim - it's just not adjustable that I can tell. Click on the headphone/mic jacks to the left of the pilots yoke. (that might be specific to the Echo 19 sound pack)

@MiRexer ah, so just one setting and doesnt show the jacks. Bummer. Gonna be a hard pass.
@JakeBunny It does show the headphone cables as of yesterday, but the isolation level is not variable.

@Black-Square I remember discussing the save state issues with you regarding the Duke aircraft. Back then, you mentioned that you were still technically limited in what you could achieve. I'm really happy to see how far you've taken things since then, especially considering that you promised to work on it.
I assume you are planning to gradually implement these new save state features across all your aircraft.
I just wanted to add one thing. Although I'm genuinely very excited about these improvements, because I absolutely love your aircraft, would it be possible to preserve the engine's physical state as well?
What do I mean by that?
Let's take my Duke as an example. I fly a trip, land, shut down the engines, and everything cools down naturally. I can see the fuel settling in the chambers and all those little details that make the simulation feel so realistic. However, if I exit the simulator and launch it again, the engines are instantly cold and all those deposits have disappeared.
Would it be possible to include this in the save state system as well?
I keep saying that you have the best-designed tablet of any aircraft developer out there. It would be absolutely amazing to give it a truly living soul, where even these small details persist between sessions.
Thanks for all your work!
