    So I was flying for maybe 10h in PA28 and I noticed cockpit elements stopped updating - steam gauges, buttons, throttle, propeller, mixture, radios were partially not responding on clicks - IDENT LED was still blinking, DME characters display was updating but not the buttons.

    I'm not sure if this is Arrow specific issue or is it one time problem. I recorded a short clip just in case - DME characters display reacting to changes but buttons were not updating, and the throttle - hints were showing actual value but throttle was still in the same place.

    Made a console screenshot if it helps in any way:

    @elewarr I've seen the same thing in both the Arrow and non-Arrow aircraft (e.g. C172). Usually after a minute (or potentially longer) everything "snaps" back to life again.

    Not sure what causes it, only happened to me like 3 or 4 times in almost a year now though so I wouldn't want to be the person trying to track down that bug haha

    @vcapra1, now I recall I may have seen this earlier, not sure if it was Arrow. But (this time) it didn't start working for me - it was like this for hour or so.

    It looks like it's related to one or both of these issues:

    • https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/button-freeze/392783

    Though neither has a lot of votes, which I'd expect since it doesn't seem like an overly common issue. Unfortunately this probably means Asobo won't be able to address it.
