    I saw an unofficial comment saying that the MSFS 2020 version of the Starship will have all the same functionality as the 2024 version, sans the walk-around. Was this info accurate?

    How does the Starship perform (FPS-wise) in comparison to the Dukes?

      That is correct. In my experience, Starship possibly performs better than the Dukes. Either way, all those screens and calculations have no noticeable impact on performance.

        @Black-Square - Wow! That is NOT what I expected/feared. Great news! It sure looks impressive … I’m not sure it will replace the piston Duke as my favorite Black Square aircraft (just love that startup), but Starship looks like it shouldn’t be missed.

          I'm glad you're looking forward to it. I started working on Starship long before we even knew there would be a MSFS 2024, so don't worry about anything. I don't want to overstep... but I think Starship might become your favorite airplane in MSFS, as it has become mine. The Duke is cool, but Starship is just the most magnificent thing I have ever flown.

            I was curious about performance impact. The most complex MSFS aircraft are well known to be FPS or memory hungry: A380, A350, PMDG to some extent… Not sure how much of that is typically due to CPU consumption due to systems being simulated, or VRAM due to textures, or RAM, but I’m curious what PC hardware you develop on and how you get feedback about performance (and often the performance hit only becomes apparent when you use it in combination with other add-ons like a big detailed airport and A.I. traffic).
