lol they went to the trouble of putting custom made buildings in Panama City but the main airport doesn’t exist in the game for some reason

lol incomplete wind data is one thing...but a couple days ago I had 110 knot winds on the ground trying to land when the actual METAR at the time said 6 knots

Dr. Video Games 0031 posted:I'm used to developers having, you know, a sense of urgency in addressing widespread crippling downloader/installation issues. I had assumed they were addressing those behind the scenes, server-side. But lmao, nope, they're really making people wait two whole weeks.

Anyway, until my VKB Gladiator comes in the mail I'm just letting the AI copilot fly OnAir missions transporting very legal, very cool cargo out of Panama. With damage turned off AI can complete most OnAir deliveries, it's great as a glorified screen saver. Also a good chance to re-familiarize myself with the avionics, etc

It's so obvious that OnAir was designed by Germans. Lots of insane details but terrible UX. I think it's the reputation deductions for extremely minor poo poo that really seals the case for me

Sagebrush posted:Does it ding you half a percent for stalling on landing in the small GA planes? because it's different in airliners but in a 172 it is totally fine and appropriate to hear the stall horn come on as you flare. They should just give you a "professional flying bonus" that can be turned off by people who don't care Soy Division fucked around with this message at 01:16 on Aug 28, 2020 |

I lived under a final approach for a midsized airport for awhile, you get used to it quickly. My neighbor who liked to practice guitar and have loud sex with the windows open was much more of a distraction

Also, someone asked awhile back who owns TBMs IRL. Mostly rich people who can’t quite afford a jet or who want something more rugged so they can fly into tiny airports etc.

BTW, MSFS is a great use case for Shadow since latency isn’t a big deal. I finally got off the waitlist and it’s been working out great, have 30fps with most things turned up to high/ultra and my joystick works with no issues.

Is there somewhere I can find a legend for all the colored lines that show up on the g1000 map?

Theris posted:G1000 planes have weird issues with programming flight plans, too. Selecting and activating approaches randomly doesn't work. Also the Baron's avionics occasionally turn off on their own. Does Asobo have a QA department? Maybe they did what my former employer did and fired all the QAs after COVID started because “automated testing” and “devs have more free time with WFH so they can do it themselves.” lmao

EvilBlackRailgun posted:There is an auto/manual switch on the right side of the overhead panel. Not sure if it works in FS2020 though. It does, that's what the AUTO SEL caution is telling you to set. Sometimes it can be a bit slow to switch tanks so you still get the imbalance warning, but it seems to sort itself out. On another note does anyone know how to view wind speed/direction in the King Air? Seems like that should be possible but I can't figure it out.

Dr. Video Games 0031 posted:Yeah, Microsoft doesn't seem too keen on hotfixes. We saw that when they refused to do anything about the huge number of people having difficulty installing the game at launch. They decided to wait a couple weeks before doing anything about that. It's in the backlog for the next sprint
