allowed altitude variance not working ?

[MindYerBeak 73]

I  installed the latest update (2015) and it looks like  atc does not care if I climb or descend..I have set allowed altitude variance at 150 and even if I was flying  2000ft above my assigned altitude atc   was silent. Ijust did egns-egnm.My assigned altitude was 18000 and I  flew  up and down  all the way to see if atc would tell me off.Nothing.zilch.He gave me heading directions but that was not interested in my altitude. ?

Thanks for the report.

There was a bug and it should be fixed in the next update.

The next update won't be out for at least a week.

However, were you on an IFR Flight Plan?  The bug I found was related to a flight at a lower altitude where no climb instructions were given.  On VFR flights, you will not get altitude corrections as you are not under ATC control.

 

If this happens to you again on an IFR Flight Plan, send me a note with the log file attached so I can be sure there's not another bug.

 

Thanks,

Assigned altitude was 18000 and it was ifr. Will let you know if it happens again.
