Stop the default scenario on restart/crash

Featured Replies

Hey guys and gals, I'm fairly new to the scene but have been flying all year so far in X-Plane 11. I also picked up P3D v3 when I got X-Plane and haven't spent a lot of time with it but recently got a few birds I want to fly since they're not available in XP. So I've given P3D a few goes but what has driven me NUTS is that instead of restarting the current scenario, P3D in its infinite wisdom reloads the default scenario. Every. Damn. Time. 

So much so that I've rage quite each time lol! 

I could turn off the crashes and such but I want to fly as "real" as possible and I could save the current scenario and set it as default, but do I really have to do that every time I just want to noodle around and try new things? I've googled and search these forums and haven't found anything so is this just one of "those" things I have to get used to with P3D?

I'm a frequent posted over on Mutely's Hanger and I asked the folks there and there doesn't seem to be any "fix" for this issue.

Crash detection is totally buggy inside P3D. If you want to fly as "real" as possible, turn it off.

Agree 100%! if there was some visual depiction of crash damage, I might use it, but since all it does is freeze the screen and reset, why bother?
