747-8 happily burning fuel during sim pause

[elButz 1]

Hi,

as per title, I discovered the 747-8 burns fuel when the sim is paused. I didn't pause it the "regular" way with the "P" button (to spare my CPU of reloading the same frame for hours) but through going into the graphics settings in P3Dv4.

I had a pretty hectic schedule today (and will probably keep that the next couple of years to come) so it'd be great if the -8 would behave like the 737 and the 777 when going into the P3D menu/pausing the sim.

If you have workarounds please let me know them! I didn't find time yet to read through the manual, so if this is explained I'm sorry to waste your time PMDG!

Please open a support ticket for that to be checked. In the forum it will get lost between the threads.

Meanwhile it should help your hardware to press P and then go into the settings.. or not? 😄
