Spinning white circle lower right

Featured Replies

Has anyone ever explained what the spinning white circle on the lower right of the screen is for? Even when I am taxiing to the runway, it pops up about every 10 seconds. I can't figure out what the purpose of it is. 

 

 

 

It probably shows that the game loads data from your HD or Internet.

Yeah I thought it could be related to data being loaded from the servers...

Yes, but what is strange is why it keeps popping up while taxiing at 10 MPH? Why would it need to update every few hundred feet?

Moving vehicles at the airport maybe, If you pan around the first time you get to an airport you will definitely see the spinning circle, the game does not load the entire scenery at once.

I see it now and then as well. What I do like is that they made it very subtle.

It's recording and/or sending data. You can stop it by turning on Dev mode and then switching it off again.
