Hello everyone, no one is ignored. The team is aware of the situation (as stated by the official tag). As soon as we can share more information, details, or any kind of communication, we’ll do.

We understand the frustration behind this kind of bugs and the team is dedicated to solve these problems.

When a fix is server side, the sim doesn’t require any update from players and might be faster to deploy. Some fixes may require pushing code and, in that case, this may result in having to wait for an update.

Any update on this will be shared once available.

read this and see 2 new updates for both Reno and my 2 CRJ packages, so there is surely some work in the background (though CRJ was obviously an AS task but at least I didn't have to wait x weeks until it is pushed via the marketplace/content manager)

Really, I don't understand what they mean. This sim is working perfectly after SU7, anybody who is not an entitled kid on this forum will tell you that.  The weather is specially better.

The weather is working bad on airports. Metar is ignored. 

And the ai traffic never worked well. 

That is true. So is good they want to fix it.

Irony...

Those who accuse us to be entitled kids should thank us instead, because without the noise we are making on the forums nothing would move. That's why I say "keep reporting", we have the right to have the issues fixed.

To clarify: The specific issue here that Asobo has acknowledged is that cloud heights in METARs are wrongly being interpreted as MSL instead of AGL. At higher-elevation airports, this has the effect of showing the clouds at a lower altitude than they should be.

Nah, You're just Nuts. haha.

Meanwhile the Mouse in VR Bug which has more votes goes ignored...again the communication is simply appalling.

Sorry, but I don't agree with this. My sim WAS working perfectly, but now I'm having a lot of CTD after SU7. I virtually never say anything about the sim on any forum. Far from being an entitled kid, I understand what goes on in developing the sim!

Do you have a source for this?  I ask because that would be a bad error, the issue also exists at coastal airports were MSL=~AGL, which implies that it can't have to do anything with AGL vs MSL and that not only airports with higher elevation are affected.

Ollie didn't point out what bugs specifically they are aware of, could as well be something else being ignored. 😉

This is implied by the title of the post quoted in the OP: "Are cloud bases in new METAR system in AGL or MSL?"
