V3.0.0.11 still no descent from ATC

Another vanilla XPlane flight - KATL-KCLT imported from simbrief. Every ATC interaction perfect until I passed TOD and entered the STAR without any ATC contact. Chat stopped playing as well.

The log file does not contain the ATC interactions where I asked for enroute descent and also contains exceptions.

At 09:46 I refiled the flight and got approach vectors when I asked to switch to approach and asked for the specific approach. So, anything that went wrong is before 09:46.

Yes. This bug is still on the list of unresolved issues.

When we think we have it fixed, it will be listed with the Update list of fixes.

Thanks,

I am having the same problem...ATC forgets about me. This started over the summer with v2.7.0.2. In that version, I could request an enroute descent and sometimes that would "wake up" ATC and start guiding me through the arrival and /or approach. However, where I used to get instructions on what to expect before the TOD, I never get that now. It is the same in v3. On today's flight (KRNO-KHND) all seemed fine until I passed waypoint FUULL at which point I should have been handed off to Los Angeles Center, but never was. I passed the TOD without hearing from ATC at all. Over the past couple of days, I tried requesting an enroute descent, as I could do in v2, however the controller simply said they could not handle that request. I did not do so today, I merely stopped the flight after passing the TOD without further instructions. Log is below. Hopefully this helps. Please let me know if I have something not set up correctly, or doing something wrong, or if you need more info from me.

I haven't has this problem since version 12 or 13. ATC has been fine for the entire flight. Not sure if it has been fixed on your end or it is because I have been tweaking the flight plans after import rather than just import/validate/file.
