They added the ability to manually save.

There will also be autosaves, which ini has had in all their aircraft since the A350.

What I am not looking forward to is hours of test flights to make a PFPX profile for it for fuel-burn. A real shame Simbrief hasn't introduced more customisation and detailed planning options!

Have 7900XTX unopened waiting for a PC to built around it to fly this plane (have a 4K monitor so got it for the VRAM) as my first venture into MSFS (still using P3D for most things as my ageing hardware copes nicely with it and everything "just works" at the moment).

you be looking at roughly AVERAGE CRZ FUEL FLOW - 11.510 T based on a tail wind of P045 and a PLANNED ZFW 355.874

but your right the simbrief profile isnt that good, and then going the other way with a head wind.

you be looking at roughly AVERAGE CRZ FUEL FLOW - 13.320 T based on a head wind of M028 and a PLANNED ZFW 354.819

So both flights full each way.

Be interesting to see what the takeoff calculator gives compared to flysmart

The virtualperformancetool also has an A380 profile - haven't tried it yet, but their 737-800 profile seems pretty good. A good tool.
