There's a question in itself.

I have never used V/S for the climb, always have used VNAV. I do use it for descent when there’s not so many constraints or just want to manage manually, but no never for the climb. You definitely have the autothrottle on ?

Go and have a look at the tone at which that person replied with, they deserved every bit of it. If it was from a company selling a product then you might have half an excuse, but these are people building this in their own time trying to improve this hobby for our enjoyment. What has that person done to try and improve this hobby rather than abuse ? Again, build one yourself Superstar !

Build one yourself then Superstar.

Have got back into this product after a while away. Have done 5 flights, and every time i include SIDS/STARS in the flightplan it has worked well. Everytime I haven’t included them, it has gone haywire, vectoring me in completely illogical directions. Love the Live Traffic though, nicely done.

How do you know if it’s 9 pages of marketing 101 when you haven’t even read it ?

Exactly.

You’re right, i don’t think Ive ever deviated left or right of track due weather because i know i’m not going to get punished, don’t even plan for it.

Spot on with the above Ryan. You forgot one thing though, weather radar ! Weather is such a massive part of flying and yet it’s one area where MSFS is really lacking, you don’t even have to bother planning for it when flying this Sim. They seem to be more concerned with ‘pretty rocks’ and missions rather than get the basics right, which is why I look at it more as a game than a Sim.

Had the same thing happen yesterday.

Numerous, one day it's something, next day something else. For example today, flight in the PMDG 777, park brakes won't release. Yes i've researched, simple/realistic, bindings, nope they just won't release. Yesterday's flight worked perfectly, yet nothing changed, haven't touched a thing. Previous flight weather not corresponding to airport conditions, way out. Previous day, no settings changed yet today, back to normal. It's just not consistent, i can't get into the aircraft and fly without something, anything going wrong. It's becoming frustrating beyond belief. Edit: Shut the Sim down, rebooted it tried again, guess what, it works now. This happens constantly, tell me there's nothing wrong with this sim.

No it’s not hyperbole, it’s pure frustration. I won’t go into specifics, i will work through the issues myself. If you can’t admit issues and turn a blind eye, you will never move forward.

Graphics great, flight model......., weather........., rest of it......... I spent a week on the other sim and had zero issues. Plug in, fly. I went to the other one because there is just nothing but issues with this one. Came back after a week, voila ! Back to issue after issue. I don't think there has been a flight in the previous 20 where i have got in and there hasn't been an issue with SOMETHING ! This isn't meant to be an us vs them thing, i just needed to rant because this is becoming SO frustrating. Rant over, happy flying everyone.

Their not wrong about the weather though.

Someone mentioned earlier on that it might be the textures for 2020 not working well in 2024. Initially when i got 2024 it was butter smooth, worked beautifully. Now i have horrible stutters especially when I arrive at airports to the point where i can’t fly anymore and have gone back to 2020. Not in the beta, all i have done is add airports, some 2024 exclusive some not. So i am going to start experimenting by only using 2024 airports exclusively and see what happens.
