ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

When setting the weight in the cargo tab of the EFB using the Quick fill slider to 0, the weight of aircraft doesn’t actually change, but the UI indicates it does. 1-100% works fine, but 0% has no actual effect on aircraft.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?

Every time.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Load in C172 where it’s easy to see the weight shift.

  2. View in external camera.

  3. in EFB cargo tab, set 100% weight. See plane leans back.

  4. Set 0% weight. See UI updates, but plane does not lean forward.

  5. Set 1% weight. See plane now leans forward as the weight is actually updated.

Adding to this post that it seems to not affect all aircraft, for example the stock default 152 is not affected by this bug. Maybe it’s not a simple UI bug?

This can’t be that hard to fix, it’s a REAL problem for cargo flights because, guess what, now when you set the correct parameters in Simbrief, it simply REFUSES to allow passengers to be anything but zero. So please make this a priority and let’s fix it… pretty please??

Im wondering if anything works in this game at this point, im so tired of this bugs, they should have stayed in the Simulator of 1982, waste of money
