A.Floor warning in A320N after takeoff

A.Floor warning in the A320Neo shortly after takeoff. Alpha Floor, If you google this, it is a real-world function of the Airbus Avionics to prevent a crash resulting from an inaccurately calculated take off weight being entered into the FMS that might result in the aircraft failing to achieve a safe flying speed. The warning, once issued puts the engines into TOGA thrust and forces the nose down; both of these actions are to increase the speed of the aircraft so it can safely achieve flight. When I encountered this, twice now, was after I stuck in a random flex temp of 59 and tried a flex takeoff, the game is simulating real-world complications, it is not a bug. Make sure of your weights and Flex temps, if not sure, a full power TOGA takeoff should avoid this. I hope this helps!

A.Floor is not only meant for take-off, it’s a function to prevent stall and as far as I know it’s active during any phase of flight (except below 100 ft RA). It does prevent stall when taking off with wrong take-off weight because it’s a function of angle of attack and not speed. Flex temperature should not affect activation of A.Floor if flown correctly, wrong take-off weight indeed could result in A.Floor activation.
