A330 fuel burn stays the same when increasing sim rate

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:
When I increase the sim rate to 2x, 4x, or higher, the fuel consumption doesn’t change and stays the same as it does at 1x. Since this is a long-range aircraft, it would be great if fuel usage scaled properly with higher sim rates, like it does with the default Boeing 787. This would make long flights much smoother when using faster sim rates.
At the moment, I have to set the fuel manually during flight to simulate the increased sim rate, which is far from ideal.

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue: Airbus A330 (all variants)

[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue?
Not applicable as the issue happens with a default airplane.

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. Start a flight with any iniBuilds A330.
  2. Take off and climb to the planned cruising altitude.
  3. Increase the simulation rate to 2x, 4x, or higher.
  4. Monitor the fuel usage and compare it to the expected consumption at the current sim rate.
