ATC Does Not Give Vectors

Still no activity on this :frowning:

can we at least get an response as to if this is going to be addressed in MSFS2020, or put off till any new ATC system in 2024.

If its NOT going to be fixed, please just say so Asobo, and then at least we will know what to expect, and stop wasting time reporting this as a Bug, or trying to make any sense of of the whole “asking ATC for Vector” part of the simulator.

Its not so much the BUG that is frustrating (although it is ), but the total lack of response from Asobo about this situation.

Bugged Logged is all well and good, but in reality, it COULD stay logged for years, for all we are told.

To me the cause & correction seems pretty obvious.

(1) The Vector is calculated when one files a flight plan, but that heading is never updated, despite flying along the Flight Play waypoints

(2) Even when it is calculated, it is calculated as the Past waypoint to next waypoint heading, and NOT the Current Position to next waypoint heading.

Note: The Vector waypoint names ARE updated, just not the correct heading. (although they sometimes get STUCK, and then do not update either)

VERY FRUSTRATING as a simulator – but “who cares” as a Flying Game, so I conclude we now know what MSFS is.
