C408 Skycourier - G1000 shows left NG% for both engines

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

Garmin shows NG% left for both engines. When you start right engine NG% for that engine shows 0 (if it is the first engine you start), so it’s difficult to guess when to inject fuel. Then you start left engine and the same NG% shows for both engines.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

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

Every flight, career or free.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

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

  1. Create a flight with the C408 and start right engine first.

  2. Look at NG% in MFD

Can confirm.

Confirmed too. I have no troubles assigning condition lever (using spad.next). Only bug remaining for me is the exceeding G-force penalty when starting a career mission

I can confirm that the G-Force bug is still there. Condition levers work fine from my Bravo. My sensation is that now the aircraft is a bit faster, but I’m not really sure.

Issue still persists as of SU4 beta.

When starting the aircraft with the MFD off, the engine displays on the PFD are displaying correct values, however, here the alignment issue that was fixed on the MFD still persists with the values sliding off to the right onto the main portion of the display.

This is still present after SU4 beta as of Oct. 2

Yeah, still bugged

Can replicate the issue in FS2024.
In FS2020, right NG value is displayed as expected:

Confirmed. Same issue on my system (SU3 public release).

Even with the latest update this issue is still not fixed…

The PFD ist also broken, it shows nealry none engine parameters

Same issue persists in SU4 is release.

Yup, they havent managed to fix that one for over a year now.

As Jorg said. The priorities are the payware planes. As we haven’t paid for this​:scream:

I mean, technically you have. It’s also a Marketplace purchasable product like the Frequent Flyers and Local Legends getting updated.

The difference is the ones he’s talking about aren’t just suffering from bugs, they’re fully not 2024-native.
