Yeah, these tooltips changed with the latest Update where they introduced the new “lock” interaction method. You can switch back to “legacy” in the options but I don’t know if that also changes the tooltips back. I think you have to lock on the control to see the status, so not just hover over it but click and hold left mouse button to lock onto it.
There is this post where you can find all kinds of infos, tipps and tricks about the cockpit interaction method:
Not all official materials are encrypted, only the Premium/Deluxe content so yes, it can be checked. As it’s general addition I don’t expect it to be encrypted.
After that, I got co-pilot visible when I reload the aircraft from DevMode>AircraftSelector.
He is invisible again after I reboot the simulator.
I can’t find out what happens, but I guess that something will interrupts loading of co-pilot model.
@MrTommymxr
Can you please provide the 4.2.1 for download agin for me?
“Alternators and fuel valves are on when starting from cold and dark” - why did you do this?
@MrTommymxr
I like to start the DA62 by hand
The AV MAster switch is now also on by default. I know from real aircraft that they are generally only turned on when the engines are running.
It would be nice if you could send me version 4.2.1 again
Other than when taking off, landing, and performing other significant maneuvers, I fly most of the time in an outside view to enjoy the scenery (which I can see much better in an outside view). And seeing a co-pilot adds to the immersion. IRL my wife is my co-pilot, so I imagine that’s her sitting there next to me.
I spend very little time inside an aircraft when flying low and slow
I’m not the dev but if it were me: I wouldn’t want to run the risk of having to support multiple versions on the forums and elsewhere. I’d want to know that the vast majority of users were on the latest version before troubleshooting, and would probably even make that a requirement to offer support. He might have other reasons, but that’s my own take.
flightsim.to will not offer the fixed download to users on their “my downloads” page, and on the project page, it will say “Latest version downloaded” even if the last file the user downloaded is the one with the missing “and”. Probably because you didn’t increase the version number.
Users who don’t follow this thread will not find out about the issue until they run into it and go actively searching for a solution.
Please in the future, just make a new version number in that case. Or maybe do this even now with the current version? Otherwise, there will always be confusion.
