Engine number 2 shutdown Boeing 777 family and engines 2&3 shutdown on 747-8

Hi, I have noticed that since SU9 when using any of the 777 aircraft that when main tanks 2 & 3 have depleted their fuel, engine number 2 shuts down even though I still have fuel in tanks 1 & 4. I wondered if
anyone else has encountered this issue or if it’s an isolated incident. The only way around it for me is to select unlimited fuel in the settings, I prefer not to do this as I like to keep the settings as realistic as possible. I’ve tried deleting all 3 aircraft Boeing 772, 773 and 77F and reinstalling them but no joy! As I say I never had this problem pre SU9. I’ve also noticed the same issue on the 747-8 which is a stock item, same fuels tanks 2 & 3, with engines 2 & 3 shutting down even though there is fuel in tanks 1 & 4, even with Cross feed enabled or disabled, fuel pumps enabled, it makes no difference. Strange how it only happens on the Boeing aircraft. I guess if I choose to fly these aircraft I will just have to enable unlimited fuel until the problem is fixed. If and when it gets fixed that is! If anyone is experiencing the same issue or has a solution please let me know. I’m on Xbox Series S.

Thanks.

Moved to #third-party-addon-discussion:aircraft as 777 is not stock sim and this request is not about the SDK where post was originally raised.

This problem seems to be occurring on the 747- 8 also which is a stock item.

Yes, I have the Salty 747-8 and when flying across the atlantic from SXM-CDG, engines 2 and 3 shut down despite there being some fuel in other tanks which are feeding through to 2 and 3 through crossfeed. I don’t think it’s some problem with our flight plans, but something with the game

Yes it’s definitely a bug as this problem never occured pre SU9. I use the the 777 family aircraft and the 747-8 alot and have never encountered this problem until SU9. I really hope it gets fixed soon
