Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
• Flew medium cargo mission, just before landing the error came. I took a screenshot, the time was 00:10, so quite close to midnight just as others said, and in the other topics as well. However I remember flying light cargo around midnight and I never had this issue. This was the first time i flew freelance medium cargo mission because I just bought the caravan.

I keep getting caught out by this and losing progress in a flight I started hours prior. It seems to tie in with the point the passive income and insurance payments come out; when that triggers any on-going flight suddenly becomes invalid.

For me it’s around 00:05 to 00:10 UTC when it happens.

[Andreas0196]

Same Error here, shortly after midnight local time.

[Conker1461]

This is me turning final after a 4+ hrs flight
Just found this topic and noticed it was around midnight local for me as well

I’m dying inside

I’d really like to see this resolved as it is right around the time I can sit down and fly. I end up postponing playing the sim as I don’t want to encounter the bug anymore.

I updooted.

I believe it is related to the passive/insurance coming through, which happens at midnight, wherever you are in the world.

Problem for me, and I am sure others.. I can typically game in the evening, usually home by 830pm. This means I am already time limited on my evenings because I have to choose a flight that ends before midnight, and even then, there may be delays.

This is probably the most serious bug in career mode right now. Because of my free time it’s impossible for me to make a 2-3 hour flight without it going past midnight. So I can barely play

[sogywafle]

Words cannot express how irritated i am. I opened a ticket and they told me to disable 3rd party addons . . .

Every night around midnight, every night!

This bug is really ridiculous… I mean, I can understand that it can happen, but who thought it is a good idea to put the schedule job at the time shortly after midnight? There a usually quite a few people still playing at that time. I would wager that this probably could be “fixed” by just moving the job to something like 4AM instead, without any changes to the code at all.
