Estimated flight time not visible anymore when planning a flight

[MSFSRonS]

Tried it tonight on my PC. MS Store.
CJ4
World Map - IFR/ILS, KJFK to KEWR

World Map
Shows 6 minutes flight time.
NAV LOG shows 8 minutes

Actual Flight
10 minutes

Note:
World Map shows KJFK to waypoint PATRN
CJ4 FMS LEGS show KJFK to waypoint AGNSS

World Map
VFR(Direct - GPS) shows 10 minutes

In my case it is still a hit and miss. Sometimes the flight time shows, often not. I am only using the FBW A320nx for my flights, always IFR and high altitude. I also select both a departure and arrival based on the active winds.

Didn’t find this bug report before but this happens to me a lot, it’s random maybe 50-50. I’ve found a workaround that unbreaks it for me.

World map no longer gives distance or time estimates between arrival/departure locations?

So I’ve finally figured out what seems to be a reliable workaround to make the the flight distance and time reappear on the world map. Arrange the flight and sometimes I get the distance marker and sometimes not. ESC to go back to exit world map. Re-enter world map, flight is still there, marker still missing. Change to a different aircraft, then change back to the original aircraft. Distance marker has now reappeared. I’ve had this a bunch of times now and it seems to consistently work. You …

Hello,
At one moment i realized that no time and distance shown on my map during flight planning. Any plane and routes. What should i do with it?
Thanks

Press the “Nav log” button. You’ll find there everything you need.

[bullgodmort]

There’s no total time and distance there.
Yeah, yeah, i know how to sum them up

I get the same thing happening. The only real fix i’ve found is to reset the plan, the game or even backing out of the map and going back into it a few times. The airport history doesn’t even work properly so the world map thing has at least a few other bugs and stability issues.

Same on pc for some of us, try changing flight mode to legacy and back to modern.

Hi guys,
in World Map planning a flight I don’t see distance anymore as you can see in the attachment.
Anyone had the same problem?

thanks.

I’ve never had this problem, but I do remember a thread about it in the last couple of months. You might search for it and see if they found a fix/workaround. I’ll check shortly and see if I can find it.

ciao,
thank you for your answer. I made a search before to publish this post, maybe I didn’t search very well, I’ll try again too.

thanks

I launched the game again and this time the distance is where it always should be. I did nothing, I didn’t click navlog but to be honest yesterday in my profile in the game I found I had 6 updates available about deluxe and premium edition, World Update I, II, III and IV and I’m downloading them.

thanks
ciao

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?

yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

1- start in safe mode (ms-store)
2- create a flight plan from LFAT to LFRN with the C172: flight time/distance don’t show-up
Note: if flight time/distance show-up, press ESC and re-enter to the World Map, flight time/distance info should be gone
3- apply workaround:

4- flight time/distance show-up

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

A slight enhancement to my workaround for this missing flight time bug , which I’ve been using consistently for months now.

If the flight time doesn’t show then jump out of and then back into the world map and then switch livery will fix it. No need to switch to a different aircraft. Switching livery is a little quicker than aircraft and I always use non default livery anyway so one action does two things.
