Flying Hours Frozen

[PilotCentaur736]

I have noticed flights randomly vanishing from my Log Book and I am aware of the other thread but over the last couple of days I have noticed a worse issue and that my Flying Hours is frozen at 203 hours. Before this they always went up even if the flight vanished from the log book. Now they fail to increase even if I complete the flight and shut down at the gate. I did have Developer Mode enabled a few days ago to check FPS etc but that has been switched off since I know it prevents hours being logged. Its confirmed as off and pc and sim since restarted.*

I am not sure if this is a SU4 Beta issue? Can anyone else confirm experiencing this?

Hi, the same thing is happening to me. Some flights disappear from my logbook. Once I’ve finished the flight, I check it and it’s there. The next day, before starting a flight, I check it and the previous day’s flight disappears.
This happened to me in SU3 and with the SU4 beta. I make a copy of the logbook files, including the contain_index, and restore it, but when I start the simulator, it tells me it’s synchronizing data and changes it, deleting the flight.
I check it with the Flight Log Analyzer app and it’s still there until I do another flight, then it disappears.
I’ve noticed that if you do more than one flight a day, for example, one at 7 a.m. and another at 8 p.m., in the logbook, the order is 8 p.m. first, then 7 a.m. I changed the time in Windows to 12 p.m., but it’s still the same: 8 p.m. first, then 7 a.m.

Is no one else experiencing what I described? I have since made more 2-3 hour flights in the Fenix and they DO show in the Log Book’s list of previous flights BUT my “Flying Hours” refuses to increase. It has been stuck on 203 hours since joining SU4 Beta!

All I ask is for others on the SU4 Beta to confirm, or do a quick test, to see if their flying hours still increases after every flight?

My total hours aren’t increasing, but it doesn’t save my flights either. I fly the Fenix.

Flights being dropped from the logbook has been a known issue since March:

Flights logged dropped from logbook

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Description of the issue: Flights completed today/exited normally have been logged; and are subsequently dropped from the logbook. This occurs during normal free flight when Dev mode was not activated for any reason. Did you experience this issue before you joined the Beta? N…

The issue with Flying Hours does not seem to have been reported before so may be new to SU4.

Yes I have experienced the missing flights from the log book BUT hours still increased. I honestly cannot remember if they increased in SU3 Beta. It is a easy thing to check if people are using the beta so I am surprised no one has confirmed yes or no to experiencing the same on this forum and my Avsim post

OK, so I can confirm flight hours are not increasing on my PC in v1.6.5.0

Yesterday:

Today:

And my 1hr 19 minute flight today was 202 NM, so the distance flown should have increased to 50,294 NM.

Flight hours are still frozen in the Sim Update 4 Beta (1.6.7.0). No matter how many flights you take, you’ll still get the same total hours.

[SmotheryVase665]

Yes - no change in the v1.6.7.0 build (the “Total Flights” number is also incorrect):

Ive been flying lots and my last logbook entry is september 9th. Nothing is being updated.

The issue with Flying Hours does not seem to have been reported before so may be new to SU4.

I reported this back in June, during the SU3 beta.

Total flight hours do no longer increase

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Description of the issue: I have noticed that my total flight hours, in the pilot profile overview, do no longer increase. I can’t say for certain when this problem started, but I noticed that it’s been stuck on 314 hours for quite a while. Maybe since SU3 began? Now, you will see that the total flight hours in the log differ from the overview, but this is because of a different issue, where flights are dropped from the logbook. Still, even with this discrepancy, the total ho…
