FS 2024 is the simulator. It doesn’t need extra information; it just doesn’t work

So… based on the latest dev livestream, this bug is not officially on their tracking list?

it should be in between EDDM and Sim hangs at desktop based on votes…

Nice catch!

My guess is this bug was originally a 2020 bug and the 2024 tag was added after 2024 launched and somehow it is being lost in translation.

It still has an SU12 beta tag, for example. Somehow it is not coming up in their search, I’m thinking.

I cannot even understand how this bug has just gone on this long.

Unsurprisingly, it still doesn’t work in the SU1 beta… I think it’s safe to assume this isn’t on their list for 2024, and I don’t think it will ever be fixed in 2020 either.
