Sim Update 2 Beta (1.4.7.0) Release Notes - March 25, 2025

SeedyL3205 · March 24, 2025, 4:38pm

RELEASE NOTES Sim Update 2 Beta - 1.4.7

If you are playing on PC, outdated packages in your community folder may have an unexpected impact on the title’s performance and behavior.
If you suffer from stability issues or long loading times, move your community package(s) to another folder before relaunching the title.

Memory Logging in the Sim Update 2 Beta

Memory logging will be enabled in the first Sim Update 2 Beta build, which will cause a small decrease to performance (in particular during menu transitions). The telemetry we receive from this memory logging will aid our investigations into stability improvements. This memory logging will be removed from the Sim Update 2 Beta before release, or as soon as we have enough data.

On Xbox console, you can help ensure we receive your data by following the below instructions:

Navigate to Settings > System.
Now select Console info.
Check ‘Allow optional data collection’

Changes to Career/Challenge League in the Sim Update 2 Beta

Beginning with the Sim Update 2 Beta, Career and Challenge League will have separate progress and leaderboards from the live build.

This means Career mode progress in the live build will not carry over to the flighting build, and vice versa. In addition, Challenge League in the flighting build will have a separate leaderboard from the live build.

Making Career and Challenge League progress separate in the flighting build allows us to test additional changes and fixes that cannot be tested in the live build. All Career specializations will be unlocked by default in the flighting build to allow participants to preview changes that might not be available (based on Career mode progress) in the live build.

FAQ

Will joining the Sim Update 2 Beta (and future Sim Update Betas) impact my progress in Career mode on the live build?

No, Career mode progress is locked to the live build. No Career progress made in the flighting build will carry over to the live build. However, all Career mode specializations are unlocked by default in the flighting build.

Will my leaderboard records in Challenge League transfer when the flighting build becomes the live build?

No, Challenge League leaderboards in the flighting build will always be separate from the live build.

Will progress in other game modes (Discovery, Free Flight, etc.) be separate in the flighting build and live build?

No, only progress in Career and Challenge League are affected. This could change in the future.

Will content I own or purchase in the Marketplace be available on both the flighting build and the live build?

Yes, all content owned or purchased in the live build or the flighting build will always be available in both builds.

New Content and Features

Renamed “Gyro drift” to “Gyro drift compensation” to be more in line with other assistance (ON: Less realistic, OFF: More realistic)
•It is now possible to filter seaplane base airports using the World Map filters
Added SIMVAR_THROTTLE_INPUT_BLOCKED_BY_(LOWER|UPPER)BOUNDS to signal the game when we should show the notification to warn the user an input to the throttle has been made but didn’t actually move the throttle because the lever is locked in the active range (RB + A/B prompt)
This is intended to be used with KEY_THROTTLE_DETENT(NEXT|PREV) and KEY_THROTTLE_RANGE_(INCR|DECR)
- Made all input event parameters editable inside the code editor - making it possible to attach a logger and live edit the code
A validation process has been developed to give more control to the aircraft developer over the Career compatibility.
A new field has been added in the FLTSIM section “targeted_specializations” (supported by the SimObjectEditor) to list the expected specialization with which the given aircraft should be compatible.
- During the ingestion process, the field will be compared to the result of the career compatibility process to confirm its result.
- THIS FIELD MUST BE FILLED TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH CAREER
