Developer mode - Replay activated
`Brief description of the issue:
Hi all, I just want to share some feedback regarding the REPLAY feature.
I tried it a couple of times and found some bugs about it:
-
First of all, in a classic FSs (like 2004) you were capable to manipulate the views as you want during the replay of the segment. Currently in FS2020 Replay feature, you can not do this by default, flight is recorded together with your camera during this flight.
-
You can change your camera, to have a look from a different position, but for this, you need to start recording camera track, which is not handy in my opinion. Sometimes, for example, you just want to see your landing from a different point of view, but to do this in the current set up - you need to start to record camera track.
-
The most important, if you started to play with the camera, there is a bug when during recording the camera track you press stop at the replay player - you are actually leaving replay mode and start to control the play again from the moment, when you pressed this button. So you are not going to the end of the replay (as it should be done), you start to control the plane exactly in the moment, when you pressed stop. In addition, in this case, top menu becomes unavailable for you, so you can not contact ATC, or check the map, checklists and etc any longer. You need to restart the flight (or to do the Save/Load) to make the top panel come back. But in my case, if I do Save/Load after this (and if the plane was in the ground) it loads my plane but with the gear in UP position, so actually my plane is lying on its engines in this case.
So I just wanted to share this experience, and maybe there is anyone else who has another issues with replays.
