Stutters, low fps, with flpln

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

To keep testing the stability of the Sim in SU 5.1 Beta I’ve tried to use Simbrief to give me a realworld flightplan which I then copy & paste into the flightplanner (web).

The route is: EHRD (RTM) to GCLP (LPM)

Before starting the flight (cold & dark) I use the EFB to load the flightplan, configure load and fuel and load that all in before pressing ‘start flight’.

Once loaded into the sim, the game is very stuttery. Camera seems to move like the game runs on 5 to 10 fps.

when checking the efb, I saw that the flightplan had a few waypoints that were like 2000, 3000 or even 4000 nm away from their previous waypoint, which would be weird. I deleted these specific waypoints, manually insert them again, and as I deleted the ‘error’ waypoints the sim seemed to stabalize to its better SU4 manner. Making the sim run silky smooth, and loading everything from EHRD to GCLP without any problems.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

How often does this occur for you (Example: Just once, every time on sim load, intermittently)?

Everytime I loaded in the specific flightplan

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Use this flightplan Flight Planner

  2. Load the flightplan into the sim to ATC.

  3. Now as the Sim seems to stutter a lot, remove the Kovin, ABUPI and INKIT waypoints from the flightplan in the EFB

  4. Sim should now run smoother

A long pause can cause extremely low frame rates and stuttering!

I did not pause the simulator during any of this. I’ve had it happen once on the SU4 build, but that was because I had to suddenly leave.

I always let the sim run, without any pause in between :slight_smile:

I have had missions load with waypoints thousands of miles away. There is a thread for this somewhere, sorry I can’t recall which - EDIT:- found it, see link. Could I suggest that if it was a simbrief FP that you report it in the Navigraph website. They may not know about it.
This would have caused your mission to crash as “too far off your route” message or some such upon which you will get an instant mission fail - even if the magenta line is showing the correct route. Yep, it’s nuts but it does happen.

I will try to let navigraph know.

However this all happened in free flight, not in career mode.

Yes, I don’t think it matters. It might not even be them but the more teams we inform something might be done.
Thanks for doing that :+1:

PS5 / EDDF Ground / A330 inbuilds / PS5 / live weather + live traffic on medium - all graphics on ps5 max

Planning my flight to LGIR and send flightplan to ATC by the standard EFB from microsoft. seconds after that, avionics issue followed by black screens.

Yes, I’ve had similar routes with plans generated by the EFB itself (i.e. not Simbrief). This has not happened for about a month, though, so maybe it’s fixed for me.
