Hello all simmers!
This topic is being placed as moderators have rejected a lot of posts to the Wishlist and to help explain why those wishes are rejected.
There is a subcategory on the forum for wishes that you want to see implemented in MSFS (any version). Wishlist
We ask that all members search the existing wishlist before creating a new wish per the guidelines of this this subcategory and the template that is provided so that your wish isn’t rejected. Since the introduction of the approval process, if your wish is rejected, it is because it does not follow the subcategory guidelines and / or falls into of one of the scenarios listed below:
- A duplicate already exists - User did not search before posting
- User is seeking assistance in incorrect category
- The wish isn’t for 1st Party (MS/Asobo)
- The wish is an SDK/SimConnect/API request
- The wish is a bug
- The wish is for the forum (design, category updates, topics, etc)
Remember that some wishes are not dependent on the version of MSFS (2020 or 2024+). However, if your wish is for a specific version, use the appropriate tags (msfs-2020 or msfs-2024) .
All SDK/SimConnect/API requests should be posted to https://devsupport.flightsimulator.com
If your post was rejected and you feel it should not have been, please send a direct message to “moderators”.
If you do find a duplicate wish where moderators have missed, please feel free to flag the wish as “something else” with the link(s) to the duplicate for possible merging. If you do not have the ability to flag, you may also send a direct message to “moderators”.
It would also help if tags were used and an appropriate title for your wish.
One final reminder - don’t forget to vote for your wish after approval! As this isn’t done automatically. And for those who also wish this, to cast your vote! High vote wishes are used on feedback snapshots.
Your help following these guidelines will greatly assist moderators and the development teams to identify wishes for future inclusion in MSFS!
Happy flying!
The Forum Moderator Team
