In China, the unit of metar wind speed is MPS, which is about twice as long as knot. However, msfs directly treats wind speed as knot. Please fix this bug.

Do you have “Units of Measurement” in the sim set to “Metric System”?
Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
no
Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
At ZGSZ airport, METAR reports 6MPS (11.66Kts)
In the sim, C172 G1000 shows 11Kts, what is correct
I have tried to switch between Metric/Hybrid/US System but it does not change the wind speed unit of measure used by aircraft electronic instruments that I assume is always displayed in Kts (maybe some instruments can be setup with a different UoM)
What I experienced is that wind speed in Live weather is not always steady so the displayed value can vary below or above those 11Kts, maybe that is what happened to you. Could you try at others airports with different reported speeds in MPS ?
