The header says it all really. Turning off “Unlimited Fuel” in the “Aircraft Systems” menu within “Assistance Options” leaves me, in any aircraft I fly, consuming no fuel during flight and unable to operate the fuel quantity sliders: more accurately, I can operate them, but a few seconds later they return to where they started. In effect, although “Unlimited Fuel” appears to be turned off, it remains in force.
Is there a configuration file somewhere under the bonnet that I can edit dirtectly to resolve this problem and properly disble the “Unlimited Fuel” setting
I have the same issue, so far only tested on SW Kodiak during multiple hops ending at the starting airport still have the same amount fuel as when I started.
My settings says unlimited fuel is turned off and I can see the quantity drop slowly but not the % slider that’s always at 50%.
It’s taken a while, but it turns out the solution lay in control assignments.
It seems that when initially setting up MSFS I’d set “add fuel quantity” to a button on my Warthog HOTAS throttle that was then left in the “on” position. Removing the assignment removed the problem and prevented its recurrence.
