Xbox Assistance options keep resetting

XBOX X

Same here starting tonight UK time but was fine this morning ,changes all Assistance to easy,other settings still ok, rather annoying .

I received a mandatory WASM update on the Xbox Series X minutes ago. Once I launched the game, all assistance options were set to easy. However, things are back to normal now. I restarted the sim many times but the assistance options is no longer resetting itself.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OPā€™s steps to reproduce it?

yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

All Assistance settings revert to Easy after quitting each time on Xbox .Worked fine this morning but started this evening .
If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

Yeah this just happened to me also Xbox series x

Does your assistance settings now save between sessions?

After a restart assistance has gone back to easy

Havenā€™t rechecked, as I have only simmed once since the update, but definitely everything had changed to easy after the update. This has never happened to me before.

I have the Xbox Series S and as of 8:00 PM Central time, nothing has changed. Settings still revert back to easy upon game exit.

I did reset my rolling cache upon exit after installing WASM update earlier today, Iā€™m not sure wether that positively affected the assistance options or not but my assists stay right where I leave them, they arenā€™t resetting. I hope things work out for you too.

Itā€™s working now since this morning. Assistance Options are now shown as expected and not changed back to Easy after a restart :tada: Thanks!

@sickboy771752,
Is this working for you now?

Can confirm my settings are saving again. No more resetting!

I have been having the same problem the last few days. It doesnā€™t reset to easy every time but every second time I start the game it does. I reset them back to hard again and apply and save and then sometimes when I start the game again, the settings are back to easy again.

Mine has gone back to resetting to easy modeā€¦sighā€¦

Correct it has gone back to resetting again with each update. This really needs to get fixed because it is very very annoying

Iā€™m on PC, and get it happening quite regularly, once or twice a month. None of the other settings change, just the assistance levels all being reset to easy. Havenā€™t found any correlation with anything (eg update, plane, area, changing settings etc).

If Asobo canā€™t find the cause, it would be good if we could at least save all the current settings to file, for easy reloading if necessary. It is a bore going through the whole list, setting things back to where they were (and usually getting one or two wrong).

Yep, mine does this too.

And then they set it on this topic that itā€™s by the design well whoever did this to put this a default thing shoold get a real close look at how annoyed people get because yeah it gets annoying and frustrating having to continuesly redo your settings. This needs to get fixed no matter if its by design or not it takes the joy out of the sim having to constantly check and redo settings.

Seriously the devs need to fix this, today I was starting a flight and when the flight was loaded all my assistance settings were back to easy again. Come on surely this needs a priority fix and if people keep saying its by design well then they need to fix the design because in the beginning this never was like this.
