I have already posted a similar bug in a separate forums for the avionics (which got no real feedback) - i though the issue was with the Vision jet, however now that I progressed to the CJ4 after the PC12 i can clearly see its a general fs2024
problem. Apparently the game / stream runs out of memory. Avionics dead. Sometimes manually you can fly. Usually not possible to control engine power afterwards.
I can do quite a lot of flights in a 172 in good weather, maybe 2 in the vision, 1 or 2 on the PC12 in africa before issues start.. and now it seems - none in the CJ4. In good weather. If there is bad weather / cloud cover etc - the avionics on the planes die even before take off.
So far i have not finished a single mission in the last 4 flights due to avionics going black (bad weather in west coast USA for VIP missions apparently). I did make one landing today after i found a clear sky mission, but of course the game did not register the landing (this seems to be a common issue after the update) no matter what I do … Then, the avionics died when i tried to take off again to contact ATC again.
Wasted around 6 hours for nothing. General ATC unresponsivness, step registration .. Its horrible, now even worse after SU1 for me. This is the 2nd landing that was not registered. Flight properly planned, sent to ATC several times, etc etc .. Nope. Oh yeah, usually also get lucky that the cover on the windshield is not removed if i skip to taxi when i start the mission…
Anyway, i know there is no fix for this, i am however asking if someone is actually aware of the state of the game and these memory leak issues on xbox and/or cloud gaming?
P.S picture is after landing in austin (as you can see it is not registered at all), after gotten a new clearence to take off again - plane died once i reached rwy. Dead radio, unresponsive engine. Abort mission.

Yes, the issue can easily be replicated (sorry for not using the template!);
load into the CJ4 (or any complex plane for that case) in cloudy weather and fly (or actually just fly one or two missions in carrer) for the dead avionics.
And actually this happened to me often in the Vision jet in europe (alps). Created a separate topic for that already when i thought its a VJ issue .. but got no real feedback. Now i see its not a plane related issue but a server side issue in this case.
As for the landings - this issue i did read about here already and i do not seem to be the only one. However, i did not find a fix for this besides improvising and taking off again. It seems to be an ATC issue when canceling IFR and the communication hotkeys not registering before landing (contacting the host ATC).
As you can see in the screenshot, the step is green, however i did not hear myself contact the ATC or get feedback from them. Might be worth doing it manually before landing, however this is not that easy on xbox (you have to go in cursor mode and cannot operate the plane while doing it with the joystick - all fine when on AP, but not really when manually flying the approach. Also usually my engines go to full power for some reason while doing this when not in AP mode…). Ahh ..
Anyway, just to highlight again; i am using Xcloud and cloud gaming for this, not gaming on an actual xboxX (the only option i have right now sadly). No addons, no nothing. The game is pure stock as it is on the server.
So I dont have much settings for the game, no rolling cache settings etc .. Everything is server side and i believe this is running on a series S, hence the memory leaks i guess?
Well, this game is a joke, gave it another go tonight and:
1st flight PC12 africa - i get a runway too short for a cessna 172 with bushes on it, aborted at landing (didnt chech runway beforehand, never had issue in africa before)
2nd flight pc12 africa VFR mission - game loads with PC layout instead of XBOX, refresh stream; succesful flight until approach - navionics die, plane uncontrollable (engines stuck)
Restart game.
3rd flight CJ4 in west coast USA, short (700nm) and only mission that shows as VFR/VFR and clear skies, skip to taxi - get dinged for plane moving by itself/ so restart, then fly succesfully 700NM to Aspen, 20 miles out , just before approach - avionics die, plane uncontrollable (engines stuck at 70%). No way to land it.
Its now 5 hours later, i still havent succesfully finish a mission in the CJ4 (ever) and i got zero credits for the night.
What a joy this game brings. Please fix this or remove it from cloud gaming. Or at least acknowledge these issues so we will have some hope it will be fixed.
Im not expecting xbox x raytracing quality here, just a game that works and does not have memory leaks that affect the core gameplay.
