FLT Files fail to load in, or slow

[MSFS 2024] Bug Reports

Frequency: Frequently
Severity: High
Bug description:
Ive noticed that .flt Files fail to load or load in slow.
My plane use custom propeller physics, engine cooling simulation.

  1. When spawning in the hanger I set and Lvar that disables the propeller physics to prevent any weird things. In FS24 you can see the propeller spinning.
  1. When spawning on the runway I set another Lvar to make sure that the plane is warmed up. After 5 seconds I let my simulation take over.
    Every time ive spawned on the runway in FS24 the engine have been cold, yet the lvar is set, showing that its slow or late.

Hello @MrTommymxr

Can we consider this one fixed?
I tested the version you sent to @PrivateContent on 1.1.10.0. Propeller was not spinning in “Configure menu” and your START_HOT Lvar was set to the expected value when starting a flight.

Thanks for testing.I guess.
I still have the feeling that the lvars are loaded after the plane, and not before like in fs20.

I will reconfigure my plane to simply warm up the plane if the lvar is set later than expected

So one thing i just tested.
In FS20 when the aircraft is loaded:

  1. Fuel is loaded in in the menu
  2. When starting the flight, XMLs refresh.

My planes look for the default 50% fuel loadout and then sets a different fuel load. This is because the DA42 is normally flown with full main tanks and empty aux tanks. If someone sets a different fuel loadout then the fuel isnt changed.

In FS24, the fuel is set multiple times. This means my fuel loads get overwritten.

Should i make a new ticket for this?

Hello @MrTommymxr

Possibly another instance of the issue reported here?
Aircraft start with almost no fuel on MFS24 - [MSFS 2024] Bug Reports - MSFS DevSupport

Taxi.flt is now loaded when starting a free flight from the runway and can impact the fuel load configuration.

Ill try using the camera state to delay whatever i need to do.
