MSFS2020 aircraft - Pilot attach node cannot be animated

Version: 1.0.88.0

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: High

Marketplace package name: AzurPoly C160 Transall

Context:
AzurPoly Transall in free flight.

Bug description:
As the seats are adjustable on the Transall, our pilot (and copilot) attach node is animated in order for the pilot to “follow” the seat. This works perfectly fine in FS2020.
In FS2024, the pilot does not move with the empty and its scale is incorrect.

Repro steps:

  • Load the AzurPoly C160 Transall (FS2020 package) inside FS2024 Community folder.
  • Launch a free flight.
  • Switch to copilot camera and look at the pilot seat.
  • Move the pilot seat by clicking on the seat base.

Can I assume you LINKED the pilot dummy node to the seat ?
How else would you animate it … With its own keyframes perhaps?

We tried both (pilot node child of the seat or with its own keyframes) and the result is the same.
