MSFS2024: Not sending SimStop when leaving for the main menu

[MSFS 2024] Bug Reports SimConnect
1

Version: 1.1.9.0

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: Low

Context: External SimConnect client using SubscribeToSystemEvent

Bug description: The sim doesn’t send any indication that the simulation has been stopped, for example when leaving for the main menu.

Repro steps:
Subscribe to “SimStop” and “Sim”, you won’t get either indication when leaving for the main menu. The sim only sends a “Pause”.

I’d like to suggest an increase in the ‘severity’ from low. For a classic simconnect application such as a logger in 2024 it’s currently not possible to detect when the log should be written to file and the logging re-initialized (i.e. on the exit to the main menu) vs. when the logging should be simply paused & continued when the player un-pauses.
