Subscribing to SimConnect_SubscribeToFacilities_EX1 works fine, however, facility updates are not triggered reliably. Some airports are missing.
It’s like the radius of the first request is smaller than the distance to the next update.
This only started with SU4 beta. SU3 is still working fine.
Repro steps:
Spawn at an airport and call SimConnect_SubscribeToFacilities_EX1
It returns the expected airports just fine
Use slew mode to move further away
No updates to the reality bubble are triggered for a while. You can move/fly/slew to airports that have not been part of the initial airport list request
When moving even further away, the callback with airports entering the reality bubble will work again
Edit: This issue has been reported by several users, and I was able to replicate it, but not reliably. Sometimes it’s working just fine.
I have reproduced the same. SimConnect_SubscribeToFacilities_EX1 returns expected airports nearby, but as soon as you fly to airports more than ~100nm away it no longer returns anything!
Unfortunately this bug is still occurring in 1.6.16.0

Hi @FlyingRaccoon any chance you confirm whether this is being looked at and/or has been fixed in an upcoming SU4b update?
Numerous very popular third party addons depend on SimConnect_SubscribeToFacilities_EX1 to function.
Just double checking, I know this was not fixed in 1.6.18 yet (I tested yesterday), any chance this was fixed in 1.6.19 released just now? (Or in a later build).
