• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Logbook not recording after update

I still haven't figured out how it determines what is and isn't a takeoff and landing. I start cold/dark, fly from point A to point B, taxi to parking, and shut down, and the log still says 0's across the line. I think it wants me to interact with ATC to get credit, but that's crap.
 
Tom, it did not work again. Your experience and reaction resemble mine. Must be a bug needing fixing. Good to know I'm not alone seeing the problem.

That's an interesting thought, but I interact with ATC pretty much all the time (out of habit), and my takeoffs and landings are super inconsistent... pretty cool to have 3 landings with only 2 takeoffs, or vs vs...
 
I've noticed that sometimes as soon as I shut the engine down, the sim automatically takes me out of the flight to my logbook page. This is rare, but when it happens I get credit for the landing. Most times this doesn't happen, and I still get credit for the landing. Other times I don't. Seems very inconsistent. I haven't crashed a plane yet in this sim, but if you look at my logbook you would think I crashed about half of them!
 
I have found a way to get every flight recorded. After making a proper flight, I taxi to an object and crash the plane into it.
I prefer to have the flight statistics recorded to having the crashes shame my record.
