There could be a bug in the ATC instructions.
Sometimes when I receive ATC instructions, I can’t respond because there are no green respond options.
Yesterday it happened again, during FNF. There were many aircraft and ATC messages were flooding the system. The audio ATC messages were lagging very much.
When I noticed my instructions on screen I hit the ATC button right away, but the green respond options were already gone. It happened only once yesterday.
I can’t reproduce this ATC hiccup.
I hope this can be looked into.

The current and earlier version of IF.
Its not a bug. This can happen if the controller sends 2 messages in a short period of time:
For example : enter left downwind xx, trafic to follow is on final, and close after clear for land…you just can answer the clearance, first respond is gone…
Or
Frequency changed aprroved, than thank you good day…there you cant respond to the frequency change anymore
