Added external GPU power support for more aircraft, including an external power switch (with power availability indicator) and improved electrical integration.
Ground Service Equipment updates:
Separate flyout menu for Jetbridges and Stairs.
Jetbridges can now be docked to specific doors.
Stairs can be chosen in addition to jetbridges.
Category C aircraft (A321) avoid L2 passenger service when that door is not appropriate.
Cargo behavior is improved: wide bodies use pallet loaders where appropriate, narrow bodies prefer belt loaders/rear cargo.
Stairs now raise before driving in and extend handrails after docking.
Pallet loaders open the cargo door before driving in and raise their platform to the door.
Catering truck now raises properly on lower narrowbody aircraft.
Added a fuel truck ground service (non functional, just visual for now).
Added What’s New section in menu to show major changes in each update.
Improvements
Reduced game loading freezes and improved load times.
Improved ATC and audio controls:
Separated ATC volume from SFX volume so each slider affects the intended sounds.
Made ATC volume changes apply to transmissions already in progress.
Improved UI usability in menus:
Enabled scrolling in context menus.
Improved handling and readability for long context menu labels.
Bug Fixes
Fixed ATC menu scrolling and submenu interaction issues that could cause input to get stuck or behave inconsistently.
Fixed SimBrief cargo import weights to avoid double-counting baggage/cargo and to distribute cargo more accurately.
Fixed taxiway line polygon counts and made the statistics overlay darker for better readability (Scenery Editor).
Fixed a replay crash when seeking to the end (Sebastian’s first bug fix in the app, everyone congratulate him!)
Fixed cases where multiplayer liveries could fail to load correctly.
Note: Jetbridge Sync support is included in this build but will not be active until we perform some server updates soon. We’ll let you know when it’s live.
We’ve just updated Expert, Training and Casual to add support for Jetbridge Sync. This allows you to see jetbridges docked to other aircraft on multiplayer.
Restart the app for it to be active.
Please test it and let us know if you find any bugs
Added fleet priority ordering for persistent aircraft in organizations, with a clear Active vs Storage split.
Stored aircraft are now visibly marked and separated in fleet lists.
Flying or scheduling a stored aircraft is now blocked until it is moved back into an active slot.
Improvements
Improved graphics/rendering synchronization to reduce frame hitches and improve overall stability during GPU-heavy actions (including screenshot capture).
Improved live onboarding flow in the app.
Improved map tap selection when start locations are visible, making it easier to select nearby airports and navaids without start locations taking over taps.
Bug Fixes
Fixed issues restoring hangared aircraft when the originally saved parking stand is occupied.
Checks stand availability before restore and selects an alternate compatible stand when needed.
Warns before placing the aircraft at a different available stand.
Fixed pavement/taxiway geometry issues that could cause incorrect ground surface shapes in some airports.
Fixed subscription expiration handling so invalid expiration dates no longer appear and Pro status stays in sync more reliably.
Added global elevation data. Terrain is properly modelled now in regions above 60 degrees latitude (think Alaska, Canada, Norway, Russia, Greenland, Iceland) and in Antarctica.
Improvements
Improved elevation model for Sugarloaf Mountain (Rio de Janeiro), Milford Sound (NZ) and in some Caribbean islands.
Fixed jetbridge door option planning so L2 door can be connected with single jetbridge.
Improved autopilot behavior with new tuning and stabilization.
Improved ATC speed assignments so Mach and knots are preserved correctly when using Send & Assign Autopilot.
Bug Fixes
Controls (iOS/Android)
Fixed an issue where accelerometer pitch/roll inputs could interfere with external controller axis bindings.
Flight continuation / resume
Fixed cases where a saved flight continuation could be associated with the wrong flight.
Fixed parking location selection not appearing for some users.
Fixed pilot visibility animations that could cause incorrect pilot scaling/visibility.
Fixed incorrect ground elevation in polar airport scenery in the Scenery Editor.
Updated IFC login flow to reduce number of clicks required for login.
Bug Fixes
Fixed incorrect scenery object elevations at some polar airports, including cases with repeated elevation offsets that caused buildings, jetbridges, and other objects to appear floating or misaligned.
Fixed taxiway routing data not loading when needed, which could affect ground routing features such as pushback checks and Ground ATC behavior.
Fixed jetbridges sometimes crossing or being assigned to the wrong doors during planning and syncing (including cases where two bridges could resolve to the same door).
Fixed an issue where Chinese locale can’t be loaded.
Fixed a black screen that could occur on Android while downloading the extended font pack.
Fixed runway takeoff/approach start locations incorrectly appearing and being selectable on the in-flight map (parking/gate selection behavior is unchanged).
Fixed incorrect elevation handling for tower camera for some polar airports.
