Help Icons
Beside the question mark in the title bar you will find such little help icons all around in the program.
This allows you to access context-related manual topics directly.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020
FS-FlightControl also supports Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 since the first public release of this new simulator.
But there are at the moment some limitations as certain functionality is not yet supported by the FS2020 SimConnect SDK:
- Weather cannot be controlled from outside the simulator yet. - Slew mode cannot be controlled from outside the simulator yet. - Directly send a flight plan to the simulator is not supported yet.
As soon as those features get added to the FS2020 SimConnect SDK we will make sure to support them with FS-FlightControl shortly thereafter.
