From YAACARS 2.1 on you now can suspend a flight, exit your sim, close YAACARS and shutdown your computer.
The flight will stay “flying” within FTW.
To resume your flight, you can load the last position of your plane (this can be done in X-Plane with saving and loading “situations”), get the flightplan with YAACARS and click “start flight” like you usually do.
If you don't have the option to continue flying from where you were when suspending the flight (because not supported by the sim or a specific plane model - or even because your sim crashed and you had to time to save the situation), you still have the option to pick any airport nearby your last location and continue your flight from there. YAACARS will provide the fuel that's left to refuel your plane in the sim and you start your flight as usual.
List of compatible planes for resuming mid-flight from any kind of “save”:
Plane | X-Plane | FSx | P3D |
---|---|---|---|
Carenado Saab 340 | X-Plane | ||
JRollon CRJ200 | none | ||
Flight Factor A320 | Custom |
If you want to see your plane added, just drop me a line!
Here are some ways to find your last known location:
You can have a look at the “Live Flugverfolgung” inside of FTW to see you last position.
You can see your last known location on the YAACARS LiveMap after the flightplan has been loaded into YAACARS from the FTW site.
The X marks your last known location; the plane is your current position
Please remember:
If you want to start over completely from scratch and redo the full flight again, you can “reset flight” data and start from the original departure again!
If anything is not covered here, please me (Teddii) know!
