alaaar 23 Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Dear Aerosoft, Could you please consider the possibility of adding a pause at TOD, hopefully adjustable on 10 or 20 kts before the actual point? I know that, not having auto-throttle at cruise phase makes it not logical but at a SIM environment it could be useful. If we do have a pause option that I missed at the settings, I apologize Many thanks Alaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LH4371 58 Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 I know this is far from being real but yes I would like that, too, as I am often forced to let my planes fly unattended and right now they sometimes overshoot the destination if I don't get back in time; liked that in PMDGs 737, would love to that in the FBW neo and also the CRJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyByWire128 42 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I have had success using an old FS2002 program to pause the simulator (https://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=iwillbeback.zip&CatID=root&Go=Search). You have to enter in the distance from your current position that you want the sim to pause (so it's not perfectly at TOD), but it gets the job done when I need to walk away...

I was shocked too, but it does work in MSFS2020 (including with the CRJ). I've been using that program with FSX and P3D (which are almost the same core programs as FS2002) for almost a decade, and I thought for sure it wouldn't work with MSFS2020. Imagine my surprise when I tried it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine my surprise when I tried it! Most Programs that use Simconnect are going to work. The only issues are going to be with commands that Asobo did not bring forward with their changes and updates ... ie Camera View System and Pan did not see the linking to the Simconnect commands nor did the G1000 and GPS button commands.... amongst a few others.... Things like Pushback, Pause and many other controls can still use all the legacy simconnect commands... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fab10 34 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 As an alternative, you can monitor your flight AND pause the sim as required on your smart phone or tablet using the following MSFS Mobile Companion App. Interestingly, I too have been using IWillBeBack, though sure that there are other programs, but it gets the job done.

BobbyFuzzy 88 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 @alaaar @FlyByWire128 there is a similar app available for FS 2020. Not exactly what you describe but it may be of interest to you - https://flightsim.to/file/176/fs-simrate-bandit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
