changedSome performance improvements

  • Adds "Intro to Flight" scenario

  • Adds 737 startup checklist. Look for white spinning arrows on the ceiling to find the first switch. White spinning arrows mean you need to set the switch (per the checklist), a green circle means the switch is already in the correct position

  • Adds internal cockpit night-lighting to all aircraft

  • Adds VR keyboard which appears when you tap into a textbox in VR

  • Greatly improves simulator startup speed

  • Video recording now records to MP4, and you can include audio or menus

  • Positional yoke now supports all settings/features that rotational yoke does (under Settings -> VR)

  • Some performance improvements

  • Some improvements to stutter during scenery loading

  • Fixes memory leak which occurs after opening moving map

  • Fixes CPU usage bug which occurred after opening and closing moving map

  • Fixes crashes caused by corrupt texture files

  • Fixes B55 Fuel Flow gauge

  • Adds SDK APIs to parse XML from strings, create strings from XML

  • Adds newer less obnoxious waypoint model

  • Adds wind sound, several sound fixes

  • Fixes several issues with loading stutter

  • Improves speed of terrain loading. Not done yet, but it's harder to outpace the terrain loader when flying fast

  • Fixed several aircraft systems bugs

  • Sim no longer hangs when audio devices are unplugged

  • Helicopters are now properly affected by wind/gusts

  • Several fixes to Steam installation process

  • Adds option so you can choose whether yoke is "hold to grab" or "tap to grab"

  • Adds UDP socket capabilities to scripting.

  • Yoke/collective are now grabbed via "tap on" / "tap off". Click the trigger once to grab it, then click the trigger again to let go. No need to hold it down constently.

  • You can now grab yoke using "grip" buttons on Vive/Touch controllers, which grabs from palm/fist rather than finger-tip

  • Adds setting to disable VR rudder control when grabbing yoke/collective

  • Adds setting to leave yoke where it is when you let go of it with VR controller

  • Adds sensitivity sliders for VR yoke/collective. I find that the helicopters are super flyable using only VR controllers if you turn down sensitivity a little

  • Tooltips/hands now appear at night, but not blindingly bright

  • Ground friction is now proportional to "weight on ground". You can get light on your skids in a helicopter and you won't be stuck in place

  • Propeller and mixture levers now function as multi-grab

  • Piston engine sounds now turn off when engine turns off

  • Fixes turn-coordinator ball bug

  • Improves 717 interaction
