|
|
Has anyone noticed over the years that if you create a flight and don't actually change the time of day setting that it throws at you by default, FS9 starts flights at night more often than not?
Just curious. |

I'll bet you fly more often at night than you fly during the day. I suspect you are seeing more night flights because you don't have your SETTINGS--GENERAL options set correctly. I can't remember how FS9 works. However, in FSX there is a setting called "SYSTEM TIME FOR FREE FLIGHT". I'll bet that FS9 has a similar setting. 8) 8) |

| Interesting, I'll have to have a look for that one in FS9. I rarely fly at night though, so I'm not sure what's going on yet. It's just a bit of a pain if I'm creating a flight and don't pay attention to the 'Season and Time' field...I have to start over most times and select an earlier time of day. :evil: |

| If you are stuck on GMT and use system time and fly only after work or dinner then yes, you will find yourself "in the dark"....lol. |
