  1. Weird, none of my screenshots show up under my flights. Does anyone know if there's a way to debug (options, logs etc.)?
  2. So for you, the screenshots show up under your flight if you take a screen shot during your flight with say Win+Prtsc and have the screenshot directory configured?
  3. I have my sceenshot directory set up, but none of the screenshots I take show up in Volanta. When I manually add a screenshot, it wasn't able to upload it. Am I missing something with how screenshots are supposed to work?
  4. Are these back in a latest MSFS update, or were they never fixed?
  5. Pattern work and airport hops without shutting down are a very common real life practice scenario (I've built more than half of my actual hours that way). How common these scenarios are depends on the pilot type. GA pilots certainly just burn fuel most of the time for practice. Yes. I believe there are relatively simply solutions to these: 1. Either allow multiple landings per flight entry (including the nearest airports), or 2. Split the entry if there was a ground touch, at the middle of the ground roll. For landing challenges: 1. If aircraft changes, definitely start a new flight. 2. If there's a position update that is more than some multiple (say 100x guarding for sim rate) from the previous position based on ground speed, start a new flight (this should cover most if not all repositioning). Maybe my expectation for Volanta are incorrect. Is this a "logging" and "analysis" tool (along with "something to do" in challenges), or is the plan for it to become a flight planner. As a logging tool I'm looking for something cleaner than Little Nav Map (which logs everything correctly), and to keep my route and path as well.
  6. Feedback... Please count a landing/takeoff as a start of a new flight, or at least allow it to be split. For those doing hops or pattern work, it turns into quite the mess. This is even worse if you're doing landing challenges, as it logs as one aircraft even though you may have used different aircraft for different landing challenges. As of version .76 the data quality recorded as a result of these issues makes it unusable. Little Nav Map has no problem with these scenarios.
  7. A couple of questions and suggestions: 1. Will you be able to import your old flights (even with some missing data) just to have a unified log book? 2. I've seen some screenshots that show touchdown rate. This is insufficient information to determine how good your landing was. Please at least records the following: - touchdown rate - touchdown G - heading (how well does this align with runway heading to see how well your crosswind technique is) - airspeed (anybody can land smoothly if you don't land at the right speed) - weight and flaps state (correct airspeed depends on this) - similar parameters for takeoff (liftoff airspeed etc.)
  8. In case my pleas were lost in *dead* threads: KUUU Newport State KANP Lee (Annapolis) KACK Nantucket KMTP Montauk And it would be amazing to get a set of Puerto Rico airports covered (except for TJSJ since there are some commercial offerings): TJCP (this is a heck of a place to get into) TJVQ TJIG TJPS TJAB TJBQ TJMZ TJFA And lastly in the nearby islands: TISX (since there's nothing worthwhile out there for it) TUPW (not sure what can be done with it)
