It was not often enough to get me so frustrated to the point of thinking, is it worth me even trying to fly on VATSIM tonight? On all 3 flights I lost radio contact at critical moments, on two of those I had to abandon my approach altogether and continue offline, on one occasion no matter how many times I tried reconnecting, it made no difference, and the other time xPilot closed altogether without warning. I am running X-Plane 11 on Ubuntu 20.04 with the latest update of xPilot I would post the log file here, but after last nights shut down I just set it to record fatal errors, just in case it closed again so I would hot have to scroll through hundreds of thousands of lines, but on tonights log there was nothing out of the ordinary, I may just set it back to debug log mode. Edit: Just occurred to me next time I should probably try closing Xpilot altogether then try restarting it. Simple solutions like this just don't occur to me in critical situations though. Also can I say this post was made in the heat of the moment, and realise xPilot is still in beta with ongoing developments so bound to be a few issues, I was just feeling a little frustrated.
