| I like to start all my flights Cold & Dark so I can go through the correct startup proceedures and FSFS doesn't appear to like this as it detects the electrical system is inoperative when the flight starts and reports this as a failure on the flight log (I also get a OH OHHH from the instructor). Does this detract from my flight scores or can I just ignore it? Obviously it would be good if future versions of FSFS could detect or had a setting for cold & dark starts. Pie.

Cold & Dark is an interesting point and one that we will look at in the development department. If the user were to indicate that the flight is starting this way then a whole host of features could be coded around that fact, including a different handling of the reporting the failure you described. For the time being, rest assured that this will not detract from your scores - this aspect (failures affecting scores) is something we are bringing into FSFS, but it is not in effect yet.

| I'm glad that this has given you something to think about, and perhaps an interesting new feature for a future version of FSFS. In the meantime to get round the problem I just connect FSFS to FSX in flight when engines are running, all systems are live and I'm ready to start taxiing.
