Hey all,

Last night I had a weird experience where after I got up around 75k, i was trying to use OrbitMFD to stablize my orbit, and when I clicked PRJ to get it focused on the ship, the whole MFD froze. if I turned them off and then back on, I could get them working again, but they would continually freeze when PRJ was clicked.

Has anyone else seen this? The program seems to have gotten less and less stable the more addons i have running.
 
In the beta or in the 2006-P1 version? I've noticed a little "stickiness" with it in the beta, like you said, the more addons are running.

Though, of course, the more addons are running the more memory is being used, I haven't had the whole thing freeze up, and I have a fair amount of stuff in most of my installs. Though I do make an effort to disable the ones I won't need for my specific flightplan when loading up - because if I load them all, I run framerate hits and CTD risk increases exponentially, too.

Does it do it in all cockpits? How about in external view with the windowed MFD?
 
I've isolated Scenario editor as the cause of it somehow. It only happens when I use the editor to edit the MJD of the simulation. I confirmed this on a clean install, and it locks up in the same way.

Since its a clean install i wonder if others could replicate it. My process is to load the scenario, edit the sim time to a few hours earlier than start. then i open align mfd in one computer and map mfd in the other. If i try to use the zoom button on the mapmfd at that point it will freeze that system.
