Plane in buggy state after loading save

[alstr]

I completed half a flight today without issue but had to stop before I could finish it. I created a manual save but also left the game paused with the monitor turned off.

When I came back to it, several hours later, I first tried to pick it up from the paused state, but the plane had seemingly lost its current position and I couldn't set POS INIT again.

I reloaded the save instead, but then the route on the PFD had disappeared, as had my location on the Navigraph charts, even though the FMS route was still correctly populated and I could see my location in AviTab and Navigraph Charts externally.

I reloaded again, and this time, I had the route back. Everything proceeded normally until a 'MAIN BATT OFF' warning popped up, despite the battery still being on.

Landed, then tried to get out of the seat, but the camera was stuck in free move mode and it refused to snap to the corridor and go into walking mode. When I tried to set my position via the menu it put me inside the overhead panel, then back to where I was.

I thought I'd try reloading a recent save to see if that would fix things again, but I couldn't reload the last autosave as the button was greyed out. Presumably because it was the 'current state' (technically slightly earlier), but even when I reloaded the aircraft I still couldn't pick up from that.

I reloaded an earlier save, it warned me about loading the position/trajectory, so not fully understanding what the alternative was, I tried loading without, and it put me below the earth with alarms going off.

I'm assuming most of this relates to or stems from leaving the flight part way through. It was all a bit weird. Not really expecting a fix, just reporting my findings.

(Side note, started a new flight, then got caught up in the left hand side of the stairs and couldn't get out without changing position from the menu).
