I wish someone would turn off autobrakes, wing lights, strobe, window heat, pitot heat, weather radar, engine start switches and flight directors whilst I am enjoying taxiing to the terminal. But alas, I too am alone in the cockpit.

Ah - ok. I have noticed this, too. Sometimes it takes a few minutes for the light-level to register... The whole thing is somewhat of a mystery to us (and the staff at Laminar Research, too). First, the "LIT" texture in the cabin should not cast light on the cockpit in the first place - even if there was no backwall or door to the cockpit at all. It is not a dynamic 3D light...so we have no idea why it does that. Second, no one has any idea why it takes a few minutes for X-Plane to register the new light-level. The good news is that we are planning to add a better 3D cabin with 3D lights in a future update - at that point I hope that these problems will go away. For now my workaround (if you suffer from the time-delay) is to simply leave the Fasten belt switch to ON. Cheers, Jan
