That's correct. X-Plane is a simulator that only allows so much data and access to plugins. Since we (or Frank) do not CREATE X-Plane, we do not have all the access to variables in the sim as a plugin that Laminar does as creators of X-Plane. IF Laminar changes this in the future you can bet that we too will make a change. The goal is always to make SkyMaxx Pro as best as it can be. We have done A LOT to this plugin since the first day it was released, and all in 100% free updates. We won't waiver from that course, but it takes cooperation on multiple fronts. It's very similar to water. We'd love to create a proper ocean/lake/river add-on. Even though Laminar can simulate it themselves, we can't because all the access we need in the SDK to get it done is not shared with plug-ins. I regret that this is the answer, but, we take what we can get, and often times we make good on our word.
