Well, they say it hasn't been abandoned and I wanted to believe that but, it's been abandoned. Not even asobo could gives 2 turds about this plane. But hey I'm sure IniB will put out a new paid addon soon for the masses to give support to a company that cares only for their $

Any word on a workaround from the devs? Would really help out folks that use the a400 in some of the 3rd party career apps utilize the full payload capacity

Yes please do or add a dataset (lvar?) linked to the payload locked behind the vfs so we can see the true reported payload.

@IniSteve @iniBuilds Team I understand it is mostly beyond your control to push an easy fix for this. So I ask, is there a way 3rd party developers can read this ghost payload the EFB is applying to the aircraft when the payload is loaded beyond 98200kg? Software like OnAir, Neofly, Spad.next, etc relies on reading the payload / fuel values and right now no one can read that the payload is set to maximum due to some ghost payload being applied beyond 98200kg.

Here's screenshots showing how dragging the slider past 196496lbs / 99600kg does not register as additional payload from within the sim using Devmode. First image, no payload. Total Weight: 78600kg. Next, I drag the slider to 99600kg. Notice the Total Weight value of 982000kg. This value WILL NOT CHANGE any further as you increase the payload. This is where the problem is. Now I drag slider to add a full payload to the A400. Take note that the payload never increased despite the fact that I did in fact increase the payload by pulling the slider to the far right. Total Weight is still: 982000kg. Doing some googling, I've seen this is also an issue in other inibuilds airbus aircraft. Can this please be addressed soon. Thank you.

If you want to pass on how they can verify something is wrong, if you watch Live Gross Weight, any value in ZFW past 196496 does not matter, Live Gross Weight remains as 196494lbs and this is why OnAir and other career addons does not see the payload being beyond 43210lbs. I tried creating a temp mod modifying the flight_model.cfg to make this work until someone can take 5 minutes to fix this but the payload value must be located elsewhere. You can follow my steps to reproduce this here. MSFS discord sdk discussion

Apparently it's on both ini and ms list. It would take them 5 minutes to fix this.

So when will it get fixed? If we could have access to the aircraft files we could fix it in a text editor ourselves fairly quickly.
