Loading generic cargo and in-game W&B menu

[Markhlam]

Hi!

If I understood well from the tutorial videos, selecting any cargo type different from generic will automatically assign a weight and distribution.

But what happens if I choose generic cargo? In the EFB, I can set a value in the Planned Cargo and transfer it to the Current Cargo by Applying the Load. However, the box Cargo in the bottom right corner always shows 0, no matter what I set in the sliders, and the cargo configuration is never transferred to the in-game Weight & Balance menu.

Is that correct? Are the weights correctly applied anyway? Is that a bug? Do you plan to have the weights for generic cargo displayed in the in-game menu?

Thank you!

I was noticing the same thing too, using the generic cargo type and manually setting pax and weight didn’t seem to do anything after hitting apply. The in game weight and balance menu didn’t reflect any changes regardless of weight settings.

Heya!

Yeah, the weights still correctly apply. While you can use the insim W&B menu to also change your weights, the changes made in the EFB won't reflect back into said menu. Whatever you see on the "Current Load" is what is loaded 🙂
