Landing light issue
-
I set the landing/taxi light switch to the up position prior to taxi. I then put the switch in the down position after takeoff. I don’t change the switch position until final approach.
But I find whenever I go to change switch position on approach it’s always already in the up position. I have verified that it’s down when coming off the target, and I have no reason to mis-click in that area between egress and approach, certainly not every flight.
This is also before the gear is extended.
I can’t think of another logical reason for the change in the lights position, but I would be glad to be corrected, as it’s puzzling me.

Before the gear is extended, which answers to my first hypothesis.
Second hypothesis, keyboard or HOTAS callback.
My switch doesn’t move before I extend the gear.

I have a similar issues since 4.33 and I have checked my keyfile etc and can’t find any reason for it on my end. Not saying it’s a bug, but I can’t pinpoint the problem on my end.
Are you flying multiplayer? I have weird issues sometimes that my pit seems to reset som stuff (mostly landing light & altimeter goes back from 1013 to QNH by itself) after someone exits 3D world. -
This is in single player campaign.
I will check settings later, but I don’t think I have anything mapped to that switch.

I have noticed that too. Single player.

Did you request landing from ATC, I think when runway lights come on landing light also comes on. Not too sure on this will have to check. Just found a post on it, have a look https://www.benchmarksims.org/forum/showthread.php?24594-taxi-light-automatically-switching-to-on

That might explain it. I notice that issue was first raised in 2015. Are there any plans to address it in a future update?

No idea i’m not a dev but perhaps a dev can reply on this one.
