Satellite Map issue
when I am going into this from free flight, picking my routes, etc before actually starting the flight I no longer see many towns that were visible on the map just days ago. anyone else noticing this?

was working fine and then all of a sudden this started.

Ignore the troll.

As for the map issue, I have not. Some city labels do not appear until you zoom in a certain distance, so make sure you're zooming in far enough.

Also, if you use the search feature in the map, it'll hide all other labels until you reset it. Typically if I hit the double arrow switch icon near the ORIG and DEST fields, those labels will then appear again.

thx for the help....I will mess around with it some more, and let you know. I have flown in this area many times in ms 2024, and these small towns always showed on the map prior. not sure what may have changed,

thx again...oh, and believe it or not, I already had that person blocked, lol.

Ok, so I made a very short video showing this. You can see the city of Hartford, and as I scroll South of Hartford, all the small towns that used to be there, Newington, Glastonbury, Berlin, Wethersfield, Cromwell, are now all gone....After a flight I went back to the same area and now even Hartford stopped showing on map. very odd.

Helping someone correct grammatical mistakes is not trolling but you can keep on trolling.

Btw, your skull avatar is way cool dude, lmao!

Have you checked your filters? You should see an option for POIs and Cities should be checked. Screenshot = https://imgur.com/a/2QMf2xj

Otherwise there's another option in Settings > General > Flight Interface > City Markers.. If this is turned off, the names won't show on the map regardless if POIs are checked or not.

Btw is not a word. I think you mean, "By the way". If you're going to harass people about their grammar then you should use correct grammar while doing so.
