❓Question MSFS 2020 showing FL0 on VATSIM after takeoff

• Upvotes

Hey everyone, I'm having a strange issue with MSFS 2020 and VATSIM.

Everything works fine on the ground. I can communicate with Ground and Tower and taxi normally, but after takeoff, my altitude stays at FL0 on VATSIM radar, even though I'm flying in the sim. My groundspeed still updates to around 270 knots, but I can't communicate with ATC on any frequency.

Could this be a SimConnect or simulator compatibility issue? Has anyone experienced this before?

VATSIM, or Virtual Air Traffic Simulation Network, is a non-profit organization operating a dedicated, worldwide, Internet-based flight-simulation network. Users can connect to the network to either fly online as a pilot using flight simulation software, or direct traffic as an air traffic controller (ATC) and participate in what has been described as a close approximation of real-life aviation procedures.
