Well...there's stuff that might not work as expected...

Aircraft Labels on Main Monitor only

In case of labels show on the main monitor only ().

They do draw in a windowed simlulator session, no matter how large that window is, even if it stretches across multiple monitors.

Aircraft Labels align with Screen, not with Ground

If you apply a Roll rotation offset to your main screen in your Graphics settings, then you will notice that aircraft labels align with the screen, not with ground, ie. labels appear tilted. This might be especially noticeable in a networked setup, in which the synchs traffic to networked computers, which drive External Displays.

VR: Aircraft Labels appear in one eye only

The labels appear in one eye only. Funnily, some say the right one, some say the left one...but it is consistently one eye only. This has to do with the special way text is rendered in the 3D world, which is simply not meant to use text. Text is a UI thingy, not a world thingy.

If you prefer not to see labels under these conditions in VR views, then there is an , which allows you to switch off labels in VR views.

Windows: Configuration File reduced to Zero Size

On Windows only, it sometimes happens that LiveTraffic's configuration file <X-Plane>/Output/preferences/LiveTraffic.prf is reduced to a size of zero. On next startup LiveTraffic will apply defaults and inform you:

"LiveTraffic's config file had zero size, continuing with defaults! Sorry, you'll need to re-enter any credentials in the ."

It is advisable to keep a backup of your credentials or even the entire configuration file.

TBM900 crashes

Users crashes in plugins of the TBM900 plane while running LiveTraffic with TCAS on.

Workaround: Switch TCAS off.

This is confirmed not to be related to how LiveTraffic deals with "empty" AI slots (i.e. temporarily not used positions of the up to 19 configured AI planes). It also happens if LiveTraffic delivers just a zero position as X-Plane would do. Also, similar crashes occurred without LiveTrafic at all but with X-Plane AI on. So ultimately, the TBM900 needs to be fixed.
