Description of the Issue
I am experiencing an issue where Navigraph Charts only tracks my flight path smoothly when the desktop application is actively in focus as the main window. The moment I minimize the app or open another window over it, the map stops updating. When I bring Charts back into focus, it simply draws a perfectly straight line from where I left focus to my current position, missing all the data points in between.
What I have tried so far to fix it:
- Verified Navigraph Simlink status panel, which explicitly confirms: “Broadcasted flight data to server successfully” with live coordinates updating.
- Performed a deep reset of Simlink by deleting the
%appdata%\Navigraph\Simlinkcache folder and re-linking my account. - Ensured my Windows system time is completely synchronized via internet atomic time.
- Signed out and back into the Charts desktop app to refresh account and session tokens.
- Toggled the “Enable Moving Map” crosshair icon off and on to break local loops.
- Switched the simulator graphics settings to Borderless Windowed mode to prevent full-screen app suspension.
Despite Simlink successfully sending data to the cloud servers in the background, the desktop viewer application itself completely drops its network sync the second it loses window focus. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!
