Own aircraft not visible on vatsim traffic

Simulator Version

MSFS 2020

Operating System

Windows 11

Description of the Issue

My aircraft simply isnt showing up on vatsim traffic, my simlink is running and working but whenever i use the vatsim taffic feature my aircraft just dosent show, i see everyone but mine

it will occasionally show up then disappear

That’s on purpose, to avoid confusion: your aircraft would otherwise be depicted twice (once as VATSIM traffic, once as Simlink “traffic”) and most people will think there is a second plane very close to theirs, as opposed to a double depiction of the same aircraft.

Then why didn’t my friend also see me on the charts app?

That is not intentional, indeed; if this happens again, please make note of the date, time and location of your aircraft on VATSIM and share it here.

There may be a way to gather some logs that could help developers investigate the issue better but I do not remember the correct procedure off the top of my head, sorry.

Regards,

Tim
