Simlink auto disconnect when quitting p3d

Hi, is there a way to make simlink to terminate automatically when I quit p3dv5? (It doesn’t anymora and I have to terminate it through task manager). This was a feature in previous version if my memory is good. Thanks in advance.

Hi…,

Welcome.

Simlink remains after exiting FS for technical reasons. It occupies minimal memory and no CPU load. You don’t need to terminate it, but that is your choice :wink:

If you have FSUIPC it can close the program after exiting P3D just add this command to FSUIPC6.ini

[Programs]
Run1=CLOSE,C:\Program Files\Navigraph\Simlink\NavigraphSimlink.exe

I tried numerous of the FSUIPC options including the one you gave and wasn’t able to get this to close Simlink. Did it work for you?

Cheers
Ian

Hello Ian,

Yes it has been working for me consistently. The lines need to be added manually by editing the FSUIPC6.ini file located in my case in the Prepar3d V5 addons folder under Documents.
Hope it helps.
