Sim update download

Postby DeeGee » Sun Oct 21, 2018 12:38 am

Installed the simulator but attempting to download the updates, I get an error message every few minutes. The update refreshes and carries on where it left off but progress is painfully slow and time consuming.

I have tried adjusting the download settings and the rate of error messages improves but the download speed is very slow.

I live in a rural area so my internet connection is poor.

Is there a way to download an update file manually?

Hello, there isn't currently an option to download manually, but we are going to consider that as well as anything else we can do to improve the download experience in general.

The one recommendation I'd make is:
Max Concurrent: 1
Max Retries: 50

This won't help much with download speed (we're working on that), but it should greatly reduce the number of errors.

Thanks,
