Unable to Connect to Flight Simulator #41

I'm guessing this is an easy one, so pardon the dumb question. Why do I get this when I try to connect?

Configuration:

FS2020
fs2ff v.01.1.13

I think firewall settings are correct. I've whitelisted fs2ff.

Thoughts?

I'm also getting an "Unable to Connect" error. FS2FF will not connect within 25nm of a custom airport scenery I've created. It connects fine anywhere else. I'm not sure what in the scenery would interfere with FS2FF's operation. Thank you!

Edit I've determined this bug is a result of too many simobjects for the system to handle.

The SimObject issue seems to stem from using SimConnect_RequestDataOnSimObjectType . Asobo says not to use this simvar for multiplayer clients.
