Describe the bug

When going through the preliminary cockpit checklist and starting the APU, the APU doesn't start after pressing the start switch (did press the master switch, waited a few seconds, and then the start button)

To Reproduce

  1. Go through normal preliminary cockpit prep. checklist up to and including APU fire test
  2. Press APU master switch
  3. Wait 3 seconds, then press the start button

Expected behavior

after a few seconds the APU page on the ECAM should show flap open and the APU should start spooling up.

Actual behavior

Nothing happens... even after waiting for several minutes

Additional context

Was this working before/when did the issue start occurring? I haven't used MSFS2020 for a few weeks, so no idea if and when this was introduced Is this a problem in the vanilla unmodded game? No, in vanilla game the APU behaves normally (well, the default Asobo behaviour for the APU)

Your install seems broken. Can you try without anything else in the community folder ?

it seems like its a very old master then, its recommended to update

Local issue for sure I think. Running the latest master and can't replicate this.

after wiping the community folder and re-downloading A32NX the bug has vanished. Probably some leftovers from a previous installation causing the bug. Sorry!
