Question Icing

[SadBucketz]

Hello,


I’m wondering whether ASFS live weather injection improves upon the default MSFS 2024 icing simulation.


MSFS frequently produces icing in clear skies, while sometimes failing to produce icing in IMC or rain-type precipitation at below-freezing temperatures.


Does ASFS weather injection address these issues, or is icing still governed by the same underlying MSFS model and its limitations?


Thanks!

ASFS doesn't directly apply ice or additive icing effects in visual moisture. We do set conditions (precip/temperature/clouds) more appropriately in many cases, however, which lead to ice accrual. The underlying MSFS icing model is still in effect, though.
