I've actually had this problem several times now but can't assign where it comes from.

Sometimes after I made entries into the CDU like switching waypoints via direct-to or creating own waypoints, the moving map stops moving and the ETA and distance information stays the same.

Every other information like active track or heading is still displayed correctly.

I took the following screenshots the same time and the MFD tells me that I am still 73.5 NM away from the target, even though I am actually almost 3 NM away. The position in the MFD is the one I made the entries at.

It happened to me several times too, I also did not understand when it comes from and what generates the error, sometimes happens to me just after take off if I leave parking brake on, but it's not the source of the problem, since it's not 100% reproducible, just some coincidence I believe, but it's worth to mention.

Its a problem with the currently basic state of the EGI implementation. Clicking EGI1 on and off will update the map but it will still remain stuck at the updated location then. Couldn't figure out yet what exactly triggers this.

Hey all.

Yes the EGI systems are still being worked on. But we need some info on this.

How long until this happens? Does this happen only in multiplayer?

We really need a track whenever this happens because it seems rather random.

Thank you for your reply,

I´ve only recognized it in multiplayer, as I only fly MP but I can do some testing and check it in SP as well lateron. And there is no exact time until it happens, it just even happens or even not. But I can do some testing on this as well and come back to you.

IT happens to me in SP as well. No real clue how to avoid it. Sometimes if i fly a direct route sometimes when EGI pops up…

@Lord Vader

I did some quick testing and as @Butcher59 already mentioned above, it happens in SP as well.

I tried @Rongor´s solution with resetting EGI 1&2 and it indeed just updates the map to my current position and stays there for the rest of the flight (looks like only EGI 1 updates position; nothing happens when cycling EGI 2 only).

I figured out that the map always stops moving when EGI 1 fails to whatever reason. I tried to restore my postion with resetting generators, update my postion by creating a new mark point via the CDU, I shut down the hole aircraft and did a full startup again but the "stuck map" problem remains. I then tried to trigger an EGI failure via harsh maneuvers or hard landings but wasn´t able to do so.

So the question is what triggers EGI to fail randomly during flight and if it is accurate to lose position updates completely without having the possibility to restore it.

Any other ideas?😅

Best sollution for me is,don't touch the EGI, regardless if it is off or on, works since like a charme, no problems since...

Not always, it happens approximately 20% of the time I spent on Rotorhead server. Maybe on second trip or more. 
I have not experienced this offline where most hours are flown. 

I cannot replicate this offline, and I understand a track will not help from a long online session
