Dora 2nd stage supercharger no longer switches at 3,000m-3,500m. After the latest update it switches at 4.500-5,000m alt

there's something up with D9 Dora. The 2nd gear supercharger used to switch between 3k-3.5k. That no longer happens until you get to 4.5-5k.  That's .. not right.

I thought A8 would be affected as well, but no problems with Anton.

no track. Fly any map, any mission, doesn't matter.

Might be related — there’s been talk that the altimeter has been broken in the latest update. So it’s possible the indication on the gauge you see when it switches is an error. You could double check with the info bar to see the actual altitude.

Correct. The altimeter is wonked.

At 2k youre at 2,5 indicated. At 3 shes at 4. And at 6 shes 8k indicated....

Compare infobar and altimeter. It increases by a different factor.

Anton and k4 dont seem to be affected.

Ive already reported this but couldnt make a track with comparison of different units.

thank you for the explanation @kablamoman and @Doughguy!  I appreciate it.

no big deviation until roughly 1ooo meters
then it starts to run away
looks right on other planes
the needle for the 100meters seems right throughout +/- the qnh deviation. the disc for the km is off. at 1000 per info bar the 100m needle points right down, which is correct. the disc has already passed the 1k mark.

at 1300 meters the altimeter reads 2300 meters. 100m needs is correct. disc off.
at 2000 it reads 3000. at 2500 it reads 3500.  at 300 it reads 4000.  the higher you go the weirder the readings.
at 5000 per info bar, the 100m reads correct but disc reads nearly 7 k.

I've noticed the same thing.
