With the new client the "World" menu is disabled. I understand this is because someone could be transfered to an airport but the very useful utility of "Map" is also disabled this way. As a result someone who does not want to pay for FSNav cannot know where he is. This is a serious defect.
In addition, what about the weather. Let's say that I start my flight with a complicated full snowing system but later I realise that such weather reduces significantly my framerate in combination with the traffic or the scenery. What can I do? Someone might say that changing the weather is not realistic but who is here for a 110% realism and not for fun? Is time compression realistic? No, but we want it as well.

The "map" is a good argument for the "World" menu. I see the point that there are some pilots who need it, though a "real" professional finds his way without a map
But I think that you should know which weather settings your FS can handle and which not, so you set your weather before the flight and usually don't have to change anything there.
Anyway, I'll enable the menu in the next release and check for drastic position changes myself. Shouldn't be too hard
@BigQ
Is it only 0.3.13b where your framerate drops, or also 0.3.12b ? And are the fps constantly lower or is there a cut about every 10 seconds ?
