Hi Carson,
The default C172 autopilot models a specific autopilot and disables any of
the more fictitious built in FlightGear autopilot features. So with the
C172 autopilot you are out of luck and stuck with only the features that the
real autopilot provides. However, many/most other aircraft just use the
FlightGear defaults which means the route following will work for them.
Regards,
Curt.
