Hi James,
Thanks for that. I just wanted to report it in case noone did yet.
Cheers,
Vik

I could be wrong but it appears to me that FG will hang if the METAR
server is unreachable. I was using FG while connected to the Internet
via my phone (through wifi). Whenever my phone reboots or connectivity
is lost, FG would produce a square wave pattern on my CPU meter. It
would run for 10 sec and block for 20 sec with CPU use on 0, then run
again for 10 sec, etc. Disabling live METAR data would make this go
away. I presume this only happens if the connection to the METAR server
times out, but would be highly annoying to any user.
Yep, this is known, I'm working on a fix, but the first attempt to commit it
caused other problems - working on fixing the issues at the moment.
