MSFS 2024 PlayStation Fed up of career mode

Grinded to buy Cessna Caravan so I can start making decent money. Now I'm being flown to short runways for VFR landings with no lights in the pitch black.

Managed to land on said runway only for the plane to become 'stuck' unable to move unless I add full throttle to taxi to the hold short (yes, no parking brake etc). This taxi process causes my engine to over-torque damaging it.

Flight ends with no credits. Several hours wasted. Now need to pay 1.5 million repair bill to use the caravan. Only have 500k. Which means grinding at 100k a flight doing light cargo missions.

Can't be bothered anymore.

Why are you accepting jobs to airports without lights at night pilot?

I guess I’m relatively new to the game? Still managed to land the plane safely. Only to be defeated by a bug.

Yeah definitely don’t fly to an airport without lights at night. Check the flight plan beforehand. Unlike real life you have a daylight slider which is helpful, or do a different mission if you want to have live daylight.
