LYNXTracker Beta 4.4 - Aerolynx Design and Reliability

New Features

• Closing the Windows X button hides ACARS to a native branded notification-area icon by default; double-click to restore and right-click for Open, Flight Status, Check for Updates and Exit
• Explicit Exit confirmation during a prepared or active flight, with installer/update shutdown bypass
• Prepared flights can be checkpointed before simulator connection and recovered after application restart for the matching pilot and airline
• Remote simulator address and enablement persist across restarts; pairing key uses brand-specific Windows Credential Manager
• Aircraft picker has an explicit Save Aircraft to Bid action independent of Start Flight
• AeroLynx Website Style Guide blue-gray and cyan restyling across dashboard, login, My Bids, Flight Dispatch, settings and modal dialogs; gold reserved for highlights
• Website ACARS portal styles match AeroLynx cyan/dark-panel design; dashboard OpenStreetMap remains compact and expandable

Improvements

• Delta keeps Typical Subfleet selection and its existing map sizes; Aerolynx keeps flight-subfleet assignments with same-airline fallback
• Airline-specific accounts, recovery files, credentials and software update channels remain independent

Known Issues

• Unsigned Windows QA preview; must be signed on an authorized Windows Azure Artifact Signing machine before any public distribution
• Windows-native tray/SimConnect/X-Plane, restart recovery, pairing-key persistence and real phpVMS staging regression flights remain to be tested
• This update does not add direct VATSIM/IVAO automatic prefile form population beyond the existing pilot-review workflows
• The portal-only patch does not upgrade the phpVMS server module or its update endpoint
