Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching video games. These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation, confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking nearby objects. Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions: • Play in a well-lit room. • Do not play when you are drowsy or fatigued. If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor before playing.

P > ■ d Use a Joystick or Controller For many, it’s easier to fly with a joystick or controller. D Be Gentle Use a light touch on the controls. Make very small movements with whatever control-input device you’re using. D Get Your Bearings Look around and get your bearings by using the hat switch on your joystick or the right stick on the controller, or by pressing NUM LOCK and using the numeric keypad on the keyboard. D Retract and Extend the Landing Gear If your plane has retractable landing gear, raise your landing gear (press G) once airborne. The plane will fly much better. And don’t forget to extend the gear before you land. D Can’t See What’s in Front of You? If you are using the 2-D cockpit view, press W to improve your view by reducing or eliminating the gauges and controls. This does not work if you are in the virtual cockpit view. D Use Flaps Set flaps for more lift at slow speeds while landing (press F6 and F7 to retract and extend flaps incrementally). To learn about flaps, see the “Cockpit Basics” article in the Learning Center. □ Take Lessons from a Friend On the Main menu, click Multiplayer, and then fly over the Internet with a friend. Your friend can act as your personal instructor by sharing an aircraft. n Get Help During Your Flight Some pilots attach a clipboard with flight information to their knee for easy access. Press SHIFT+FIO to display the Kneeboard. The Flight Simulator X Kneeboard provides a quick reference to commonly used key commands and more. To hide the Kneeboard, click in the upper-right corner of the Kneeboard. n Trim Your Aircraft A properly trimmed aircraft practically flies itself. Once you’ve reached your desired altitude and heading, adjust your trim until the aircraft maintains a steady altitude and heading. To learn about trimming your aircraft, see the “Cockpit Basics” article in the Learning Center. n Give Yourself Room When Landing When coming in for a landing, give yourself enough distance to make a slow descent. A common mistake many new pilots make is approaching the airport runway from too high an altitude, and then trying to quickly descend. Instead, plan your approach from a distance and take the time to descend slowly. n Take a Break Press P at any time to pause your flight. INSIDER INFORMATION □ MAKE IT EASY OR CHALLENGING You can adjust your realism settings to make a flight easier or harder.
