Coming a short few days after the announcement of a completely separate product by Origami Studios - the developer's other flight sim brand - time has still been found to update SimToolkitPro to v0.6.60.

Despite such a packed schedule, the changelog for the latest version is considerably long, with work on this patch taking up over a month of development time.

"0.6.60 has shipped with a huge changelog too long to list here! It's been the result of a month of internal development and testing and is probably one of the larger patches to date."

The update "coincides with 2 consecutive days hitting 1000+ concurrent flights and 7200+ flights daily."

"This is a big patch and despite ramping up the bug team there could be things that got through the net so please expect minor issues with the it and hotfixes to be rapidly pushed out over the next few days to patch things up where needed!" the developer said on Facebook.

A 'consolidated' changelog was also made available on the group's Discord chat server. It is available below:
