We sit down with “Not Matt” from Moravia Softworks to talk about building a procedural mission generator for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 based on US Coast Guard operations. We dig into the aviation bug, the realities of shipping software, and why the best flight sim add-ons balance realism with fun.

• catching the aviation bug early and why it becomes lifelong
• building software with an MVP mindset to avoid feature creep
• filtering community feedback without derailing the roadmap
• designing procedural missions that stay immersive and replayable
• partnering with the US Coast Guard and handling trademarks properly
• search and rescue mission ideas from Kodiak to roadside medevac edge cases
• the Blackjack intercept mission around DC airspace and compliance logic
• dynamic AI behavior, scoring, and why the hard problems are worth it
• add-on quality, pricing pressure, piracy, and why free trials rebuild trust
• MSFS 2024 versus MSFS 2020 versus X-Plane and how competition drives innovation
• how flight sim supports real-world training and keeps procedures sharp
