I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but the autopilot in the default 737 doesn't seem to work after I reload from a saved flight.

Example:
Load saved flight (737 situations)
fly the plane, use autopilot, etc.
reload the same flight
auto pilot no longer works.
None of its buttons lights up.

It will also not work after reconfiguring the flight or creating a new flight. Goes back to normal once I reload the app.

You can file a bug report here. Provide a copy of the log.txt, the actual situation file you use, and the exact steps you take to see the issue (every single button pressed on the autopilot, etc).

Im also experiencing issues with autopilots. I was flying a 737 and unable to make any button of the autopilot work. I then switched to the MD80 and same result.
Finally i switched to a C172 and the autopilot worked.. However, as soon as the auto pilot is disengaged the airplane starts to roll to the right. I corrected the roll with left aileron trim and could never find a good spot for it. I then observed the trim wheel for the elevator going up and not stopping. So i tried to correct and it would but would then continue to go up again moments later
