Planes autopilots are not respecting target altitude
Especially in Vertical Speed mode the autopilots of all planes (as far as I could notice) are not respecting the target altitude. Before someone tell me I'm doing wrong, that's what happens: I select the target altitude with the altitude knob, I press VS and select the rythm of descent in ft/min (for exemple) with the Auto Pilot Master ON, so the plane starts to descend and when it reaches the target altitude it simply continues to descend. When you're a lone pilot busy doing a lot of things in the cockpit especially near the approach phase you gotta trust that the autopilot is going to perform it's functions properly or your flight becomes a mess. I really like Xplane physics and even graphics styles and so on, but these annoying bugs are starting to make me get really disappointed with the sim.

It works fine. Ensure that ALT SEL is engaged. It will not capture the selected altitude unless it is.
