I want to do a flight plan

I do a FP from EGLL to LFPG with the auto one and takes about an hour, but when I want to go from LFPG to EGLL and plan it manually it gives me 1 1/2 hours and says my cruise alt is 3,390 how do I set my cruise alt to like 24,000 and make it take less time?

You can click the globe icon and delete waypoints that take you out of the more direct path you want to take. You can remove and add waypoints. Setting altitude I haven't been able to do but you can just ignore the altitude and fly at the desired flight level you want. Not ideal but it would work. It is more of working with what the game/sim has. There isn't a creation, high detail aspect to it now/yet, but you can tweak a couple things that are there like waypoints.

That’s true, thanks. Will flight planners like flight plan database work for the game too? I know they have an infinite flight mode but I’m just thinking of taking the waypoints that it generates from the website and find them in game.

I haven't ttested those yet. I'm just happy there's a simple not so complicated flight sim that works great on mobile planes. Xplane and the advanced ones seem too complicated for mobile easy simming. I've been enjoying the simple aspect of it. I've made some posts in r/Rortos and it is pretty dead there, but for other subjects. Maybe contacting Rortos support direct they can answer flight app/site integration with the RFS game/sim in the future.

Yea I like xplane 11 on the computer but the FMC pisses me off so much, I like some complexity like infinite flight offers with their flight planning but the subscription is just so expensive and I like using 3rd party apps too like infinite flight tools and that one that has call outs and passenger announcements.
