A320 Neo TOGA Thrust
 
I have been enjoying flying the A320 within the amazing new Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and have a question abount the maximum thrust setting.

This appears to have been derated in the last update and show 92.8% in the top right of the engine instruments screen. The target bug on the N1 gauge goes to 100% when TOGA is selected but only develops around 94% power at sea level on a standard day.

Is TOGA thrust something that can be altered by the pilot and if not do these settings seem reasonable?

Thanks for any help.

TOGA is simply the max rated thrust under the current conditions, that does not mean 100% N1, but rather the max for the prevailing conditions (temperature, density etc). And no, pilots can not modify it, it is calculated by the FADEC.
