Chocks, Covers, etc Issue in P3D V4.5

I recently purchase P3D 4.5 When I tried a flight with my MILVIZ C310R I couldn't figure out why the aircraft would not move. I brought up the menu to check if the wheel chocks were removed. To my surprise the popup menu for show pilot, remove chocks, pitot/engine covers showed green, yet the chocks were in place as were the pitot/engine covers. I clicked on all three so they turned red and the chocks and pilot/engine covers were removed. Isn't this working backwards?

Green is Object present, Red is Object Removed

In this case "Remove Chocks" should be "Show Chocks" or just "Chocks".

Pardon me saying so, but I think the bigger question is why are chocks and covers present in the "Ready to Taxi" option. While in the "Cold and Dark" option they are already removed. That just really seems reversed to me. In fact, I think it was the reverse in earlier releases.
Just a thought.

Apologies. Is the other way around. I need coffee

I'm just wondering when this changed because I don't remember having to bring up this popup to remove chocks and covers when the aircraft was started with engines running. I can see that if I selected cold and dark but with engines running it should be ready to taxi.
