The spoilers generally only auto deplay if you tell them to.
Via keyboard there is 3 positions, retracted, extended and armed.
The / key will switch between extended and retracted.
Shift + / depending on your aircraft will auto arm the spoiler to deploy when there is sufficient weight on the undercarriage.
They will retract if you blip the thrust levers as you would to cancel reverse thrust.
You can use mouse on some aircraft and partially deploy before touchdown.
If you do use it, get used to approach with half spoiler, that way you can retract is landimng short and extend if long.
It's the gliding technique, not sure how well it would be in jets.
The vulcan has halfway spoilers via a switch.

May the Mynd be with you.
So far my number of landings either passenger or pilot equal my number of takeoffs.
