buzz999 1 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I have found that AI dont take off from Rwy 07, they line up and stay there until there is a bunch of overlapping AI that eventually just disappear. Is this just my installation or is there a problem with my AFCAD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scdl 31 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Disregard runway 07, 99.99% of the time airplanes don't takeoff from that runway... The AFCAD file (LIRF_AF.bgl) needs to be modified and star runways need to be added, in order to obtain the real world runways use, that is:1. Normal conditions: runway 25 for takeoffs (heavies also on rwy 16R) , runways 16L/16R for landings.2. Northerly wind: runway 25 for takeoffs (heavies also on rwy 34L) , runways 34R/34L for landings.3. Strong westerly wind (from 240°-260°): runway 25 for takeoffs and landings.

Max Reverse 344 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I have heard, that the Italien Air Traffic Controllers are on strike until wednesday. ;) To be honest, I don't know. Can you change your settings in the AI traffic tool, or is there a possibility to activate a specific runway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz999 1 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 Thanks for the replies.My current weather is winds from the east so FSX directing all traffic to Rwy 7. I guess my pilots are on strike too,refusing to take off :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scdl 31 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 My current weather is winds from the east so FSX directing all traffic to Rwy 7. In real life, unless the wind is from 060°- 080° with a speed of at least 30 knots (thing that never happens), runway 07 is never used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer MK-Studios 234 Posted October 12, 2015 Developer Share Posted October 12, 2015 Interesting issue, could you send me some screenshots by PM? I'll take a look on that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz999 1 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 Hi, yes I will get some screenshots, just done flight up from Bari and directed to 16R, wind still from same general direction, whereas previous flights from Venice and Palma directed to 7. Will try to recreate scenarios and get some screenshots. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Er!k 572 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Runway 07 is missing a hold-short node in the AFCAD. After adding that, AI will taxi and take-off from runway 07. Indeed also no fake runways are present by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scdl 31 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Indeed no fake runways are present, but can be added with Airport Design Editor, provided you know how to add them. I have 3 AFCAD files, one with rwys 25/16s (takeoffs/landings), one with 25/34s, one with 25/25. I made a small batch file that places the correct file according with the real life wind. The fake runway method works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz999 1 Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 Thanks for that, now just need to work out how to add hold short node. Appreciate it Er!k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scdl 31 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Well, don't waste your time with not realistic runway 07 takeoffs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz999 1 Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 Thanks scdl, I will look at finding Airport Design Editor and see what I can do with the AFCADs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meccadom 2 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 If you alter the AFCAD using ADE, must you compile the changes? Do altering the AFCAD result in loss of objects?Dom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzz999 1 Posted October 15, 2015 Author Share Posted October 15, 2015 Problem solved, many thanks to the developers for updating the AFCAD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
