[AES 2.13 available]

Oliver;

I noticed that the list of airports says the new Anchorage-X is three credits, but it's charging only two credits when activated.

[Panel interaction with AES ground support]

Hi Oliver;

Is it possible, or could it be possible to expose an LVar that a panel could read to determine the presence of the fuel truck? What I'd like to do with my (freeware) aircraft is add a gauge that re-fuels the jet according to a pilot-approved dispatch sheet when the AES fuel truck arrives. Even better, if there were another LVar that could be set by the panel to hold the truck there (until the refuel is complete) that would be wonderful. That way the truck appears via the normal AES request, the panel detects its presence and sets the "hold" var while the fuel upload occurs according to the dispatch sheet, and then the panel resets the hold var to 0 and the fuel truck can depart per normal.

Is that something you'd consider doing? I think that some exposed vars to determine state of certain AES events would provide some interesting development possibilities...for example, I could program the nosewheel to turn if I can detect that the tug is connected while turning during a pushback.

Cheers

Well, the happy ending is that TropicalSim sent me the updated scenery, so it's all sorted now.

Thanks for the quick support Oliver.

Then you must check, if you have the correct version: http://secure.simmarket.com/tropicalsim-daytona-beach-intl-airport-(en_3582).phtml

The files of my version have a date around 20 February this year

TropicalSim has a standalone version 2 of their KDAB scenery...apparently they are still selling an older version of the KDAB scenery as part of their Carribean scenery bundle, which is what I bought from SimMarket in May 09. Might be a good idea to highlight "V2" in your compatibility list. I will take up the problem with selling outdated software directly with them.

Please check, if the airport is correct shown in the Scenery Library List of the FS9 and if you could found a file kdabx_gate1.bgl in the scenery directory of that Airport Addon.

Hi Oliver;

The airport is in the scenery list, but there is no kdabx_gate1.bgl file. I see three jetway-related bgl files...kdabjetway1.bgl, kdabjetwaystat.bgl, and kdab-intljetway.bgl.

Is it possible the kdabx_gate1.bgl is only in the fsx version of the scenery (hence the "x" in "kdabx_..." ?

I have TropicalSim's KDAB installed in FS9, but the AES Airport Activation Menu doesn't list it as an installed airport. If I uncheck the box "list only installed airports" it's in the box in red.

How do I activate it under those circumstances?
