Traffic Global for X-Plane 11

Yup I agree with you, a user definable option for this would be a nice addition.

So i read today there has been at least one substantial update. What does this mean exactly??

"- Change runway flow rules to basic X-Plane rules - first flow, first runway."

Will there ever be an option where as the pilot flying can choose the airport flows on the fly?.

Thanks, Dave

I saw this and got curious. When I loaded up at KSAN (MisterX6 freeware) I had a total of four planes. I opened my settings up and turned OFF the dynamic density when I did that the airport populated with planes. Turning the setting back ON didn't remove the planes. My FPS is quite good 60+ at start and 52-54 when I messed with the density setting. I am going to disable the scenery to load up the default and check that as well to give you more information. Checking the default in WED shows me only 15 spots to park on, not enough to 'populate' the airport at all.

EDIT. It occurred to me that I left out an important fact. when I first came down to KSAN, I did it from another airport. I just restarted the sim at KSAN with the MisterX6 scenery on, and it populated appropriately. Just speculating but it seems like the plugin is not registering the location change to trigger a reload of the DB

If you ever get any sort of crash with any program your best bet is to raise a ticket with JF support and we can get dump files etc from you and investigate.

We have made some notes about this in the release notes for the update and it's an area we are still working on. The note file should have opened after installation:

Known Problems

There are still known problems with AI behaviour in various situations, but most particularly on initial start and after using time-shift in X-Plane. In both cases they should sort themselves out quickly.

AI flying characteristics will be changed in a future update.

I've been watching the take offs at 2 airports over 2-3 hours or so and its not changed, how long exactly does it take for it to sort itself out, because it doesn't seem to be fixing itself.

also there is a bug on the flight path window, if you click yourself on it and click w it disables the mouse pan, it locks it and won't let you pan your view by holding right click and moving you mouse, if I disable global traffic I can pan my mouse again.. soon as I turn it back on again it locks the pan view again.

This one was kclt 515pm

Hi

Got some time to test this further, on my 2 pc's, 1 can see the aircraft on the other, but not vice versa. When I disable Traffic Global, the multiplayer aircraft appears, then if I enable Traffic, Traffic works again, but the multiplayer is still visible...so it does seem to be possible after all!

If you contact JF support we can get the full dump files and see what is causing it.

There is a good tutorial on setting TCAS here:

@Derek Thanks Derek. Will do.

Thanks for the feedback.

Start gate - not sure if others have mentioned this. Will add that to the list of stuff to look at asap.

Aircraft movements are on the list to modify and we have also had some reports of smoke effects doing odd things on some aircraft so that's also due a fix.

@jetset Hi, my FScloud plugin was blocking the TCAS operation so I removed it and now everything is working fine.

The BA C-KDPJ (A319) started up his engines then did a 360 and taxied out, no pushback. I started up WED and found it had 1 taxiway along the length of the apron, so installed lead ins to the parks on all gates. The aircraft now pushes back correctly, presume from this that with correct taxi network installed, less bugs with the AI behavior meaning that airports well be better with a proper taxi networks ? Also if there are parked aircraft in the scenery package the AI will not hang when taking short cuts across the apron as I have noticed.

@jjaycee said in Aircrafts without liveries and in white liveries:

I like the way Traffic Global works, but it has been released way too early. The number of white aircraft without liveries is unacceptable. The customer should not be responsible for doing liveries unless they are very specific ones wanted by the user.Please confirm that you will be releasing many and frequent updates specifically regarding additional liveries.

I've discussed that on this thread:

https://community.justflight.com/topic/486/where-can-i-get-missing-liveries

As I say, we may add a few more and update some like Thomas Cook, but, as far as the base pack is concerned, we think there is a very good selection (over 800!). As per the thread above, the chance to view unpainted aircraft is a feature asked for by users that want to repaint their own aircraft. Much like the paintkit in an aircraft package.

I apologise to you as I had not read the manual. I am now aware that I can remove the appearance of Substitute (white liveried) planes. I was really complaining about the white planes showing up at airports which gave the impression of limited liveries. Now I have read the manual I have deleted the Substitute planes option and don't see any white planes.
I apologise again for a typical User Error scenario. I really like the efficiency and fps friendly operation of Global Traffic, which I find far superior to other XP AI offerings. Well done. It has livened up XP.

@Iain It should be fixed in the coming update. That should be some time this week, sooner rather than later we hope.
