GA Traffic, approximative release date
-
@Mark While testing this GAmod, I hit the problem of airport addons with inappropriate aircraft spots definitions, which result with small GA aircrafts to be placed on commercial aircraft positions, which is obviouly bad ! Even crippling would I say !
I really hope that future GA feature of FS Traffic, will have a possibility to avoid these problems by excluding these spots or even the whole airport !
If not, will the GA feature be almost optional ?
@ACSoft The issue with incorrect gate sizes/types in most (if not all) default MSFS airports is an issue we have found too, and it is actually one fo the main reasons why we haven't added a freighter expansion to FS Traffic just yet. However, we are hopeful that the upcoming MSFS World Hub may solve a lot of these issues over time.
Regardless of the gate issues, we have implemented additional methods in the GA Traffic expansion to ensure that GA traffic is only generated at, or flies to, appropriate airports. We'll share more information about the expansion and its full feature set at a later date.
The FS Traffic GA Traffic expansion will have its own dedicated Control Centre app, so the GA traffic and airliner traffic will be able to be controlled and enabled/disabled independently of each other.

Dear @Mark, this is great news especially if we can fine tune this kind of problems, without the need to fully disable the airport (stock or 3rd party) or worst, to fully disable GA traffic feature itself.
@ACSoft Our aim is to release the FS Traffic GA expansion in a plug-and-play state, so it'll be set up in a configuration that works across as many airports as possible. Then with the Control Centre app, we want to provide plenty of options to allow users to customise the traffic at each airport.
We've got lots of exciting features in the works, so we have a lot to share once the time comes!

Could you give us a general idea of what GA aircraft we can expect? It would be awesome if a Gulfstream model is included.

@Supersym Why was you dissapointed? Havent heard unsatisfied users until now. Upcoming update included possibilty to refuel you jet fighter with a tanker. And acrobatics also included. Have a test, you wont be dissapointed.
because of that :

@Corsten, it is not only if 3rd party airport "is badly presented". If you take the case of my example case of Simvol LFKJ, it is "GA medium" spots which are prioritized (chosen) to place obviously "small" aircraft, when you have a lot of empty "GA small" spots.
Now, even if I am a former FS-2004 dev, I have no knowledges at all about programming for MSFS 2020. I decided to not plunge in this much to much complex mess (SDK) to my taste ! I can only hope that young devs like you, can found clever solution to overturn these kind of problems !
