    Just had a flight from ENGM to EDDH. Plenty of parked and moving planes at ENGM. EDDH empty. It's getting really frustrating and it is ruining the experience. This time I forgot to enter EDDH in the in-game panel. But it was entered both in MSFS planning menu and in the FMC of the aircraft (Fenix A320). Shouldn't that be enough? It is way to easy to forget the in-game panel. Besides it will autofill when opened up anyway. So I really don't get it. I think the regime is too complex. I just want some planes at the airport. How hard can it be. I'm close to reintroduce Simple Traffic again. At least that is a set it and forget it piece of software... Better with ugly looking AI planes than nothing at all.

    Yes, I too really dislike this requirement to have to enter the destination ICAO into the toolbar, even if it is just to open it for populating. By the fact that it automatically populates the field, it must be getting the info from our flight planner. Therefore why can’t this be done silently behind the scenes as it were? Why did we need to add this extra input?

    Two days ago I flew from FMMI-EGLL, an eleven hour flight. When I arrived in EGLL, there were no AI at all. None on the ground and none arriving. I have a feeling this was due to the fact that I may have forgotten to open the JF toolbar window. I can’t remember doing it for certain. It’s a right pain in the neck having to open that wretched window field in the toolbar.

    @bpfonteyn Agree! It's like we are doing some sort of workaround to get it to work. But this is the actual design. I think the concept is all wrong, and requires too much attention from the user. I'm having my hands full setting up flights and do the actual flying. Why not a pop-up window asking us to confirm the destination? Instead of having to open panels.
    It's like I must have my own checklist just for FS Traffic?

    I am going back to simple traffic till this software are actually ready for the marked.

    I’m not going to uninstall JFT as it has improved a lot since initial release. I just wish the devs could stop the requirement for us to have to do the ICAO confirmation.

    To be honest, in my last flights I opened the in-game panel to add the destination, because I didn't enter a destination during flightplanning. I always had traffic at my destination.
    So to me it seems you have to or should open the in-game panel.
    The good thing though, with v1.0.3 you can do it during the cruise.

    But you are all right, it is a pain and shouldn't be necessary at all!!

    I have the solution!...Just make the program work the way literally every FS9 and FSX traffic programmed worked before without having to jump through any hoops...It CAN be done because it HAS been done...I knew I was in trouble when I found out I had to do steps to make it work.

    If only we had thought of that. You'd think that with 20 years of producing the Traffic franchise such an idea would come almost naturally, but, sadly, not the case.

    We are one year later and the issue has not been solved yet. At random there is no traffic. Sometimes there is....sometimes there is not. Sometimes there are only go arounds because AI is spamming and sometimes airports are ghosttowns. I often fly the same route and some days are good, some days are bad. And that is not good for 36 euro's software.

    Had this issue happen to me since I started using FS traffic this month and the only thing that worked for me was the following:

    1. Select destination in MSFS
    2. Click on FS traffic from the toolbar and wait until it populates the destination, then click confirm
    3. Wait a few seconds then close the pop up

    I think a lot of people in this forum said these steps would work but have seen others say it didn’t work, so just sharing my own experience here.

    Now I need to figure out how to reduce traffic at arrival (lol) as I couldn’t land in one out of two times due to excessive traffic (one plane approaching with me and one on the runway sayintentions ATC cleared me to land on)
