Are there any plans to update the database?
-
First of all, thank you for the FS Traffic 2024 compatibility update.
There are two FS Traffic databases.
Summer 2022, Winter 2022/23
Unfortunately, both were created during the pandemic, when global flight schedules were significantly reduced.
While Summer 2025 may be challenging, would it be possible to update the database to a level that reflects the recovery seen in Winter 2024/25?

I have made files that you can use to improve the fequencey of traffic. I have checked and they still work with the latest version of FS-Traffic. The schedules are not real, but they do make the airports busier. You can choose time between aircraft arrivals and departures.
Check them out here.

https://flightsim.to/profile/Killamarshian@Killamarshian Oh... I used your file very well in 2020.
I'm so happy to hear that it will work in 2024 as well.
Thank you.
I'll download and install it right away. -
Sorry, I have not checked in 2024. I was meaning still work in latest version of FS-Traffic for 2020. If they do work in 2024, please let me know.

@Killamarshian I just ran a test.

Unfortunately, after installing the file, I couldn't see any traffic aircraft at the airport.
I was the only one there.
After returning to the original file, I could see traffic aircraft at the airport.
I'll wait for your 2024 version.
Good luck to you.

I will do some investigation and get back to you if I find a solution.

I am afraid I cant investigate as installing FS-Traffic into FS2024 just ruins my set up. As soon as I press 'fly now' it wipes out my whole PC.
However, I have looked at the file formats and they appear alike. I think it may be a possible memory issue that is stopping aircraft from showing. We had the same problems in FS2020 for people will low memory

i have just brought fs traffic for 2024 1 aircraft at egbb this is not good enough update to 2025 schedules
@marks179 The amount of traffic generated by the FS Traffic module is determined by the FS Traffic schedules, and they can be viewed in the Schedules Manager tab of the Traffic Control Centre app.
I've just had a look at the schedules for EGBB with both Summer 2022 and Winter 2022/23 databases, and I can't see any time between 0500 and 2200 where only 1 aircraft should be generated with the default settings, so I don't believe updating to the 2025 schedules wouldn't have the intended effect here.
There are a few settings in the Traffic Control Centre that can be used to customise your FS Traffic experience, and these are covered in more detail in the FS Traffic Manual.
Firstly, we kindly recommend that you have a read of the 'Quick Start Guide (MSFS 2024)' to ensure that you have your MSFS settings set per our recommended settings. The Quick Start Guide is available on page 9 of the FS Traffic Manual (linked above).
Next, the easiest way to increase the amount of traffic generated is to increase the "Time Before Departure Value (Mins)" on the Traffic Control Centre > Options page. The greater the value, the further ahead into the future the FS Traffic module will look when generating flights. Note: The amount of traffic that is able to be generated will eventually be limited by how many gates/parking spaces an airport has.
Depending on how the airport has been set up by the developer, the gate sizes may also not be set to the correct sizes, and that can prevent FS Traffic's models from generating at the gates. This is particularly an issue at default, auto-generated MSFS airports, although we have seen this occur with third-party airports too. To workaround this limitation of the airports, we recommend going to the Traffic Control Centre > Options page, and setting Wingspan Options to Compatibility Mode (Low) or Compatibility Mode (High). Further details on the Wingspan Option are listed on page 39 of the FS Traffic Manual (linked above).
If you continue to only see 1 aircraft generated following the suggestion above, we would kindly ask you to create a ticket with Just Flight Support via the following link, and our support team will be able to assist with further troubleshooting: https://www.justflight.com/support

@Mark Traffic is generated at the departure airport.
However, upon arrival after the flight, there is no traffic generated at the arrival airport.
Is this a known issue, or is it my problem?

This may help: https://support.justflight.com/support/solutions/articles/17000131083-why-am-i-not-seeing-any-traffic-generated-at-my-arrival-airport-
@Derek I entered the arrival airport in the in-game toolbar and
pressed confirm.
However, it didn't feel like I had pressed the button, it just felt like I was clicking on the screenshot .
And when I arrived at the arrival airport, I couldn't see the traffic.
