How does the schedule system work?
-
Hi,
I have a question regarding the schedules.Will FSTraffic take the in-sim time into account when injecting traffic? So when I set the sim to a morning time, will it use the schedule's flights at that time to inject the traffic?
Or is it taking the system time?Thanks!

Stu@disc79stu The time at which you first load in to a flight - in the sim

@bobbyfuzzy okay, so when I'm sitting at my sim-desk at 0100z (where no traffic will be taking off & landing at may airport IRL) but set the sim time to 0900z, it will inject the traffic that was scheduled at that time?

@disc79stu That is correct!

Yes as Bobby said , that is correct. However, let me add as a caveat, that if you start off at 0900z, and then pull down the weather menu in the sim to move the time slider to 1500z (for example), your traffic WILL NOT change. You actually have to exit the simulator and come back in with the time set for 1500z, and then you'll get 1500z's traffic.
If I've restated something you already knew, forgive my chiming in. I just thought if you were unaware, it's a vital thing to understand.
I think this is a limitation, but hopefully it may one day be improved upon.

@b3_burner
Thanks for making this clear, I was actually already suspecting this, as I saw no traffic change when changing the time-slider
Good enough for me, I'm happy with setting the correct time and then having realistic traffic for that time (as I usually only find time very late in the day, where "live" traffic isn't that prominent).Cheers
