Hello, Ground Handlers! We have some hot fixes for you. These fixes are not only our work but also yours, as we opened a Beta Testing a few days ago. For those who didn't know that, please go to our Discord. For those who know, let's see what we improved this time:
Overhaul to the aircraft movement system:
- Now, aircraft can move freely around the airport. Their movement is based on who will be the first to reach a certain crossroad to avoid head-on collision oncoming aircraft. If an aircraft is going to reach that intersection later than th first one, it will stop near it or further down the road to give way to oncoming traffic.
- Before the pushback task is activated, it checks if other aircraft have finished their pushback in its vicinity and if the aircraft driving on the taxiway is far enough to start the procedure. If both conditions are met, your task will become activated.
- When the pushback task for the player is active, other aircraft will stop at the nearest crossroad and wait for the pushback to be completed before moving further.
- Added a new UI notification in the Operations tab in Tablet. Now, whenever Pushback or Follow Me is active, a small icon will flash on the aircraft that is ready to perform that operation.
- Fixed a camera bug for the marshall on Rovaniemi for stand no.9.
- Fixed a bug on Rovaniemi where some aircraft stopped after exiting the runway (this occasionally caused players to be kicked out of multiplayer).
- Corrections made to the LODs on the A320 Neo.
- Corrections made to the paths on various airports.
- Minor corrections made to the scenarios.
- Correction to displaying aircraft list in Operation list in tablet. Previously if player selected time in scenario editor but didn't place departure or arrival destination "ghost" aircraft would show up in Operation list
- Correction to floating aircraft that awaits for pushback from player
