The position used by the Warp me function is the SAME used by the Marshaller and the GSX Docking System to tell you were to stop.

I used it just because it was obviously quicker to show in a video, rather than taxiing with the marshaller with 3 different planes, but it's the exactly SAME as using the Marshaller: it would have guided exactly in the same spot as the Warp me command.

The default "Go To Airport" menu of the simulator doesn't obviously know anything about the GSX Stop Position so, it won't use it and won't be affected by it.

There's no "problem", it just works, if you set the parking position correctly.

Just for you ... some Pics from LFPG Gate A14.

A14 = After the Marshaller gives me the STOP and CUT ENGINES Signal
A14_1 = The Nose Gear at the wrong Position
A14_2 = The Setup for the STOP Position ( which is correctly set )
A14_3 = After i use the WARP ME HERE option

I dont know what else i should say, the Pictures say all.
I have not the Time now, but i can also record a video secial for you to beleave me.

That's doesn't mean the marshaller calculated the position "wrong", only he does allow you for some tolerance, and you might have stopped a bit too late.

How was the evaluation of the parking from the Marshaller ? Have you got a "Very Good parking" rating ? If yes, I'm sure the nosewheel was *very* close to the correct position. If you haven't, than it's just a problem of not having parked good enough. And, you still can get a "Very Good Parking" rating, as long as your longitudinal distance is within 50 cm. from the stop position. The Docking System is more stick: it has a tolerance of about 30 cm.

If we didn't allow some slack, people would complain it's not possible to get a good rating, also because taxiing accurately in the simulator is more difficult than in real life.

You want further confirmation ? Enable the Marshaller distance readouts in the GSX Settings. You'll see the longitudinal distance WILL be 0 when you ARE on the correct stop position. THIS is what the Marshallers is expecting from you.

They don't say anything about how accurate you were following the Marshaller.

I DO have time, because time for supporting users must always be found. Here's a video showing you how it's done. Sorry if I wasn't lucky enough to get the Marhaller dancing, he only dances 20% of the times, after a "Very Good Parking".



As you can see, the A320 stopped precisely in its own Stop Position as defined by the scenery. SAME as the Warp.

Yes, having the readouts active helps a lot. The sim ground behavior is not very good, especially with default airplanes, which makes it harder than real life to control the plane on ground, but that's not obviously GSX's fault, and it's why we have these extra helps, such the distance readouts and why we still consider "Very Good" a parking which might be up to 50 cm from the right stop distance.

But the stop position itself IS calculated precisely, which is confirmed by the distance readouts showing "0.0" when the plane had the Nosewheel on the correct stop position.

mroschk:
Ahhh, now it is a tollerance problem or my fault because i stopped too late ????
Ohhh yes, the fault was on my side ... for sure it was not.
I arrived with very slow speed and stopped exactly when the Marshaller told me.

But as i say, i will also record a video specially for you.
But i can not record in KLAX, because i did not have the scenery.
