It opens the escape door above the flight deck! So I have everything lined out nicely, but in use things get fouled up because GSX wants me to open Exit 2 before it will load cargo and board.

It seems that:

- You are using a 3rd party airplane that has an unusual door arrangement

- You haven't read the GSX manual, which explain what to do to configure any airplane with the door configuration it expects.

GSX comes with some pre-made customization for popular payware airplanes, but if can be configured to work with any airplane, using the included customization editor.

Which is why I brought the issue here. I am familiar with the 3D configurator, and it works very well. Getting the codes used for various doors took visits to the Captain Sim forum, where the ever-helpful Markoz provided me with one. My original 3D configurator work had produced spectacular results. Having one of the designer codes let me figure out what the other doors are called. (I'm just not equal to the task of digging that out of the code myself.) Please don't assume I have not read the manual. But understanding it and learning how to do things again after a six year absence from the hobby is a steep curve. Now, I have a very nice config with only one problem to solve: how to get stairs to door number three. I got the positions from the 3D configurator, and was able to get everything working save the one door just using that. Now, with more information, I have done a more elegant job. It's done in the same format, assuming door number three follows the same naming convention. But only two stairs appear at the modified stand, 21 at EGGW.

[exit1]
pos = -2.50 21.77 -0.16 10.50
code = 1
name = Exit 1L
embeddedStair = 0

[exit2]
pos = -3.18 7.20 -0.11 -3.50
code = (L:PassDoor2, bool)
name = Exit 2L
embeddedStair = 0

[exit3]
pos = -3.11 -8.57 -0.05 0.00
code = (L:PassDoor3, bool)
name = Exit 3L
embeddedStair = 0

[exit4]
remove = 1

Don't be so defensive. I enjoyed your product in FSX and it's mind-blowing to see passengers going up the stairs on "insane" mode without a hiccup. (Maybe a bit too insane.) I easily configured a stand at Luton. I'm enjoying the process, not criticizing your product either expressly or by implication. Maybe you can spot something I've done wrong in the sequence and offer a suggestion. If not, that's okay, too. I'll figure it out because I like GSX 2. In fact, checks aren't that important to me, since I enjoy managing things, and I haven't seen a picture of an L1011 loading with three stairs anyway. When it's two, it's main and the second door. The simplest solution for me is the easiest, accomplished solely with the 3D configurator. There. Fixed.

[exit2]
pos = -3.18 7.20 -0.11 -3.50
code = 0
embeddedStair = 0

[exit4]
