Title: KCLT gates not connecting in GSX
Post by: thebettercp on December 22, 2018, 10:02:28 pm

My gates at FSDT KCLT do not connect up to my aircraft when gsx is triggered. After selecting operate jetways, the gsx panel does not reopen when ctrl + f12 are pressed again. Only the KCLT scenery menu popups.

It's normal that opening CTRL+F12 at KCLT (or any other FSDT scenery with a menu) will open that menu. However, the 2nd entry should read GSX. If you want to call GSX directly, that's what CTRL+Shift+F12 does, by default.

correct i get the gsx option in the menu initially. however after selecting any option, gsx acts like it is enabled and working but at KCLT no ground units show up and the jetways stay static. nothing visually happens and no options can be selected from the gsx menu

Yes, me too.
Just arrived at KCLT (after many months not flying here) and... surprise! GSX does not work. I call it normally, request a gate, but the ramp guys never show up. After that the GSX menu will never come back either.

I can confirm the same issue. GSX is no longer working in KCLT and KSDF. I use SODE 1.6.4

I have the same issue CTRL-F12 select gateway then it sticks on remove parked cars menu. FYI CTRL-SHIFT-F12 is also hot key for UT Live.

It seems to be caused by some change in SODE 1.6.4. Reverting 1.6.3 fixes the problem: there must have been some change we are not aware of.

We asked clarification to SODE developer, and the issue is caused by a new optimization that has been added to SODE 1.6.4 that, in order to speed up loading, will ignore FSDT folders that are not jetways, and it use the "FSDT_Jetway" and "FSDT_SODE_*" patterns. Since KCLT jetways are in a folder named "FSDT_KCLT_Jetway", they don't match those patterns, so SODE is ignoring them.

The solution is to rename this folder:

Addon Manager\Simobjects\Misc\FSDT_KCLT_Jetway

to be like this:

Addon Manager\Simobjects\Misc\FSDT_SODE_Jetway_KCLT

so it will match one of the patterns and won't be discarded by SODE.
