Title: Adding a new handler as an option
Post by: luke11brown on November 09, 2019, 09:01:38 am

Hi,

I would like to add a couple of custom handlers as options for certain airports.

I have seen the option for overriding all handlers with a single custom one for a certain parking spot, however, all I want to do is add some handlers to the list of available ones, so that I may get it as an option, not that same custom one always.

For example, I’ve used the override arc parking codes to present realistic handlers, e.g. Menzies,_SWP,_WFS

BUT I would like to add the option of a few for, namely Stobart Aviation Services and Signature.

I’ve been unable to find a way to achieve this in the docs.

Rgds,
Luke

Read the comments in the rules_handling.cfg file or the rules_catering.cfg files in the %APPDATA%\Virtuali\GSX texture folder.

Thanks Umberto,

Have added the following to the file you mentioned:

Code: [Select]

[Stobart Aviation Services]
couatl.atc_parking_codes = STK
couatl.icaoprefixes = EGPH EGPF EGMC EGSS
couatl.basecolor = blue

[Signature Aviation]
couatl.atc_parking_codes = _SIG
couatl.icaoprefixes = EGPH
couatl.basecolor = cool_grey
With the following folders in %appdata%\Roaming\Virtuali\GSX\texture\handling containing the dds files as required

Unfortunately, they still don't show as an option.

For info, I'm trying to call them with airlinecodes = Menzies,_SWP,_WFS,STK,_SIG

With the first three, it works as expected, with the custom ones, not so.
