I thought we would have an option to take us to the FSX active runway for take off.

You mean a Follow Me to the runway. There isn't, but it's under consideration for future updates.
-
Do we really need a follow me to the active? Unless you have traffic shut off, it will just end up under an AI aircraft.

And is very unrealistic too. In all the years i have been flying till now i never ever have seen a aircraft taxiing behind a follow me car to the active runway in Real Life europe ;) read your charts then you won't need a follow me to the runway.

Totally agree with that. Completely unrealistic indeed.

Not so unrealistic:
At least in Europe there are airports without SMR (Surface Movement Radar) that impose under LVP (Low Visibility Procedure) the use of follow-me car on departure, especially where Air Traffic Controllers do not have the complete airport manouvering area in sight.

As i said...i never had it....also not during LVP. I didn't say it never happens but it is very unusual. I'm flying since 8 years now and never have seen it. Bigger Airports have ground movement Radar nowadays and on smaller ones with 1 taxiway only you really don't Need a follow me to show you the way to the active.
I'm pretty sure that people that are requesting this feature here just don't want to use charts ;)

no need to shout in here we all can read, since whats switching to microsoft flight got to do with taxing to the rwy, all u need to do is use the atc to ask for the active rwy to take off, write down the taxi way numbers etc than as you taxi out look for the taxi way signs that are marked quite easy to follow, just a matter of using your eyes and looking out for them quite easy to follow
