Title: Gate C17 issue
Post by: altstiff on September 20, 2014, 12:50:35 am

Noticed an issue with gate C17. I was flying around the airport and while at a distance I notice the gate is not attached to the AI airplane (UAL 787) parked there. As I flew closer to it the gate pops out and extends (like it would be if it was deboarding PAX). Problem is that it is in three separate segments, not one segment like it should be.

Anyway to shut off the gates from auto connecting to AI like that? And also, is the jetway too short to reach the 2nd door of the AI787?

Yes, of course, and it's what most users do anyway, because jetways on AI kill fps. Several AI traffic packages, for example UT2, have the option to turn off jetways in all their models. If your AI don't have this option, you'll have to edit all their aircraft.cfg, to remove the door coordinates in the [Exits] section.

Can I just remove the exits section altogether?

If not what would need to be omitted from say the following? (FAIB 737-800)

[exits]
number_of_exits =2
exit.0 = 0.4,  39.7, -5.492,  4.341, 0   //openclose rate percent per second, longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet), type (0=Main 1=Cargo 2=Emergency)
exit.1 = 0.4, -36.5,  4.669, -1.974, 1   //openclose rate percent per second, longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet), type (0=Main 1=Cargo 2=Emergency)

You can remove it all, it shouldn't affect the aircraft.
