Front Airstair
« on: January 15, 2020, 10:08:24 am »
 Front stair car always show up when i select a stand/gate at arrival airport even i enabled the embedded staircase option. So i had to restart gsx after open the aircraft doors and deploy front airstair to disappear it. So i would like to know how to disable just front stair car without restart gsx?

You don't say which airplane you are referring to.

This normal and it always has been like this, GSX is not programmed to remove or send away a staircase it has already generated when the embedded airstair was still retracted.

Changing this would require GSX constantly monitoring at any time the airstairs since it should be ideally able to remove its stair at *any* time you extend it, possibly even when passengers are already using the GSX one (we can't possibly know when you'll extend it), so it's quite tricky and easily leading to issues.
