A request for later uppdates..

[eirikc]

Ive been testing gsx now for a couple of hours at smaller airports.. in my region where i fly the most, its just small airports without gates and that cant land heavy aircraft like the 737 and so on, the only aircraft that land on these airports are dash 8-100`s .. i have a request that while boarding and unboarding at small airports the bus is not an good idea,, when people get off the aircraft they just go straight into the terminal building... when that big bus arrives on gsx now the bus just drives through the buildings and stuff....

Is this possilbe or is it that gsx dont know the differense on big and small airports..?

The bus is determined by your aircraft, smaller Ga aircraft will get a minivan instead.  A Dash 8 holds more passengers than the minivan will accomodate.

GSX doesn't evaluate the airport as being large or small as a whole, but it looks at the parkings.

We can disable the passenger bus at specific gates, via an airport customization, which what we did for some of the small Hawaiian airports, but there isn't a system in place to automatically decide to remove the passenger bus right now. We might think about how to do it.

Well i was thinking if we got a future uppdate with animated passengers, it will be great if they could walk to the airport building instead of a bus or minivan on small airports..

The customization. Is it done in the AFCAD? If so..could you tell us what it is?
By the way...GREAT ADDON!!! :-D

No, the customization is done with files downloaded via the live update. Not something you could do for yourself, at least not at the present time.

Would it be possible, in the future, to have a settings module, like a possibility to "set the time" for different services?

Read the manual, there's a paragraph named "Customizing GSX", that deals exactly with that. Right now you'll have to edit a text file, we might add a GUI later on, but you can customize operation times as you wish.
