After not flying for a while I cannot remember if RC4 will take you to a specific gate. So far I am being told to park on the ramp. What have I forgotten..

if you specify a gate in the controller info screen of rc. it will not direct you, turn by turn how to get there.jd

Thanks JD, I have the gate charts so I will be able to get there. Hopefully there's no AI parked in my spot.:-)

A registered version of FSUIPC enables the 'traffic zapper' function that will nuke AI in front of you in your vicenity.If you frequent just a few airports you can use an editor like ADE to assign a small gate radius to keep larger AI out of that gate effectively reserving it. Then you can specify that gate in the RC controller page. Gate radius does not physically affect your user aircraft nor how it appears in scenery.

Can you please inform me where within FSUIPC (Registered) this traffic zapper is to be found? No doubt I am overlooking the obvious, but I can't find this feature.Thanks,Hans

Don't know why you can't find it. It appears as an assignable control in the drop-down lists for both Keys and Buttons. The name of the control is actually "Traffic Zapper", so not too obscure, and the controls are listed in alphabetic order, so it shouldn't be too hard to find! After opening the drop-down just press T to get close. You have to point your aircraft at the aircraft you want to Zap and it needs to be in reasonable range.Pete

Thanks, Pete, I must have overlooked this option. I will rush out now and buy a new pair of glasses :Money Eyes:Best,Hans

In the registered version you have a key and maybe a button assignment to toggle the AI between two percent values. If one is zero sometimes when there is an inordinate take-off queue you can use this function to change the percent to zero and back again to refresh AI.
