New Update: Ramp Parking for Jobs

Featured Replies

Ok, I just flew my first job with the new update and I think I noticed a stealth change...

 

I have the Destination Marker turned off, so when I land I'm used to having to taxi around the ramp a bit trying to find the unmarked "correct" parking spot to use (or just hit "N" after giving up in frustration). This time, as soon as the aircraft entered the ramp area, I got a prompt to "park the aircraft." I drove all around the ramp to every parking spot and the prompt never changed. I finally stopped the aircraft and got the prompt to shut down.

 

I'm about to try another couple of jobs to see if they're all like that now. Has anyone else noticed this?

That would be cool. I'd love to actually be able to drive to the right part of the ramp to drop off my passengers instead of being forced to park in a random tie-down spot at the end of the field!

Can not confirm this. No change due to update here.

I need to try this myself.

Hmmm... Maybe not. I just flew another one and drove all around the ramps until I found the one valid parking spot. Then I taxied around some more and the "Park the plane" dialog never went away. I guess I just got lucky and the "right spot" just happened to be right at my point of entry onto the parking ramp last time. I never tried moving off the right spot after the "park" dialog appeared before, so I guess it's always been like that.

 

Oh, well.
