AI keep crashing on me at KORD: how can this happen?

Featured Replies

Hi folks,while taxiing at KORD (Simflyers) after ground clearance, ATC simply ignored me and several United AI started pushback/taxiing litterally ON me without any sort of alert from ground.I feel like a ghost......Can anyone please help me?Thanks in advanceLuigi ;-)

I don't have Simflyers but I wonder if the AfCad is not set up properly or perhaps you could check you are on the correct taxiway as ATC might not recognise you if you are not.

Hi Charlie,what you say is that ATC CANNOT SEE me but just "SUPPOSE" me on the correct taxiway? And so AI are free to crash on me?If so i must check for a newly KORD AFCAD.I'm i wrong?Thanks for helpingLuigi ;-)

Hi Luigi, I don't really know for sure the cause of your problem with the AI planes, all I am trying to do is give ideas. Unless you are certain that you do have a suitable AfCad file for that scenery, I think it might be a good idea to try to find out if there is one. You could look in the scenery folder of the add on scenery, but equally it could be in another folder, probably also named scenery. AfCad files usually, if not always, have the word afcad or afcad_2 in the file name. I know that usually the AI planes do stop if you are in their way. A while back I was taxying the wrong way on a taxiway and came face to face with an AI plane. It stopped and so did I and if I had not slewed out of the way I think it would have stayed there forever! I don't know about Simflyers scenery, but often, new scenery moves taxiways to slightly different places to the default. So unless there is a suitable AfCad for the new scenery, I figure it might be possible that your plane could be somewhere it would not be expected to be.

I already got one AF2 file for payware KORD, but i do not remember where; later in the morning i went to Simflyers site and downloaded a more recent AFCAD for my scenery. ASAP i'll give it a go.The strange is that AI didn't stop when approaching my plane but crashed straight on me.take careLuigi ;-)

I hope it will help then! Not that I have any other ideas but I am going away for 3 days. I will be interested to see if it works.
