Floatplane's smashing into each other at Docks and on takeoff

Featured Replies

Hi Jon,

 Finally have the new system up and running.

Have Orbx PNW installed, Tongas Fjords, Vancouverplus V3, VictoriaPlus PNW 8, and Don's Vic Int. cyyj (2014).

Float planes are smashing into each other at the Dock and on takeoff and landing. Sometimes as many as 3 or 4 will

all park on top of each other at both Harbour Air and at the Regency Hotel (hyiate).

  The  AI_Floatplane_DHC-2_Beaver_FSX and TFX are the only AI Floatplane_DHC-2_Beaver_XXX files listed under

SimObjects/Airplanes, and are not duplicated. The Aircraft CFG is dated (created Aug-14-2014).

  I do have a number of Traffic Files listed under their respective Scenery files for each installation, as follows:

Tongas Higher Priority

    -  Traffic_TF_FSX_floatplanes_DHC2.bgl  and also DHC3+6.bgl

VancouverPlus V3 Higher Priority

    - Traffic_Vplus1_FSX_Seaplane.bgl

VictoriaPlus PNW 

    - Traffic_VicPlus_Seaplane.bgl 

 

Wondering if the traffic files could be conflicting ?

 The new "Victoria" is awesome, we get great framerates now compared to old install.

BTW all of the above was with fresh installs as we did a complete fresh install of everything on the new system, so no old

files could have been left behind by accident.

  Thanks to you or anyone else who may be able to shed some light on this issue.  

Glad you're enjoying the product!  

 

Thanks for all the background data.

 

This occurs when you have duplicate traffic in memory.  This can occur when you enable and disable and re-enable scenery library entries, as when you disable a scenery library folder it does not disable the traffic file, and when you re-enable the folder a duplicate traffic is created.

 

As well, make sure you only have on VictoriaPlus V8 PNW library entry, and only one set of higher and lower priority Vancouver Plus entries..

 

I can't think of another reason offhand for your abundance!

Thanks Jon,

  You where correct, the problem eventually sorted itself out by letting it clear the memory.

No problem, thanks for checking back in....
