Oooh that could be a real good type of mission/job, having to go get a patient. First take-off from the base where you're stationed at and then having to land on some rural unpaved strip and try to park as close to the patient as possible within a certain time frame.

Coming into the airport terminal is an exciting moment, if you can see some action taking place at the airport. With bush pilots demanding proper highways and road furniture with decent structure and vehicle movements. Another cut-scene would be sat in a driverless car approaching the airport from the road. With the fully detailed simulator I think it would be missing a trick to not have the office filing cabinet next to a window where the action is taking place outside like in the Tower views. Some very interesting ideas you have there. But I am not too sure if the devs have enough spare time to implement this because this is totally unrelated to flying. But I am sure some time in the future the msfs devs or some 3rd party devs can do this seeing that they already have the groundwork laid out for them with these insanely detailed cities. If implemented correctly, the immersion will be ground shattering. Baber My Youtube Channel http://www.youtube.com/user/HDOnlive
August 18, 20196 yr Commercial Member Agreed. I've been talking about cut scenes could do with an upgrade since everything from wings to wheels have been mentioned. I also said that the fully detailed sim would be required, That should be enough to assume no interference with the goals of the main sim right? As I said a bit OTT, maybe, I would expect cut-scenes would be better implemented by addons, such as the career type of game. This facility is there right now in FSX.

August 19, 20196 yr enhanced AI/ATC -using a method of "load balancing" on all active landing runways reducing or eliminating go-arounds. Instead of using whatever runway is closest when an aircraft is within range, make it so there is an even flow of landing aircraft accross ALL active landing runways. -reduced airport traffic clutter: pausing outbound traffic waiting for takeoff so inbounds can cross the active runway reducing the amount of "timed out" aircraft. taking turns so to speak. Appropriate ratio, not every other. -realistic approaches: SIDs STARs I observe O'hare airports traffic flow on flightradar24 when they have 3 simultaneous inbound runway use and would love to see that type of approach logic in this version.

The biggest point is the go-arounds in FSX with heavy traffic. the "real world" does not have that issue because of the way the runways are utilized. Do you like waiting inbound aircraft disappearing because they time out and cant cross a busy outbound active runway? I don't. Its not realistic and something that should be looked into.

But traffic flow control at busy airports is extremely complex in the real world.

Sorry Brandon - should have added at the end - try this:- https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/files/1645/fsx-aismooth/ It REALLY works on smoothing AI traffic and drastically reducing Go Arounds in FSX. I never tried it when I was running P3D so can't say if it works but I don't see why not - there's no 64bit gauges involved. It's a must have if, like me, you're greedy with the traffic sliders coming in to Gatwick at 17:30 hours on a Friday night and like queuing up behind the Ryanairs, Speedbirds and Easys and every other Tom, Dick and Harry.
August 21, 20196 yr Author From the night lighting thread: it would look fantastic if the night lighting had some random ads coloring the landscape, especially in cities. Some blue, green, red lights in addition of the yellow and white from the default city ones. The intensity of each one shouldn t be the same to add immersion. Also, a nice feature would be that night lighting in developped countrysides to be much more dynamic and bright than in an African countryside for example.
August 21, 20196 yr Commercial Member ...to clarify what I meant by mirages: thinking more of the distortion of longer range views through heat rising over the runway. Steve Waite: Engineer at codelegend.com
August 22, 20196 yr Has anyone requested pilot controlled lighting? If not, I'll add it to the list. Pilot controlled lighting is one of those things I took for granted until I started working on my instrument rating. Chris
