** Potential bug ** Taxiway/Gate restore not working as expected

Recommended Posts

Hi @Dave-Pilot2ATC,

I think I've stumbled across another bug. 

It states in the instructions that every time you import an airports Taxiways/gates, it creates a backup first, so that you can restore the original if you've only performed one import of each at that point.

Sure enough the backups create, but I've noticed that when you use them, it fails to import the original setup and instantly records over them, destroying them without the restore having taken effect.

The second time I needed to do this I took precautions and created copies of the backups first. I then tested. Sure enough, when I restored using the original backups, the restore didn't work and then the backup files became useless as they were then overwritten. 

However, then I tried to restore from the copies of the backups, named the same but appended with - Copy, and they worked perfectly. 

So it seems that when you're restoring from backups, it some how manages to record over them before using them, rendering them ineffective.

Hope this helps,

Mark.
