AI traffic parking spot

Featured Replies

AN-142, MD-11,DC-10 i have issue with heavy park at medium parking spot for 757 the wings on heavy aircraft hit's the other ai aircraft 

airplane_geometry i have try this but it not working

wing_area=

wing_span= 

do anyone now how to fix that its Radius that bother me

 

Edited by LN20095

AI park based on their wingspan= entry in the aircraft.cfg. If they are correct, and your airports has decent parking (ie no overlapping spots etc), then you wont have any issues. Where are you noticing this, and using what AI?

Make sure the aircraft cfg wing span values are correct.  It could be that yours are too low so those aircraft are parking in those spots.

The parking spot sizes are measured in meters.  A typical medium spot has a 23m radius so can accommodate aircraft with up to a 150ft wing span.

Is this happening with a stock airport?  If so, which one?

 What are you referring to here? Parking spot sizes or wingspan? 

 Wing_area plays zero role in AI parking.

 Here's a good source of reference that I have been using for well over a decade. It doesn't have the latest models, but gives you a good idea of what you need use.

Parking spot sizes

 So using a 75.34 foot parking spot which is half the radius means that it will fit aircraft up to 150 foot wingspan. What is the wingspan set to for your AI aircraft? What AI are you using? AIG's for instance will be mostly set to proper real world numbers.

Does this happen at all airports, or only a specific one? Can you upload an example AFD file here, so that we can have a look at it?
