Traffic Injector 1.3.5

* Independently adjust the insert radius for on ground vs in air traffic both by config file and in toolbar

* Further improvements around model matching of operator flights

* Changed the removal distance to be 10km more than the insert radius setting rather than fixed at 200km

* Lowered the max spawn radius to be 150km for both in air and on ground

* Fixes to help reduce the amount of 'Removed by MSFS Traffic Engine' issues

* Fixed the 'stuck' removal process and allowed it to remove those stuck in pushback, 120secs or more secs is a good setting

* Config file is now pretty formatted

* VGHS airport missing - fixed

* Resetting traffic via the toolbar would double up the number of static being used at an airport - fixed

You're very welcome @cavaricooper

I know that a lot of people (like me!) are not keen on Discord, so I thought I'd repost here.

True, so thanks for posting the changelog.

Thanks for this. I am on Discord but try (fail) and keep the servers I belong to a minimum.

How can I find which runway FSLTL is using, or will use, before I create a SimBrief flight plan?

I usually check FL24 before hitting simbrief

Thanks but what is FL24? Is that a real world database that sim uses? And does that tell you the runway FSLTL will use? What about the landing runway as well? Ie how does FSTLT decide on the runway in use?

Thanks for the heads up. 

I'm however having difficulties downloading the Base Models update. Already tried 3 or 4 times and it keeps on getting stuck, and each time at a different model 😕

Anyone else?

Cheers,

I expect they may mean FlightRadar24 and checking what the airport is using in the real world at the time. 

@Zangoose @jarmstro @adino FSLTL uses MSFS default traffic systems just like AIG, so the runway will not be taken from real life but MSFS will decide it based on the winds. So you cannot know this before starting the flight.
You are probably mixing it up with real-time live traffic like that PSXT stuff, which does not use MSFS traffic at all but just projects "images" of the aircraft from real-time live data (a bit like VATSIM, with the real life traffic as the other "players"; though they of course do not see you since... well they are in a real plane).

EDIT:
To elaborate:

PSXT real-time: Delta 521 is at the following coordinates with the following speed, so we'll project it right there in MSFS and update every second...
FSLTL: There's a live Delta 521 flight between KORD and KIAD about to depart in 20 minutes [from the actual real time and date, regardless of simulator time] , so we'll create an appropriate AI traffic (with a random/not-real gate, position, taxi time etc.)
AIG: There's a flightplan with a Delta 521 flight between KORD and KIAD about to depart in 20 minutes [from the set simulator time/date] , so we'll create an appropriate AI traffic (with a random/not-real gate, position, taxi time etc.)

Had the same problem with updating on the previous build.

I just totally deleted both base and injector folders from previous versions and started over.

Eventually downloaded the updated builds without getting stuck.

One can always tell which runways MSFS ATC will use for both departure and arrival before starting a flight, and I input those into SimBrief every time:

1. Enter your departure airport and a runway will populate.
2. Re-select the same departure airport and now whatever runway will be used will display.
3. Same same for arrival airport--the key is to select it twice.  Sometimes it will stay the same as the initially displayed runway, but as required the runway will change as needed.

There may be a situation where the METAR updates after you've done this and changes the runway but out of 100's of times I've done this it's literally only been a couple that then don't match what ATC will direct you to.

Worked like a charm, thx !

Is it possible to update just the Traffic Injector via this update?
