In LPPT I've selected Cargo Loaders as the cargo loading type. I've applied it, confirmed it's active on all gates, however I still get sent conveyor belts. Very frustrating.

Not possible to say anything with such a sparse description of the situation, missing the most important element: the AIRPLANE used.

Because, it's not as if you can use cargo loaders as you please. They have a minimum height constraint so, if the airplane cargo doors are lower than the minimum height the platform can reach, you won't see them no matter what you do on the airport profile.

It's the FENIX A320

Since GSX now has a proper A320-specific dedicated loader, it will only come out if you also set the "AKH" Loader type in the airplane configuration page for both doors, and de-select the AUTO checkmark and the BELT selection as well.

This is done to prevent the A320-specific loader to appear on other airplanes "just" because their cargo door is lower than the minimum height the other bigger loader could reach.

As a general rule, unless there are very specific space constraint on aprons, it's best not to change the loader type in the airport page and, instead, change it in the airplane profile, all more valid now that you can even have airline-specific airplane profiles in GSX.

Page 77 of the manual, which explains how to create airframe-specific and airline-specific airplane profiles.
