I made an (unsuccessful) initial attempt to taxi my BA 787-10 in O'Hare (KORD) from Concourse M (Gate M17 Heavy) to Concourse K (Gate K16 Heavy). See my post in Hangar Chat.

I read that the BA arrivals into Terminal 5 are typically into Concourse M gates, and the BA departures from Terminal 3 are typically from Concourse K gates.

I have not used the (MSFS) taxiway ribbons in a while but did turn it here on in Assistances, otherwise, I would be completely lost finding my way from T5 to T3...🙂...

This is default (MSFS) ATC. I have pre-defined Gate K16 arrival on the World Map and then did request gate-to-gate taxi clearance from Gate M17 to Gate K16. However, I noticed (on the external view) that my (MSFS) taxi ribbon stops a short way ahead i.e., does not lead me forward towards Gate K16 (See images below).

Any idea what could be the issue? I Googled on-line that disappearing (or absent) taxiway ribbons in MSFS are sometimes an issue, but the suggested remedies did not help.

Thanks.

I understand now that there could be many factors (all, not well-understood) that could cause taxiway ribbon display issues in MSFS.

I tried some of the standard suggestions but they didn’t help my case. I am also wondering if it’s something specific to my Xbox/MSFS system/settings.

I wish to taxi directly (gate-to-gate) at O’Hare/KORD from Gate M17 to Gate K16 (instead of taxiing for the normal departure runway for takeoff).

If possible, could someone please replicate/check if you could see the extended taxiway ribbon (beyond the point I’ve shown in my images)?

Thanks.
