Recommended Posts

Tried adding a taxiway tip to get aicraft off the runway faster, the aicraft gets to the hold point and stops.Any ideas?Thanks

My latest theory is that they stop if you have taxipoints (maybe even taxiways) too close to each other. For example they can taxi along the side of an unused runway, but moving the taxiline in on top of the runway line gave me those problems.

Have you ever 'hitched a ride' with any of the AI aircraft?You might be surprised to learn that they taxi at an average 15kts while on the runway after landing, slow to about 6kts turning, and then accelerate back to about 15kts for taxi.That sounds like pretty much a realistic speed!

I don't think the taxi speed is as much the problem as the fact that AI aircraft slow to the taxi speed so soon after landing whether the next taxiway is 50 feet away or 5000 feet away, in the real world the aircraft would keep its speed up until it got near the taxiway to expedite clearing the runway.
