I'm sure everyone is familiar with this phenomenon - you fly over an area - emptyness and desolution all around you, the ATC guy is bored stiff, than, suddenly, the sim shakes, frameratas drop, the TCAS screen fills with litle dots that were not there a second ago and ATC does crazy with endless instructions.can anyone explain why this happens ( I can guss but I'd prefer an answer from someone who actually knows) and more importantly, can anything be done to spread the traffic in a more homogenous way?Thanx//Michael

I would guess that your "sphere of AI aircraft" that is always around you has just reached a major airport with lots of traffic. Suddenly all the traffic that should be approaching that airport is created.Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___
