I've read all the turtorials I can find for FSX PLANNER, but I can't find anything detailing how to use the following:
1 How to set a parking spot for airplanes. I have designed a military airport in which the taxi paths to parking spots are on a tarmac with no gates. The taxi lines to parking spaces are several circular patterns on the ramp with a parking spot marked in the middle of the elongated circle. I've done this by placing the parking spot on the taxi line and it dissapears when compiled. I've also done this by making a section of the circle, between two taxi nodes, a parking path. When I do this, it fails to compile.
2. How to get AI airplanes to take off, land and park at the AF base.
I can't find any instructkions on how to set up taxiways to allow the AI aircraft to follow taliways to parking spots or to an active runway. Is there a required taxiway numbering system? Are the taxiways directional for AI traffic? Is it necessary to name parking spots a certain way?
3. How to set parking spots for vehicles? I saw a post about this that said to place a parking spot for the vehicle. But how do I connect the parking spot to vehicle taxiways? Does the path have to be circular, going back to the parking spot?
Most of what I've done so far has been by trial and error, since the available tutorials don't go into enough detail.
Thanks for any help,
Mike
