• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Compiler Error

Hello

I have modified a small airport elnt ( grass)
But every time the error #c2588:did not find start #0 needed
for taxi Path # 11 at airport elnt with compile the to bgl.
Can any tell what this means and doing wrong???::confused:


Greetings

Yes - every taxipath has a start and finish node (taxi point). Your path 11 contains the information that it's start node should have the index 0. However it seems that there is no node with that index number. The compiler cannot generate the taxipath because it does not know where to start and thus fails.

You need to check the nodes and links. I think FSX Planner has some checking tools that you should run.

If that does not work then post the xml file as an attachment here and we will take a look at it

As mentioned above try running the Compile -> Clean All option, and the Compile -> Error Checking option. You may have an unconnected taxiway path, which should be picked up by the above checks.

hello

Thanks for the info it works with taxi so far but the airplanes
dont takeoff.
Can you look for whats wrong with this small grass airport:confused:
With the FSX Planner is not so simple to work with it.
I put the attach in this tread.

Thanks.

Can you explain a bit more what you mean? This is not a question of FSX Planner - but more on airport design I think. Are you talking about AI traffic? Do you have any AI flight plans for your airport.

On the airport I would note that there is only one access to the runway - do aircraft taking off from the other end use the runway to taxi? If so there does not seem to be any way for them to turn at the far end. Also there is no hold short before the runway. As I say these are not matters for FSX Planner but general airport design.
 
re compile error

hello
scruffyduck

yes i have AI traffic on this airport but the planes taxi to the runway on the start location and do not takeoff.
I wil try make a new airport.
But I have a quest how can i get on the taxiway the start and
end the 0----1.
Sorry I am a newbie with this.

Thanks to help;)


Greetings.
 
As stated

Place a hold short node at the entrance of the runway. 0 and 1 will heal itself and the airport will compile.
 
compile error

hello
jvile

Thanks for the info.
No Errors.
I have install AI traffic on this airport but the aircraft
dont takeoff the planes go over the hold sort node en stay
put on the runway.
?????????????????????????
Now you whats wrong??????


greetings:confused:
 
What type of AI FP?

Are these FP's VFR, IFR, TNG?

Have you placed a Start Location at each end of the runway

Does the black line running the length of the runway have a runway number or is it blank

What type plane (empty weight) is not taking off

If this is a homemade airport what Departure Freq. did you assign once the AI Plane is airborne

Do the parking spots have names or do they say NONE.

Designing a airport is visual but you must also play by the non-visual rules that impact AI Traffic behavior.

When troubleshooting you need to have traffictoolbox.dll to see where the hold up occurs based on what phase the AI was cleared for last. This includes did they stop at the hold short or just taxi through and out onto the runway. Did they contact Tower or announce that they were taken the active runway or just taxi from a parking spot with no communication to other planes or the airport itself.

The list can be endless and just saying that they won't takeoff without additional knowledge on what AI must do to takeoff is hard to answer because everything is a speculation.
