Traffic

[Bizub4]

Is there a way to make traffic come to an airport I make from scatch? Or do I need to download another program?
Also how do I change the paint on a jetway?

You mean AI Aircraft traffic? Yes there is a way (or two). You can do it with the Traffic Toolbox SDK.

(As a part of that process, one of the files you would need to make would be a text file with your new airport's information. See fs10airports.dat in the SDK for a template to base your text file on.)

Also how do I change the paint on a jetway?

If you mean the default jetways, I do not know of any way to alter their appearance because that is in the jetway model MS used.

Custom textured jetway models could be created and used in the sim. I would ask the model forum guys about that.

A compiler which uses a command prompt uses a lot less overhead and takes a lot shorter time than a GUI interface.

TDBB works just fine with a command prompt - and can crunch some truely awesome sized files.

Though personally, I find it best to run it from a batch file - so I can edit /tweak the command line in case I make any fat finger errors.

'cause DOS is better. Even Microsoft knows that.

It sure does have low overhead. I used TDBB to crunch American Airlines files. The resulting BGL was many many megs in size. It did it fast and without complaint.

I don't run it from a batch file, but I do keep a txt file "template" with a tdbb command line string so that I can quickly cut and paste into the dos box.

Hi,

Please, find in your system a little tool called: cmd.exe

In my sistem it's in: C:\Windows\System32

It can open a (black) window where you can insert the command lines to compile traffic.

Typing in that screen the word:
help
you will get a list of commands for DOS operations.

Some are dangerous for your system.

FSX SDK has many examples on how to do that.

From the Traffic Toolbox Sdk manual:

To restrict aircraft routes to only those defined in the CustomAircraftSchedules.dat file, type:

TrafficDatabaseBuilder /Airports=fs10.Airports.dat /Schedules=CustomAircraftSchedules.dat /AutoSchedule=No /Output=traffic.bgl

What editing program do you use to make the CustomAircraftSchedules.dat file?

3. To Customize the Aircraft List

To add addition aircraft types, defined in a file named CustomAircraftTypes.csv, type the following command:

TrafficDatabaseBuilder /Airports=fs10.Airports.dat /AircraftTypes=fs10.AircraftTypes.csv /AircraftTypes=CustomAircraftTypes.csv /Output=traffic.bgl
