KLGA Issues #SimSmithDesign

[VenturaGuy101]

United jet being pushed back from Gate B_C12 the pushback truck is going in circles and the plane is not finishing the push back.  The American plane right behind it is asking also for pushback.

Update:  

A smaller ER4 was able to bush back.  The issue is when the planes are pushed back they fallow the center lines which are used to guide the plane in.  The push back displaces the jest too much into the other gates.  The pushback should push it back perfectly on the center line.  The plane was pushed back using the red dots.  It should have used the yellow dots.

I`will check it and fix it A.S.A.P. Thank you fro your remark!

I was noticing that similar pushbacks on other gates.  This was one that caused a blockage.  If I find some more odd issues I will post them.  BTW great job on this airport.  Generally speaking I really have not encountered any big issues so far.  Just a few minor ones.

Strongly agree with Ventura.  KLGA overall works great, and I have not encountered any real game stoppers - just the occasional issues with pushbacks as described above.  Great job, SimSmith!!!  I think KLGA was an excellent choice for their first airport.  The more I play it, the more I realize how ideal this airport is for Tower3D.  Depending on which runways are in use, there are some really interesting challenges to getting the tin from gate to runway and vice versa, without hitting each other.  So much fun!   I hope you guys will do KDCA one of these days!, as it has some similar challenges.

Hey, now that's the best news I've heard in quite some time. You might have just earned another purchase SSD! Keep up the great work, looking forward to more from your studio.

Thanks again.

I agree, that's great news.

Found another issue:  KLJA is missing taxiway K (Kilo) that connects taxiways A and B together about half way between taxiways J and L.  The taxiway appears in the game world but does not show on the ADIRS or responds to commands.

Here is the taxiway K (Kilo) shown in the game:

Any one seen issues with planes that land on 4, and exit at taxiway F, and seem to get stuck? they will not move no matter what command.

[SimSmith Design]

Thank you Guys all the remarks!!We will fix it ASAP!!

 Yeah, it happens a lot.

[SimSmith Design]

We are collecting all the bug and willing to release a service pack in January! Thank you for your understanding!

Good...SKW 3328 also refuses to vacate runway 4 left onto G on landing saying it's too short when it  turns off before that normally. It's the 1700 scenario.

[VenturaGuy101]

There have been reports at other airports with the "too short" during vacate instructions.  I don't think its a KLGA issue but something in the game engine.  I have not ran across this one yet but I will post a log when I encounter it.

[707FAN]

The too short subject has been brought up in other topics so it might be worth a topic on its own. (Vic)  I have tested KLGA Rwy 22 arrivals using ATC Joes' schedule with two of each A/C type in the schedule.

One I allowed to turn off normally without any additional commands. The second I requested : vacate runway left onto taxiway C  Below is the table of results.  A/C type, normal turnoff, with vacate command.

319,E,OK
320,E,OK
321,D,2 Short
717,E,2 Short
736,E,OK
737,E,OK
738,E,OK
739,E,OK
CR2,E,2 Short
CR7,E,2 Short
CR9,E,2 Short
CRJ,E,2 Short
E70,G,OK
E75,E,2 Short
E90,E,OK
ER3,G,OK
ER4,G,OK

Hope this helps. I will try KPHL when I get a chance unless someone else can try it & report the results.

Kev, this is good work - I've noticed this issue too lately. Two suggestions to get this in front of FeelThere (instead of SimSmith) - a separate topic (as you mentioned) and log files ("no log no bug").
