[Tower 3D Pro Reads text string with every transmission]

Are you running the exe as "administrator"?

i.e. Navigate to "C:\SteamClient\steamapps\common\Tower 3D Pro"

Or where ever your steam library is where you installed T3D.

Right click on the "tower3d.exe" > Compatibility tab > Under "Privilege Level", tick the box "Run this program as an administrator".

 

I would also check that you have run the Windows Voice Training Wizard:

KBOS or KPHL should take priority here in my opinion considering we have plenty of modern schedules already for the other airports.

Look for a file "output_log.txt" and upload it here in a post so we can figure out what is wrong.

We know from the Discord discussion it isn't the following:

- Is Real Traffic installed? Yes - Assuming it is up-to-date???? i.e. version sp6v12???
- Tried a snippet instead of a full day schedule. Yup - Still the same result.

Since we are in the tower3d.rec file already ... has anybody found the correct code to taxi via runways?

We had this question in another thread some time ago but the suggestions didn't work.

Place the following code into the rec file but this only works for arrivals:

Quote

#airplane1; TAXI TO TERMINAL VIA ;#runway1;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6
#airplane1; TAXI TO TERMINAL VIA ;#taxiway1;#runway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6
#airplane1; TAXI TO TERMINAL VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#runway1;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6
#airplane1; TAXI TO TERMINAL VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#runway1;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

Is there some way some one can come up with cross runway command 

To get aircraft to cross a runway, just give a command of "Hold Short of taxiway XX (or runway XX)" that they will never reach :)

[How is the Session Time (session stats) calculated?]

Hi all,

If someone knows the answer to this it would be brilliant.

You know at the end when you finish a session, on the session stats screen there is a "Session Time".

How is this calculated? Assuming the "in-game" means it is the total time of the session?

And, the important question here; if someone had paused the session (command panel pause button), does the session time pause as well or does it include this in the session time?

Query is related to the multiplayer pro challenge we have running currently as a few members are wanting to have this as a SP event as well. So I am trying to find a way to make sure that players are not "cheating" by pressing the command panel pause button.

Many thanks in advance :)

Where did you put this Pete in the file. Can it go anywhere?

Technically it can go anywhere but I kept it in similar order to the default.

i.e. I kept Pushback Approved together in a section ... etc

[I've heard of rumours of an edited "pushback" code]

Never mind clicked on it.

Code needs to be:

Quote

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1 AT ;#taxiway1
#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6
#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1; VIA ;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

and ...

#airplane1; RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

All works now Thank you

[I've heard of rumours of an edited "pushback" code]

OK the only command I cannot get to work is the following:

Quote

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED, EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1

Even tried without the comma after the "pushback approved":

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1

 

However all of the below work without issues now:

Quote

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1; VIA ;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

and ...

#airplane1; RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6 

 

How do I resolve the issues with the "Pushback Approved, expect Runway ## AT ##"?

Thanks :)

[I've heard of rumours of an edited "pushback" code]

The following do not work ...

Quote

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED, EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED, EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED, EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1; VIA ;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

This does:

Quote

#airplane1; RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6 

I'll try editing with what I put and re-test.

[I've heard of rumours of an edited "pushback" code]

Andrew, adding those lines does not seem to have worked. Is the code correct?

Just I can't do any voip commands when adding the lines above.

Quote

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED, EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway1;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED, EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED, EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1; AT ;#taxiway1; VIA ;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6

e.g. Is there meant to be a comma after "Pushback Approved"? I ask because the following default code has no comma:

Quote

#airplane1; PUSHBACK APPROVED EXPECT RUNWAY ;#runway1

And e.g.

Is this line missing a ";taxiway1" or is it meant to be missing?

Quote

#airplane1; RUNWAY ;#runway1; VIA ;#taxiway2;#taxiway3;#taxiway4;#taxiway5;#taxiway6 

 

[I've heard of rumours of an edited "pushback" code]

Cheers Andrew, that's exactly what I am after :)

Am I correct that it doesn't matter where I put this code in the .rec file ? :)

[I've heard of rumours of an edited "pushback" code]

Hi all,

I've heard from sources there is a edited pushback code which can be used for assigning runways, simply followed by a "continue taxi" command for ground.

Is this true? If so, could someone please provide the code :)

Many thanks :)

[Community Poll - Next Airport for RC Update? Voting deadline is March 17, 2019]

Looks like EDDM is going to be the winner here.

[EasyJet new and old livery]

Hi it is possible to do that by changing the code in the "[icao]_schedule.txt" file for the specific airport you want to see the diversity.

You would need to look up the code from the "[icao]_airlines.txt" file.

In the schedule file the code is in this format:

Quote

//dep iata,arr iata,aircraft,airline,fl no,arr time,dep time,duration,codeshare

For example:

Quote

LAS,LAX,E75, OO,3203,12:00,14:59,1, OO
LAS,YVR,73H, WS,1889,12:00,14:58,1, WS

Taken from KLAS and looking up the codes in the airline.txt file you can see that WN is Southwest and OO is Skywest.

I would assume that the code for the different liveries will be different but I am unsure. If it is the same airline code for each livery, then I'm afraid it will not be possible to select which livery is used and it will probably be just random.

PS: Highly recommend the use of custom schedules:

[Real Color "Survey" - New Liveries?]

I think the new Alaska livery has been implemented from what I have been seeing in the pro challenge testing; hasn't it?

I'll try to come up with a list when I find time.

1. I'd love to see Jet2.com Holidays livery at LEBL
2. The old Easyjet livery at LEBL / EDDM

Are you wanting just liveries? Or can we list aircraft also?

@battlehawk77

I had a no pushback today. Wednesday schedule NRS7013 06:12 dep did not pushback. From the ground movement/parking/docking chart it looks like it was from stand 13 or 15. I had to delete it. All other PB's worked fine.

Did you try a continue taxi command?

Also was there another aircraft on a taxiway behind this aircraft attempting to pushback?

I know the sim struggles to push an aircraft back if the path behind is blocked (doesn't have to be the taxiway directly connected to the gate - it can sometimes be the taxiway behind if it is close enough - linked with the aircraft collision zones.

[EGKK Crash]

The good old "have you tried turning it off and on again".

In your log above avast was preventing something.

Glad it's resolved.
