Dave March Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 John/Pete I'm not able to read any AI Traffic data, which is working just fine with FS9/FSX/P3D. The offset status document seems to indicate this data is available. So first thing I did was to run Pete's TrafficLook program, which I assume would be using the same offsets and that seems to be missing the ICAO info in the 'From' column and has a numeric value in the 'To' column, so something seems amiss.

John Dowson Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Hi Dave, so the AI traffic tables are populated, but there is a problem with the From/To columns...I will look into it. But how come you are not able to read any data? It must be there if it is displayed in TrafficLook! John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave March Posted November 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Sorry John I should have said, initially I'm checking for an ICAO match at the departure airport. I haven't tested anything else yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Dowson Posted November 13, 2020 Report Share Posted November 13, 2020 Does this apply to "real traffic" as well as AI? Does LittleNavMap show the routing? I know it also reads the traffic data via SimConnect, though it uses the 32-bit FSX SimConnect DLL. I suspect it's yet another limitation of the currently implemented SimConnect interface. If the information was arriving it would be available, but it's possible that requesting those things was causing errors in an earlier version of the MSFS SimConnect interface and so were (temporarily) suppressed in FSUIPC. If so I expect John can un-suppress them to see if they now work. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Dowson Posted November 17, 2020 Report Share Posted November 17, 2020 I've checked this now and FSUIPC7 is requesting this data, but it seems that the following AI string variables received via simconnect are always empty: AI Traffic State AI Traffic Assigned Runway Ai Traffic FromAirport AI Traffic ToAirport AI TRAFFIC ASSIGNED PARKING I will raise this with Asobo. I'm not sure at the moment why TrafficLook is showing an integer in the 'To' column when this should be empty.... John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave March Posted November 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hi John, Since we can't get the assigned runway in use at the destination airport using the traffic tables, nor can we retrieve weather info whilst enroute, is there any other way of doing so?

John Dowson Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Hi Dave, not until these issues have been resolved by Asobo. I'll raise a zendesk ticket on those AI sim variables being empty. All current SimConnect functions for weather have been deprecated, and we are waiting for a new interface to be provided.

Dave March Posted November 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Okay, thanks. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson Posted November 18, 2020 Report Share Posted November 18, 2020 Btw, I also checked the 'To' airport field. When the ICAO for the destination airport is empty, FSUIPC substitutes this for the AI aircrafts transponder code (when available). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
