I have seen the same thing. I witnessed it yesterday after the update at KLAS and KDAL. I used Real/Live Weather as well as Rex Weather. Does Asobo/MS even test these updates before sending them out?
I may have an idea on what is going wrong here. That could be the reason why not many already discovered this.
If you happen to approach or be at an airport during a wind change from one to the opposite direction, ingame ATC changes the runways for AI / live traffic.
I presume that something is different with AAU2, so ingame ATC sees the opposite runway now as a total different runway and just doesn’t prevent two planes to land / takeoff on the same runway (one cleared from before the wind change and one after the wind change).
So in this time period, you can see planes ‘crashing into’ each other on one runway.
I’m not sure if this was the case before AAU2. I can say I never saw this behaviour before, so I assume it’s post AAU2.
AIFlow from flightsim.to might help a little here. You can force AI to land on a runway you assign. Make sure it’s started with the sim.
Edit: This program was updated 18th June to fix some of the issues you mention. See the change log.
Isnt AI supposed to follow Metar and wind directions?
I think that i see it more now then in previous updates. A lot of AI doesnt follow the live traffic/flightradar path. Even with winds gusting more then 30 knt the land with tailwind…
It does. But I assume when a wind change happens, the previously cleared aircraft still land with the old direction and the newly cleared aircraft aren’t held back - so both planes land on the same runway in opposite direction (same with takeoff btw)
