:white_check_mark: ISSUE DESCRIPTION

  1. Description of the issue: The AI is not right. I tried to spawn at Sydney international airport. There were aircraft taking off and landing in every runway and in all direction. Also when I spawned, AI planes were doing 360 or were upside down. I thought it was an improvement over MSFS 2020, but I think it’s worst.

Similar experience at KORD.

There was so much traffic that airline models were only partially loading in (wings with no fuselage taxiing by me), planes moving through buildings, etc… Performance was abysmal and eventually crashed to desktop.

The same thing is happening to me at Auckland International Airport! There were three doing 360s on the spot, speeding down the taxiway at random and more!

Traffic is not improved at all in the new simulator. The only thing thats new is the models and liveries. All the same bugs as in msfs2020.

Useless…

I feel like it is worse. Maybe it is a bug, because in the old sim, even if it wasn’t the right plane, it was still doing reasonable things most of the time. Not like what I have seen in the new sim with 360s and 3 plane “dances”, and planes flying backwards!
