Just Flight's FS Traffic for MSFS

It’s almost unusable

If something is not working, the whole thing is not working. This is not a game, it’s an aircraft simulation.

So why are Just Flight bothering to create their FS Traffic program for MSFS?

That is a completely unusable and non-productive definition of the word “broken”. By that definition if anyone finds anything wrong with any piece of software, that software is “broken”. Therefore that makes every piece of software in existence or ever going to be made “broken” by definition. No software is perfect. If everything is “broken” then the definition is useless.

Try again.

It doesn’t work…stop

It works for me. Maybe you’re using it wrong. I could help you with that if you want.

It’s definitely not broken but not working great either. And claiming that it’s not sim breaking, that’s highly subjective. Maybe it is not sim breaking for you, but it is for others. For instance not everyone plays the sim -on VATSIM and rely on what the traffic controller says or, they don’t want to land to a not vacated runway. These things might be important for people and it might definitely be sim breaking for them. I can write down at least 5 AI problems without even thinking much. There are companies working on making it better, but since they are so limited from the sim side, it is often not possible to do some things further.

Therefore I think people have right here to say when it is almost unusable, as well as you have rights for saying that it is not sim breaking. Highly subjective, for me it is also quite broken, but this is what we have. What people are mad (I believe) is that not enough SDK are provided and it ties developers’ hands. Just Flight is a definitely a place where I’d buy their mods without having need a trial, but I know there’s not gonna be much changed compared to AIG due to the limitations from the sim side.

In summary, I think there’s no need for war of words, it should be the sim limitations that we should be discussing in general, and this topics is not the right place at all. This is only about Just Flight’s FS Traffic for MSFS hence all problems related to the AI should go somewhere else, and we have many topics regarding to that.

Best,
Sam

For the same reason AIG and Aerosoft have.
To get rid of the fake Asobo liveries and populate the sky with realistic aircraft on realistic flight routes.

AIG and Aerosoft Simple Traffic do very well in that regard, and as soon as Asobo get their sh… - I mean stuff - together, they will be working brilliantly, I imagine.

I hope JF Traffic will be a mixture of the two. Almost as realistic and accurate as the cumbersome and massive AIG, but as simple to use as Simple Traffic.

Exactly, Archer374 - some people seem to lose sight of the goal and need reminding.

i agree with you but ai traffic is not working properly

Yes we know. It is what it is. Maybe one day far in the future we get something better.

Any news on Release? Are you in favour that Asobo fixes AI? I am so tired of waiting for a good AI software, just because Asobo dont care about it

Everyone is in favor of Asobo fixing the AI behavior. That question doesn’t make sense. It’s a question of resources and priority. What’s most important for Asobo to work on first? They can’t do everything in a week.

Happy Friday everyone! Apologies for the silence in recent weeks. Internally we have been working towards a new beta build, but this has taken a little longer than expected due to some rework of the fundamentals. Development of the fleet itself is progressing nicely with the widebody liveries almost complete. We have also been working on making the takeoff and landing distances more realistic and managed to improve the takeoff rotation of the aircraft so that aircraft do not appear to float off the runway as with the default AI.

We will be bringing you a fully fleshed-out dev diary in due course, but in the meantime here are a few screenshots of some of our newly painted widebody fleet.

Looks promising, hopefully there is an update for MSFS that will allow FS Traffic to have better taxi, rollout speed as well.

as well as planes flying at the correct altitude, don’t spin on the ground, etc, etc …

and lights…nav lights and beacons that actually work on the ground…taxi lights etc…not just the reflections

Another one we would like Asobo to fix. We did think about doing something with emissive texture’s to improve the look of things after dark that’s wouldn’t be ideal. There is a thread is ongoing here, [Mod Edit - vote solicitation language edited to allow post to remain up] - please participate to get this more visible.

Its good to see that the core traffic system is now getting some attention. The changelog for SU11 mentions changes to live traffic but I suspect some of these will affect product as the are likely core changes to the AI system.

Thanks
