While this addon is cool and all and I really wanted it to work for Xbox and populated the airport with real looking planes with actual real liveries, this mod really needs to fix a bug.
Thing is, it sure does populate the airport, too much in fact to the point that after I land and am heading to the gate the tower has directed me to, there will be an aircraft in my spot. And just about every other spot as well. Also, when I do find an open spot and park, shortly after parking an aircraft will spawn directly on top of my aircraft. Every. Single. Time.
And when I spawn at the gate to actually start my flight, no less than like 30 seconds after spawning, the same thing happens. An aircraft will poof magically appear and then plop down right on top of my aircraft.
After spending the 12.99 or whatever for this mod, today out of frustration I uninstalled it and kinda wish I could get a refund since this isn’t what was described nor what the mod should do. After having it awhilez and then coming hear to look and see if this was a new problem and seeing posts about it from 2022 it’s obvious this mod has been out for some time, and yet the bug still exists. Which makes me think it’s probably an issue they can’t fix since I’m sure there’s some sort of timer and if/then statement in the code which probably reads something like once the timer reaches 0, it triggers the if(parking spot is empty) then(spawn random aircraft) statement and then resets the timer which is on a loop.
Unless they figure out a way to find out If the spot is occupied or soon to be occupied (if the towers instruction to a just landed aircraft sets some value to 1 instead of 0 that the currently vacant spot is soon to be filled) and can check what spots are filled (1) versus empty(0) then it’s never going to get fixed.
And running that little fun bit of code would add probably a lot of behind the scenes stuff that would load the CPU because of just how many airports you’re around that it has to check and how many spots it has to check which could be just a few to tons given the size of some airports… the extra processing would no doubt make the fps and stuff take a hit when the code is running every X amount of.minutes that are in it’s loop (which seems like a pretty quick loop or sequence they’ve programmed since less a minute or even 30 seconds elapses after spawning a plane spawns on top of my plane to fill my spot which when the code inevitably runs.
Please fix it tho or do something… I love the mod and don’t care about a refund or the cost. What it provides is something I want to have. just wanted to drop this line off so someone might help
