Both the nav lights, landing lights and strobe lights turns off right at the moment ai touches down on runway. Nav lights should never turn off and strobes and landing lights should be on as long the aircraft is on the runway.
I’m simply not seeing that. I just tried the MSFS online live traffic at EGLL and all the moving aircraft had their lights on, both in the air and on the ground. Then I tried AIG injected traffic, and likewise, they all had their lights on.
Many ( I can’t say all because I haven’t paid attention to all of them ) AI and - I noticed earlier - multiplayer aircraft seem to turn all their lights off as soon as they’re in contact with the ground. I noticed a MP a/c spawn in & only had taxi lights until they took off, which makes life slightly more confusing.
We’ve noticed this behavior whilst testing FS Traffic. It appears that lights do work on ground with the light splashes from taxi, landing, beacon and nav lights all being visible. What is broken is the light halo’s/flares. As soon as an aircraft lifts off the ground they suddenly appear and then disappear again when the aircraft touches down.
I am experiencing the opposite. I have AI aircraft landing with lights, but the aircraft is missing. Maybe all the aircraft gone missing in the triagle, are now coming home.
Regarding this issue I made a lot of testing and would like to share my findings with the community:
The only way I managed the lights to work proberly on ground is by setting the option “Skip pre-flight cinematics” to ON. If I switch it to off the lights of the aircraft on ground doesent’t work propperly. BUT this only works in a verry close radius to the players plane. Meaning: I have then lights on my departure Airport but afre 20nm or so the lights of aircraft on ground are gone. Reinjecting the aircraft doesent solve it. This behaviour is regardeless an the modells of MSFS default, AIG or FSLT. Also an empty community folder does not change anything. Also using vPilot, SWIFT or MSFS default traffic does not change anything. I watched some Youtube streams and it seems to me that some others have the same issue.
With the updates coming to AI traffic in SU11, I hope this issue gets addressed. As someone who flies at night a lot, the disappearing AI lights on the ground is a real immersion breaker!!
