This is an odd one.
This is KSNS by Spinoza.
Here is the Comanche parked at parking spot 4 just a few days ago (in SU4 release):
And here it is in SU5 beta:
I’m not seeing this 90° issue at the usual parking spot at auto-gen KPRB, so it seems like it isn’t a universal issue.
Which airport are you seeing this with, and is it 3rd party?
I noticed this at KBNG. Was wondering why all of a sudden I spawned facing the wrong direction.
3rd party or auto-gen?
Third party
UUDD, 3rd party from Marketplace. The Gates look OK.
3 of 3 third party airports.
It will be interesting to see how this progresses.
Just for curiosity since I don’t have the addon, I spawned at URMN ramp 6 and aircraft is correctly positioned. So it seems to confirm issue only impact 3rd party addons (eventually handcrafted airport ?).
I’m curious about the included hand-crafted airports.
I reverted to SU4 due to the Tobii bug, so I cannot test further.
I have tested with the B737 at EHAM & TNCM, 2 different positions and aircraft was correctly positioned. Don’t know what could trigger a change in the spawning orientation.
In the addon there are 2 Ramp 6 - 6B and 6A. 6A is where the plane turns its nose towards the building, like on your screenshot.
at 6B the nose must look to the right side, instead it looks to the left side.
Currently yes, it concerns only 3rd party (by the way the 1st party URMN is not correct from the beginning, “B” ramps are missing, but this is another case).
Since there is no 6A & 6B at the default airport, I have tested some spots and at #2 I get a 90° position:
I cannot determine if it was like this prior SU5 Beta or not.
@NixonRedgrave : since you are back to SU4, could you test spot #2 at URMN ?
Looking at the tug and the GPU car I can say that this plane spawned rotated left 90. So, 1st party is also affected.
It will be a few hours, but I will check.
It appears that in SU5 the parking spot is 90° anti-clockwise.
Here it is in SU4:
This needs to be entered as a bug.
It is happening with some default airports too. There are a handful of spots I load in to for testing, and 1 at KJFK the plane was turned about 30 degrees, repeatable. (Stock, no addons)
Could you provide the spot # at KJFK ?
