Having 2 jetways at one gate FSX
« on: December 07, 2018, 01:08:43 am »
I have EDDM added afcad.  Looking at the airport there are gates that have 2 jetways.  So I added them to the the gates.  When I parked a 737 at one, the only gate it offered me was jetway 2 not jetway 1.  So of course it went through jw 1 to get to exit 1.  If I go to a single jetway gate, I select it and it works.  Do I need to swap the 2 around so if I have only 1 door I get the correct one?

Jetway 1 and Jetway 2 are just names, they are not tied to any door, just to the door they can resolve to so, the only reason you might have to swap them, is to have an easier to remember name, but you can achieve this by just giving the jetway a friendly name.

OK, however it only gave me 1 choice.  Of course I don't usually use heavy spots for 737's.

When there's more than 1 jetway, GSX will give you only the choice of jetways that it knows in advance will work on your airplane, in its current parking position.
