Change order of services
« on: January 28, 2023, 05:28:04 pm »
I wish there was some way to change the order of the services (boarding/refueling/catering) etc. when in automated mode.  It would be better if refueling happened prior to passenger loading.  Seems odd that the re-fueling truck comes after passengers are all boarded.

Hi,

this is a topic that needs to be addressed in a bit bigger/general way to Umberto.
GSX is a very nice addon and many of us can't imagine flightsimming without anymore.

But the way GSX is still working seems and looks quiet outdated. If you're on an airport and see how real crew's are handeling an airplane once its arrived and prepared back ready for departure, you will see that many things happens at the same time and therefore not synchrone.
I would love if you could add more animations to the ground people that it doesnt look like mirrored and every time the same, that stairs didn't move without any small tug moving it away, pushback truck isn't on your gate once you turn into the gate after arrival, but it arrives once you ask for pushback/departure. Or you can choose if a jetway is available if you want to use the jetway or stairs (for RYR ops for example).
We still need some more services to be done like cabin cleaning, water car etc.
Car modelled needs updates, the crew bus is since its implementation odd. I never saw anything near that crew bus on any german airport yet. Therefore Lufthansa uses complete busses in their design as crew busses in Frankfurt for example.

It is time (with MSFS especially) to get GSX more flexible and operations more realistic and more things at the same time done.

Regards,
Timm

The reasons why some operations cannot be made at the same time has been explained so many times, and it's because it would be way more complex than already is to prevent clashes between vehicles, considering how limited the parking space usually is.

These were the old reasons, but now in MSFS we have a new reason to not even try doing that, and it's the overall maximum Simobject limit, which can be already reached just by adding 3rd party AI traffic with high settings, but it will be even worse if GSX tried to do more services simultaneously, resulting in a further increase of the number of obiects in the scene, making the problem even worse.

Sounds lovely. Thx Asobo ;D
