Suggestion: Engine clear mark
« on: July 14, 2024, 02:43:53 pm »
Hello Umberto,

I have a suggestion for the Airport position configuration. Many parking positions have a red line which marks the start up position of the engines during pushback. Since GSC knows the engine position, is it possible to set up this marking point for every parking position so the ramp agent can give the cockpit an "engines clear for start" command, when the engines pass the red line?

You'd think that would be something the scenery developers would handle.

I'm not talking about the physical marking on the tarmac, I wanna tell GSX where this line is within the parking spot configuration menu, so the ramp agent tells me when the engines are clear to start.

I think is a nice suggestion, but of course it will require editing all parking positions in all airports with a custom profile.

Thats right, but I think it is viable, some airport configurations have several individual pushback routes for every gate, that is much more work to configure.
