Hello Umberto,
I am trying to figure out why the new LPMA scenery .py (or SKBO scenery 3rd party .py) files are not recognizing the MaddogX MD-82. Focusing only on the new LPMA scenery from Atelic and for Parking Spot A10 it lists the following;
10 : (MainApronNames, customOffsetMain2), where customOffsetMain2 data shows;
@AlternativeStopPositions
def customOffsetMain2(aircraftData):
table = {
0: 0,
318: 0,
319: 0,
320: 0,
321: 5.40,
736: 0.90,
737: 0.90,
738: 0.90,
739: 0.90,
757: 4.30,
321: 6.30,
82: 8.10,
83: 8.10,
88: 8.10,
Meaning, there are specific stop positions for the MD80 type. Still, when I reposition the default LSH MD-82 to gate A10, GSX places the nosewheel on the default "0" stop position at the spot, and not the dedicated MD80 stop position which is much further forward. This is what the MaddogX aircraft.cfg (located in the main LSH MaddogX folder ..\SimObjects\Airplanes\MaddogX) states;

Which leads me to believe that everything should be correct. The airplane is the default one, and all user customizations have been removed to make sure I am not screwing up anything. GSX Airplane Customization confirms only GSX internal, and Developer provided Data is available. And that the Developer Provided Data is being used. "ICAO TYPE" field in the Airplane Customization windows is blank.
The couatl error log shows this:

Do you maybe know why the MD82 (or MD83 for that matter) are not moving to the correct stop position based on the .py file?
Thanks,
