GSX Options (timings)

[alpha117]

Just wondering if anyone has changed the default values?

If so what are 'more realistic' values (fueling, PAX etc)

[AaronMyers]

Just changed mine, but I'm a new user and I'm only on my first flight with the new values so we'll see. I'm trying 1 second per passenger for boarding which wasn't bad. Still a little quick, but better than default. Fuel I changed as well, but did not try the refueling on this flight.

I'll be interested to hear others response too.

Hi Aaron,

yea, would be interested what others think. I will change mine tommorrow, and let you know how it went

Tried to up the loading of passengers, but I need to set it to a higher value...

Still no cargo to the fwd cargo hold on the NGX btw...

These are my minimum settings to match the 10 min. boarding time of FsPassengers as close as possible

boarding = 540 sec's
deboading = 400 sec's
fueling = 300 sec's

Thanks

going give them a try

Doing a bit of research I concluded that standard fuel pumping systems would give me a refuelling time factor of 0.057 (yep, that's the value you put on GSX).

As for the passengers boarding I've just set a min. time boarding of 500sec (8mins), fair enough...

[AaronMyers]

Minimum times simply make the boarding times the same every time though. One of the interesting things was that this time was dynamic based on the number of passengers correct? If so, then it may be nice to have better values for time per passenger so that the time varies by load rather than a static load time.
