Tons of baggage to unload with an empty flight
« on: October 21, 2022, 04:29:12 am »
Hi I was doing a touch and go flight with limited fuel and no passenger in my flight plan. Yet when I click deboarding after landing I had one guy coming out (passenger) before the crew. More surprising was to have all these baggage unloaded off the plane. There should be a logic when there is no passenger and no cargo that deboarding only involves cabin crew (pilots) leaving the plane. No?

Yes, there's always a minimum of 1 passengers, because setting 0 passengers caused other issues.

That's normal too.

A while ago, GSX had a variable number of cart depending on the payload, and this confused users because either them or the airplane code itself was changing the payload after Boarding/Deboarding, causing GSX assuming an empty airplane, thus showing only 1 cart ( because even in this case, the minimum was 1 cart ) so, in order to not have users assuming GSX had a "bug" showing too few carts, we set the number to a fixed value of 3 now.
