If I include e.g. Bangkok Airways Logo in the _USER folder and say it must be used at VTBS, the normal THAI Airways from Staircase_02 will be shown, because there is also an entry for VTBS. Is the priority of the normal folders (not _USER) higher?
By adding an airport ICAO code to a vehicle of a specific operator, you are not saying it "must" be used at that airport. You are only giving it a certain score, giving an equal chance of being randomly selected against other operators at that airport/parking with the *same* score.
All folders have the same priority so, if you cannot see your operator (not even trying many times, to reduce the chance you were just unlucky on the random draw), it's because another operator has an HIGHER score, so your vehicle will never included in the random draw.
An higher score against a full ICAO code, it's the result of having codes in the atc_parking_codes section of the scenery AFCAD.
I have delete VTBS from Staircase_02 (then it runs wonderfull), but with the next update I am sure, that I can do it again.
That's the wrong way of doing it...although it would probably work, but of course you'll have issues on the next update. And, you cannot change just a single vehicle, you must change ALL of them.
I have also tried to use a specific airlines assingment (like BOU in the _User folder for my Bangkok Airways logo). I put this BOU in the AFCAD of the affected parking position too
This is the correct way of doing but, again, if the other operator (the one you don't want) has its own codes in the AFCAD, you are just now giving them an EQUAL chance of being selected. The only way to be sure your own operator will always be selected, is to ADD the parking code of your operator to the AFCAD, and REMOVE the code for operators you don't want from it.
This way, your operator will get an higher score and, lacking any competitors, it will always be selected.
and in the aircraft.cfg file of my A319 from Aerosoft, but they don't use the repaint .
As explained in the PaintKit documentation, the atc_parking_codes in the aircraft.cfg file doesn't have ANY effect on the selection of the ground operator. And rightly so, because it would result in the unrealistic assignment of your own home operator *everywhere*, which is wrong. Instead, the atc_parking_codes in the aircraft.cfg file affects ONLY the selection of logos over ULD containers, so you will see containers of your own airline, and (more importantly) they will be the *same* on departure AND arrival.
In any case, the whole operator selection method has been improved in the latest Couatl 3 Public Beta here:
http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,11796.0.htmlThat has a new feature that will let you choose between all allowed operators on a certain airport, so your choice will be less dependent on random selection.
I have seen on your Webpage, in EDDM a blue Staircase with roof. I have tryed and tryed, but I don't find that blue livery in the Simobject folders. I miss on all my staircases the roof too. What I do wrong?
GSX objects might have other constraint, for example related to the height of the door, in order to offer a variety of different vehicles depending on the airplane used. That staircase will only appear on airplanes with doors higher than 3.30 meters so, if you always use the same airplane, and its doors are lower than that, you will never see that vehicle.
