No animation of passengers and pilots boarding in certain airports
« on: September 27, 2018, 01:47:20 pm »
Hi!
Thanks for the great work of GSX level 2. :D
However, I sometimes find there is no animation of pilots and passengers boarding in some airports, eg. PacSim RCTP.
I have applied the .ini file for the PacSim RCTP and there are SODE jetways.
However, when boarding with stairs, I see no passengers walking.
I see the bus come in, stopped, but no one gets off the bus to board and then the bus drove away..
Could it be something wrong?
Thanks!

The airport doesn't have an affect on passengers on stairs. If there was a problem with the scenery, the bus would probably not arrive (not being able to find a path to the parking) but, if you see the bus, there's no reason you couldn't see passengers ?

However, you said you see jetways: do they work ? If they are static, perhaps your problem is simply that GSX Level 2 is still in Trial.

Thanks for replying me. Yes, the jetways work well as SODE. And I do see the bus arriving and the door opened. However, no one got off the bus and the bus drove away later. Pretty strange. Oh, and my GSX level is not trial version, because I have activated it.
Any possible reasons?
Thanks!

Could be the airplane is empty ?

Try to uncheck the "Estimate Passengers number" option in the GSX Settings, and Restart Couatl from the menu. This will allow to confirm/change the passenger number calculated from the payload.

Hi! I have tested. First, the airplane is not empty and I tried other airliners and I got the same result.
Besides, this currently seems only happen in PacSim RCTP because with the same setting of a certain airliner, it is normal in other airports.
What can I do to fix this?
Thanks!

Hi! Virtuali,
I have found something. In RCTP, when boarding with stairs, the van drove in, no pilots or passengers get off the van or bus. However, the green bar at the top still showed "pilots boarded" or " passengers boarded".
For me, it only happens in PacSim RCTP.
Any solution? Thanks!

Hi! Virtuali,
I have come to a conclusion of my serial test. I find that this "no animation" issue occurs in all my airports in Taiwan, no matter default or 3rd party airport. However, it's normal in airports other than Taiwan(RC**)
This is so weird. I wonder under what circumstances would this kind of thing happen?
Scenery issue? or What?
Thanks a lot for your kind help!

What do you mean with "same over here" ? You too have no passengers ONLY in Taiwan ?

Hi! Virtuali,
I think there is some factor that's causing the absence of the animation, not necessarily in Taiwan scenery because I know some people have normal animation in Taiwan scenery, and some people have abnormal animation in other countries. That's why I wonder what the "common factor" might play the role.
Thanks!

That means the location is not the issue, which is to be expected.

As I've said, passengers requires a bus and stairs, or a SODE jetway. Of course, the airplane cannot be empty, otherwise GSX might estimate no passengers. Disabling the "Estimate Passenger Number" option might help understanding the issue.

I have unchecked the "Estimation" and input the number by myself so I am sure there are passengers, but still it occurs.... not quite a big thing, but  I just hope we can figure this out... There are bus, stair coming and the GSX status bar( green bar) said "pilots boarded" and "passengers boarded" as soon as the bus or van arrived and then drive away pretty soon.....

Is this airplane a supported one ? If not, have you made a proper configuration for it ?
