But can you also please consider the possibility of a 3rd party ATC plug-ins?

The XP10 API would require following functions:-
* Turn off default XP10 ATC
* Create/destroy aircraft objects
* Set waypoints (air and ground, including target speed and altitude and maybe rate of acceleration/ascent/descent, eg 800 fps)
* Get taxiways and parking spots for airport.
* Get list of aircraft (including multi-player aircraft) within given radius of location

This would let a plug-in do the following:-
1) ATC for players aircraft
2) ATC for multi-player aircraft
3) ATC for "A.I" aircraft controlled by the plug-in.

The sky and airports could be filled with aircraft following real life flight plans. Resources such as "World Of AI" could be leveraged for flight plans and aircraft models.

Kind regards

Many of us GA pilots like to fly around and contact ATC services whenever we happen to need to require their services just like in real life. Also a voice recognition based ATC system would be great and add so much to the realism.

Thanks

Mike

– Rotorcraft
– Glider
– Lighter than air
– Powered lift
– Powered parachute
– Weight-shift-control
– Sponge Bob

I think the answer is obvious.

Sounds awfully like teasing to me.
