“Have you planned any default pushback for the full Airline experience?”

can you answer this inquiry too?

I’m relaxed, just wondering how much functional /newer features will be in v-10 on mass scale. jetways that don’t move, minus the plugin auto gate ( which is a pain) is rather un realistic and annoying. i’ll fold on that, fine.. but to get most major airports( even just US) empty again is very disappointing. After over a year of delays and waiting/ slow put out of information, I’d expect v-10 to be full blast amazing; hence ‘realistic” airport.

Peter, I edited your post, replaced WorldEditor with WorldMaker.

However we *could* edit quite a bit with World Maker. X-Plane 8 was better for flying and the scenery was vastly improved, but we *couldn’t* edit it as World Maker was depreciated (and beaches were missing in the Southern Hemisphere!). X-Plane 9 is great for flying, has great scenery and the editing tools are getting there. X-Plane 10 will no doubt also be great for flying, have great scenery and it looks like it’ll have some great editing tools too. While perhaps calling it the Holy Grail is over the top, it sure is getting close. This is fantastic work Ben. It looks like your years of hard graft are really paying off.

Jetways are objects in the library – use them in your own custom scenery, or make a library with replacements to customize.

Every post in this blog double my satisfaction of having switch from FSX to Xplane. XP9 is awesome, V10 will get us the true experience.

Have you planned any default pushback for the full Airline experience?

Picky question: Are jetways objects same as other objects, meaning we can modify them? Many airports have custom jetways with ads on them…

Individual attached OBJs (on a fac, road network, or autogen scene) get their own LOD. Facs can have their own LODs too.

Can the objects attached to either have independent LOD thresholds from their parent?
