Great job, cleared up a few issues for me, can’t wait for the flow video.

Thanks

In reply to Barry Loveland. Agreed. That is our future plan.

In reply to Barry Loveland. BTW: I think it's a great idea to crowd source taxi-flows. Even if submissions are 80% accurate, it makes the experience 80% better than the autogen....

Awesome video Chris! Went back and fixed up some confusion for my AI aircraft based on the screencast. Can’t wait for the ATC Airport Flow video! Hmmm – maybe that “export for submission button” mentioned in the May ’12 blog entry will be in your next WED beta and we can start flooding Robin with taxi flows!

Keep up the great work!

In reply to ThierryB. Sorry, I don't speak any other languages. Perhaps someone in the community can translate or create their own tutorial.

Cool, but it’s possible a muli-language tutorial ?

In reply to Chris Serio. Yes, ramp types are setted to Misc. Also, helipads ramps are setted to misc with helicopter equipment but doesn't work at this moment. I hope it will be fixed in 10.20 ;-)

In reply to cestomano. Edit your scenery and set your ramp types (the water ones) to "misc". There's also a bug in X-Plane now preventing us from reading those types properly so the bug will still exist but that's in my court to fix. You should have your scenery ready for the fix which will likely be in 10.20.

Hi!

Thanks for tutorials; they helped me to finish taxi layouts in a scenery (Tagoror). It seems to work fine but… I have a problem:

The scenery has standard runways and, also, a water runway. If I land on main (concrete) runway following ATC, then ATC says me to follow taxi until arrive to… water parking! (you can see here and here)

…and I can’t avoid that at WED design time… Or I can?

If someone wants to test scenery with taxi layouts: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1126231/X-Plane/APT_TAGN_1.1b2.7z

Thanks!

In reply to Tom Curtis. Well that's actually a WED bug. You should not be able to pick "none" as an option. A gate has to have SOME kind of aircraft associated with it. X-Plane is not currently using these types yet but it will in the future.
