AirportOps:ATC controller doesn't consume arrival time estimate #13

Open mSparks43 opened 5 years ago

mSparks43 commented 5 years ago

This is a long standing bug that results in the breach of separation first seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RJ_NX2R-7w

In Jan 2018!! Basically ATC currently assumes an aircraft is "at" the position it is estimating, rather than be there at the time given. Needs to handle given time errors to fix this, but likely won't be until the Airport Traffic Management updates: https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/170459-airport-traffic-management/

start to go in after this month before I can fix it.

temporary fix of ai planes not requesting join more than 6 minutes before they are due to arrive in the airspace applied @ IFR v0.4.6. (should give min 3 minute separation)

This seems to be rearing its head again with approach approval times occasionally resulting in converging aircraft.

However adding proceedure for dealing with converging aircraft is on the todo list, so leaving this issue open for now.

This is slated for a fix inside #41
