Airport hotspots #28

Open mSparks43 opened 5 years ago

mSparks43 commented 5 years ago

Just seen the first "head on conflict" with airport traffic in taxi. I had suspected this is something that can occur (although there is already some mitigation), but this is the first time I've actually seen it happen.

Fits in with the discussion around airport traffic management: https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/170459-airport-traffic-management/

Which has seen some good progress.

Since it also occurred on an airport hotspot in the AIP, this will likely need more AI around identifying and handling airport hotspots.

scheduled for no sooner than 0.8.8, for now if you see this, just go around them or fly somewhere else, eventually the cause of the conflict will time out and airport operations will continue as normal.
