    An Idea For Airport Developers and MSFS

    Hi J^3

     

    Maybe just to expand upon your idea in a slightly different way:

     

    1) Perhaps Orbx could consider constructing a small application that along with a  proprietary Orbx "People library"

    would allow a user to customize any Orbx airport with people/staff both on the tarmac and also inside airport buildings etc.

     

    This would of course require concurrence of that actual developer, but if they were on board, they perhaps could

    define appropriate libraries etc. that would be appropriate for the particular airport location and country/region.

     

    2) It could both be fun and allow users of Orbx products to build and enhance airport products in a unique and individual

    way if they so desired.

     

     

    3) In an "ideal world" the app would be able to populate at different levels depending upon time of day  (user selectable)

    as well as time of year (again user selectable) and possibly be tied into live weather i.e. weather delays

    would cause larger crowds etc.

     

    4) I'm thinking that the app would be somewhat automated (maybe an elementary AI product) to simplify user required input.

      In other words, you might specify a    region (say mouse selectable) and time and season, % of say business travelers, families ,

    airport/airline staff  etc. within the selected area and the app would then build a automated  but unique population on that basis. 

     

    To keep things interesting, the next time you decided to run the application it would randomly change . 

    This would ensure a uniqueness to each run of the application.

     

    5) And to push the envelope a little further, as MS2020 evolves and matures, the populations could become dynamic  rather

    than simply static avatars.

     

    Anyhow , just a thought for something a little different building on your thoughts  and wondering what others

    may think of the idea.

     

    I guess I view MS2020 not as what we can do today within the constraints of the past, but what we would like to do

    in the future.  In other words, not to ask why, but rather why not?

     

    Cheers & all the best to both of you for 2022.

    Pete

        

    I like your way of thinking! An app sounds like the way! Like the old Prepa3d control panels.

    Is there a way that we can have a switch to turn people on and people off around the airport buildings that are placed by Orbx Developers, especially those that are supposed to be traffic spotters and just hanging out at the airport?  I ask because when you fly at various times of the day, say, around dawn for example, in rainy/foggy/snowy or inclemment weather, I seriously doubt they would still be around at that time, say Pre- 8am or so.   Its highly unrealistic, and it does ruin screen shots when departing at those time frames.   Thanks for considering this in advance in the future and hope it is doable with MSFS,

    Happy to hear you got all CTD issue sorted Johnny. That opens up the door to all these wonderful shots of your flight!

    Departing KPWK from FlightFX to Washington DC.   CTD sorted out.  It was my controllers causing it, so the airport's perfect, as with every other Orbx Product.  :)

    The last two seats of our Citation has been reserved only, so there must be some very hush hush convo going on with our Passengers to Washington DC.

    Have a great day everyone!  Be good!  Less than a week to behave more before Christmas so Santa can bring you all those Flight Sim add-ons for presents!
