Agreed. The way that I just did it was manually assigned gates and flip flopped sides of the airport, and then started the auto landing. Super fast airport now and I have no where near enough handling crew lol.
My next trial will include the old terminal, as I currently have AI Planes parked there to prevent planes from going that way. If that is viable to use again, this update will be so nice.
They did also fix L planes taxiing all the way to end of 26L/08R and taxiing past all the maintenance stands for the L gates at the old terminal, so that makes all gates viable for use again at MCT!
All M planes (except going to cargo terminal or T4) at LHR vacate where S/M planes for terminals 2 & 3 vacate now, a minor change but one which is making things much quicker. Shame M planes going to T4 can’t exit on the opposite taxiway as they do occasionally. Some of the updated paths have really made the bigger airports much quicker.
“Path system rework or tweaks”
This is a complete understatement to describe such an AMAZING change (dual, simultaneous landings at MCT)!
Thank you very much, devs, you guys are awesome!
For me it’s the best update in a long time!
There were no new airports or (for me) spectacular new aeroplanes, but the adaptation of the taxiways knocked my socks off! It’s great that all aircraft at LHR are finally taking sensible exits to T5 and even better that MCT is finally fully playable!!! Even with 2 runways, nobody would have expected that. I’m curious if SYD will get this at some point.
I’d like to see it split down the middle with maybe cargo on the N runway and the remote stands on the S runway. It would be great to land more L planes at once…
Or your idea with the regional stands grouped into red would also be good just to help prevent us having to stop landing L/X with S planes.
I just want to say thanks for this update. And especially for the other DHC models and fixing the door animation.
I love the little detail on departure that the spoilers go up before take off.
As a dash 8 fanatic, I would love to see the possibility of the elevators dropping after landing and then going back to neutral on departure.
The dash 8 is one of the few planes that do this
You mean 2.4.4 update? If you go to the top you see what is added and fixed.
Also MCT now has double landing and take-off runways, 2 new camera’s and the taxi paths are overhauled making for a massive improvement imo. There’s 2 new destinations added (look at flyboys comment in this thread)
