Grading

  • Each parking slot is graded based on the level of detail contained in its GSX profile.
  • When you load a profile, you can immediately see how detailed it is thanks to the grading system.
  • The grading also reflects how many gates or parking positions include precise coordinate data for their placement.

Suggestions

It offers targeted suggestions to help enhance the accuracy and completeness of each slot’s data.

Editing Data

Positions for objects or routes can be adjusted at any time, without entering the flight simulation itself.

When Walkers and Passengers paths cross, GSX produces unexpected results.

In addition, this profile did not include an essential:

'passengerentergatepos ='

Passengetentergate scan only be placed in locations which contain sufficient data to make it valid for GSX.

If you do decide to add it ,GSX throws an error with an 'isolated parking' warning causing the whole profile to become inoperative! You can still add Passenger waypoints , BUT with out an entry gate the passengers get very confused !

Tip

To check if your profile is 'running' , add a a few walkerwaypoints as they are not affected.
