question

nr. 1/2:

you need to use the exclusionRectangle object with the excludeCarParking option checked

https://docs.flightsimulator.com/html/assets/images/Developer_Mode/scenery_editor/Objects/exclude_rect/excluderect_obj_2_props.png

please note that to see that in action your package must be compiled and placed in community (from the upcoming SU10 this is gonna be fixed and changes with exclusionerectagles will be online, yeahh!)

nr. 3:

you need to use a Services.xml

Airport Services Examples (flightsimulator.com)

create an assetgroup type SPB in PackagaSource/AirportServices/ICAO/Services.xml

where ICAO is your airport ICAO

this one should allow only boarding ramp and GPU at RAMP_GA_LARGE type parking

<SimBase.Document Type="ServiceFile">
<Service.ParkingSpaceServices>
<ParkingSpace name ="RAMP LARGE">
<ParkingTypes>
<ParkingEntry ParkingType="RAMP_GA_LARGE"/>

</ParkingTypes>
<IdleWorkers>
</IdleWorkers>
<Services>
 <Service name ="BoardingRamp" Filename="Shared\BoardingRamp\BoardingRamp" AIType="BoardingRamp" Frequency="1" SpawnDistanceParkingRadiusFactor="1.0" SpawnDistanceAdditionalOffset="4.0" SpawnAngleFromParking="20" HeadingFromParkingHeading="50"/>
<Service name ="GroundPowerUnit" Filename="Shared\GroundPowerUnit\GroundPowerUnit" AIType="GROUNDPOWERUNIT" Frequency="0.25" SpawnDistanceParkingRadiusFactor="1.0" SpawnDistanceAdditionalOffset="4.0" SpawnAngleFromParking="20" HeadingFromParkingHeading="50"/>
</Services>
<SleepingActivities>
</SleepingActivities>
</ParkingSpace>

Hello mamudesign .

Thanks for information.

pic.1-2 exclusionRectangle works :)

pic.3 I created SPB right as you wrote. Build package. I see into my Package the SPBs folder ( inside services.xml ) and also into the "layout.json" . But without succes :( When I load sim with new package in comunnity folder, the Pushback Cars are still there :(

Martin

I could have been a little bit less cryptic, i know!

in your PackageDefinitions.xml or via the project editor you need to add an SPB asset group, like this

<AssetGroup Name="mySpecialServices">
<Type>SPB</Type>
<Flags>
<FSXCompatibility>false</FSXCompatibility>
</Flags>
<AssetDir>PackageSources\AirportServices\</AssetDir>
<OutputDir>AirportServices\</OutputDir>
</AssetGroup>

the, inside the PackageSources\AirportServices create an ICAO\ (your airport icao!) folder

copy the provided code inside a file called Services.xml

compiling, you will end up with a file called Services.spb inside

yourPackageFolder/AirportService/ICAO/Services.spb

Hello mamudesign .

Thanks for your willingness.

Please, can you check attached screenshots from my project into the zip folder? I thing that somewhere is still something wrong, but I dont know where.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Martin, the entry in the PackageDefinitions must be exactly like this

(Only AssetGroup name is up to you), all the other stuff must be like the one provided! This is because with the new Services.xml you are going to override the default one, so the default paths needs to be perfect

<AssetGroup Name="mySpecialServices">
<Type>SPB</Type>
<Flags>
<FSXCompatibility>false</FSXCompatibility>
</Flags>
<AssetDir>PackageSources\AirportServices\</AssetDir>
<OutputDir>AirportServices\</OutputDir>
</AssetGroup>

Hello mamudesign .

Thank you for information.

I tried make it according your information and also acording:

https://docs.flightsimulator.com/html/Content_Configuration/Environment/Living_World/Airport_Services/Airport_Services_Examples.htm

Truth be told, I'm at the end with ideas :)

May I please kindly ask you for check of my project?

There is still something wrong, but I dont know where.

Sorry that I disturb you with my issue, but I thing, that I can not fix it without help. If you would please take the time, I would be very grateful.

Thank you very much in advance for your willingness.

Have looked into your files

Your PackageDefinitions was still wrong, in the output dir you have

<OutputDir>AirportService\</OutputDir>

While you should have

1. <OutputDir>AirportServices\</OutputDir>
2. 
   

anyway, even with this correction in place the , the script doesn't work either

Wich is unexpected

As per https://docs.flightsimulator.com/html/Content_Configuration/Environment/Living_World/Airport_Services/Airport_Services.htm

Those Services.xml should override the one in the /Shared

so the provided code in my first reply should add ONLY (because of overriding) the stairs and the GPU. And because of overriding, should remove the pushback and the baggagecart (that are in the /shared services.spb)

Maybe @_Boris or @FlyingRaccon can investigate on the topic , will provide some further samples myselft

(to date, no ms/Asobo content is using those services to compare with, except a small airstrip in Suisse or Germany that has a service to remove anything from the field, correct being a grass strip)

@Nocturne, doubled lines here to fix

Hello mamudesign and Boris.

Sorry for late reply. Holiday time :)

Thank you very much for help. Finally it works :)

Now just make details. I mean position of Stairs, GPU and so on.

Thanks a lot again.

Martin
