Hot air balloons, gliders and helicopters spawning in RAMP_GA parking

Version: 1.2.7.0

Frequency: Frequently

Severity: High

Bug description: Parking spots with all RAMP_GA types spawn aircraft which should not be spawned for this parking type. Radius is also ignored allowing planes with a larger wingspan than the defined radius.
Helicopters can also spawn in GA spots, despite having their own parking type. Gliders are particularly prone to spawn in parking spots they shouldn’t fit in based on the radius. I’ve seen gliders spawn in spots with 0.5m radius.
The only fix I’ve found is to set radius to 0m, but that prevents all AI aircraft from spawning there.

Screenshot shows a RAMP_GA_SMALL with a 3m radius spawning a hot air balloon.

I have also seeing, that aircrafts that has parking_type : DOCK, are still parking to ramp. It didnt do like that in MSFS2020.

Hello @Gobby

There is a fix candidate for this issue in SU2 beta 1.4.7.0.
Please have a look and let us know if this is good for you.

What was the fix. What should i assign hot balloons or helicopters parking spot, they not to spawn in aircraft parking spots?

They should no longer spawn on parking spots.

cool! I will try it now

They still are parking. I did try DOCK and MIL_COMBAT but still they are finding way to park in parking spot in flightplan. I want them just fly (AI OFFLINE). With gliders, i did again manage them to avoid parking just setting wing_span to 250. I dont want them to park either.

And hot balloons have these weird glow. And they dont move when injected to scenery in the air. Also helicopters dont move with AI OFFLINE traffic plans.

Are you using a traffic injector?

MSFS 2024 AI OFFLINE method. With my own GAmod flightplans.

Hi @FlyingRaccoon,
I still have gilders spawning at my glider airport outside of parking spots. In SU1 they were actually hovering above ground, I just tried SU2 beta and they are at least parked on the ground and resting in a more realistic way, and all are fully crewed. Is there a way to get rid of them?

This is a 2020-built airport available on Marketplace so you can try it out, CPL3.

Note that you can see the gilders even in the world map:

Try to disable all the AI gliders in content manager. Search “gliders worldwide”: There is 3 diffrent to disable. But problem is, even you disable those, next boot they are again enabled.
