Fort Hood - Featuring the Combat Aviation Brigade, 1st Cav

[bismarck]

Hi Click, great job.
I have a problem at KGR2. There are a couple of parking spots unconnected, sorted out with ADE. The main problem is with landing helos, they disappeared at Hold short node, exiitng the rwy. It's just me?

I will take a look at the files when I get home tonight. A couple of questions to help me sort out what is happening:

1) I assume they are landing on the taxiway runway and not the main runway, is this correct?
2) are they helicopters that were party of another release or ones that came with this project?
3) I'm guessing there are still parking spots open when they disappear?

[bismarck]

1) Yes
2) both (AH-64 and UH-60)
3) Yes. If there are no Parking available, it desappears on the runway

Must be some conflict with KGRK AFCAD, if I delete it, KGR2 works fine

Aircraft vanishing after passing the hold-short node after landing means they are unable to reach their assigned parking spot from their current position.

Problem I have is the arrivals all carry out a TnG and vanish, the departures sit at the hold point then vanish.

Another anomaly, at KGR2 active runway was 34 at the same time KGRK was 15.

Click, if I delete the runway 34 at KGRK, the landing helos at KGR2 go the parking spot, but on the other hand, some building appear near the runway at KRG2.
I stop testing because I don't know how the two airport are built and how they are related one to each other.
If you need further tests, let me know.

Definately something going wrong with the KGR2 AFCAD file. I just watched a pair of AH-64s taxi to the hold short point and sit there until they disappeared. I'll tear into this tonight and see if I can get an update out quickly.

[Firebird]

Which runway has the problem?

The reason I ask is that the hold short node at the 34 end is facing the wrong direction as are the ones at the taxiway exit points. Could this be the cause?

[clickclickdoh]

The problem has a lot more to do with me being an idiot... When I started the project, I tried to make KGRK with a STOL runway for the helicopters. When it became apparent it wasn't going to work I split KGRK into KGRK and KGR2, for the helicopters. Then I promptly forgot to delete the STOL runway in KGRK. It's still sitting there buried under the taxiway, and confusing the heck out of the AI. I've deleted it and made some pattern changes to fix the flyby and never return touch and go's. AI is now behaving properly in my tests. I should have an updated package uploaded tonight.... If I can ever stop listening to Disturbeds cover of The Sound of Silence.

All it's fine for me.
Thanks, Giorgio

Never, ever, having seen more than 1 helicopter at a time, in real life, I would say that it must be some thrill, and a privilege, to walk across the apron with all that hardware on view!

Even in the sim, it takes my virtual breath away.

Thanks for the opportunity to gape in awe!

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I couldn't figure out where else this would go. My question is, where is this package? I tried to download it but got a 404 Error. Can anyone please help me? Kindest regards, Jeremy

Fort Hood's 1st ACB is actuall deployed in Europe Their heli comes to Belgium by boat (at Zeebruges port), then fly to EBCV Chièvres AB (the US airbase used for Shape/Nato HQ) and today, ther fly from Belgium to their base in Germny. The sky of Belgium look like Apocalypso Now today with more than 75 helis flying together
