Multiple aircraft taking off from runway at once.

[FastCargo 412]

So whats the correct syntax here?

 

I try to takeoff from the following aibase, with me and a wingman. CTD at %100 load. Do I need to rest of the takeoff definitions, and thats it?

 

[Runway001]
Heading=0
Offset=0,0
Length=2000
Width=45
TouchDownHead=0,800
TouchDownTail=0,-800
LaunchAll=TRUE

TakeOff[01]=5,-740
TakeOff[02]=-5,-700


ParkingChance=100
ParkingMaxSpan=18.0
Parking[01].Heading=0
.
.

 

I think you still need the Taxi spots...

be great if we could have QRA slots on the sides of the main runway with the jets rolling one after another...

Thanks FC. That makes the numbers a bit more understandable. But based on your info, it doesnt look like we would be able to create an echelon takeoff. #2 and the rest will try and follow my line down the runway and veer to the left or right, instead of staying on center.

 

Bummer.

The only way to get close to such a thing is using these parameters:

 

LaunchAll=TRUE

 

TakeOff[01]=5,-740

TakeOff[02]=-5,-700

etc, etc..

 

But the LaunchAll=TRUE parameter is all or nothing, either the aircraft must all use the Takeoff[xx] parameters (in which case each aircraft must have a Takeoff slot - up to 16 that ALL have to be on the runway), or go back to the taxiway shuffle.

Thanks again for the assistance. I've got some time tonight, so I'll go back to testing.

 

Cheers!

Wow, really looks awesome! Hope it can be made to work in the future!

FastCargo,

 

could you please explain how you made the aircraft takes off as shown on your screenshots?

 

I've read your posts several time but I didn't understood what file you modified nor what you modified in it.

Open airbase ini file for example GERMAN_AIRBASE1.ini & copy this in front of TaxiHead values:

 

//Runway1

[Runway001]

Heading=0

Offset=0,0

Length=2500

Width=90

TouchDownHead=0,918.5

TouchDownTail=0,-918.5

;TakeOffHead=0,1300

;TakeOffTail=0,-1300

LaunchAll=TRUE

 

TakeOff[01]=15,-1100

TakeOff[02]=-15,-1100

TakeOff[03]=15,-1130

TakeOff[04]=-15,-1130

TakeOff[05]=15,-1160

TakeOff[06]=-15,-1160

TakeOff[07]=15,-1190

TakeOff[08]=-15,-1190

TakeOff[09]=15,-1220

TakeOff[10]=-15,-1220

TakeOff[11]=15,1250

TakeOff[12]=-15,-1250

TakeOff[13]=15,-1280

TakeOff[14]=-15,-1280

TakeOff[15]=15,-1310

TakeOff[16]=-15,-1310

 

TaxiHead[01].......................

 

It's for max 16 a/c and not big ones like bombers. Be awared that after permission to take off all a/c will move on in short periods.

Thank you very much Kulbit80.

 

By reading FastCargo as he wrote that he modified "only one ini file", I was searching for a global modifier somewhere in the Flight or Object cats
