Starting Taxi on the Ramp

[Snowman]

Hi guys,

I want aircraft to start on the ramp while TAXI has been selected.
I think i remember this was possible by editing the BMSconfig?

i searched forum and config but could not find an answer.

Does anybody have it at the ready by any chance?

thanks a lot.

I want aircraft to start on the ramp while TAXI has been selected. ???

Why not just select RAMP … or am I missing something?

[roccio]

I think he was asking for the jet already started:D

:nevermind:

I assume if you change the taxi time to earlier then you’ll get moved into the jet when the AI has started the thing but hasn’t driven it anywhere yet.

I’ll try that this evening!

[Snowman]

That’s not the solution
it puts me on the taxiway: 8 min and 10 min

Can’t be done. Either u Ramp or Taxi.

Use this line in your config.

set g_bRampTaxiStart 1

@Falcas:

Use this line in your config.

set g_bRampTaxiStart 1

That looks like the one!

Thx

[Arty]

there is and the opposite?
set g_bTaxiRampStart 1

@Arty:

set g_bTaxiRampStart 1

Nope, there is only set g_bRampTaxiStart 1
What else would you need?
You can:

• Ramp on a taxispot with dark cockpit
• Start at a taxispot with read to taxi everything on (g_bRampTaxiStart 1)
• Start on the taxiway
• Start on the runway

I think that covers it all.

Dong…
Confused as you wrote it…

how this you wrote: - Start at a taxispot with read to taxi everything on (g_bRampTaxiStart 1)
is different from: - Start on the taxiway
???

We had:
Ramp
taxi
runway

you added
set g_bRampTaxiStart 1 which is taxi but with ramp conditions on the airplane at taxi point? or is it it places you at the ramp start point but all systems are on as if you selected the taxi option?

so we have
Ramp
taxi a. Normal as we knew
taxi b. New one g_bRampTaxiStart 1.
runway.

First to start with… this is nothing new, it has been in BMS from the start already

You are flipping it around all the time, but that is because of a type from my side. Not “Taxispot”, but “Parkingspot”.
The problem is that if you select TAXI out of the 3 options in the UI (RAMP/TAXI/RUNWAY), you will be on the taxiway close to the runway.
This is spoiling the feel for realism starting a mission like this.
So you want to start at a parkingspot or inside a shelter when you enter the 3D world. Although you don’t want to take the time to start up the jet.
Using set g_bRampTaxiStart 1 will take care of this.

Entering the 3D world you are on a parkingspot/ramp/shelter, however the jet is already started and you are ready for taxi.

Just give it a try and you see
