No AI traffic

by **SP-KOK** » Sat Oct 16, 2021 4:20 pm

Since yesterday I noticed that planes in AI traffic stopped working, I logged in at various airports but no aircraft showed up. Is this a general problem at FG yesterday ????

I'm not aware of anything that could cause AI to fail on a certain day.

I think that he SP-KOK meant that something has happened that caused the AI to fail, and that something happened sometimes after yesterday.

I had the same problem. For whatever reason, lots of .html and .xml files in my .fgfs/TerraSync folded had changed to

"This service is down due to constuction work
I try to get it online as soon as possible
Please check again later.
Thanks for under standing. "

I got my AI traffic back by disabling the automatic scenery download and copying the AI/Traffic folder from my fgdata/AI/Traffic to .fgfs/TerraSync/AI/Traffic

OMG. Ok AAAAAAH. I'll forward it to the Mailinglist. One of the terrasync nodes was down and not taken out of the list. This will heal since the host is back.

Was this supposed to "heal" by now I still dont have any ai traffic?

Thanks,

John

I would have expected it to have healed. Can you please send a .dirindex file? Maybe they are now corrupt and Terrasync stops updating. Maybe you could upload a zip of the Airports folder somewhere?

the .dirindex should be updated from the server content, shouldn't it?

by **portreekid** » Wed Oct 20, 2021 7:30 pm

It "should" ;-)

Since it seems to be failing though. One reason might be that the .dirindex might be corrupt.

This might explain it, my .dirindex file contents.

I'll take that over the great divide.

for now, i would rename (only) the top level .dirindex file in your Terrasync directory... that should let FG rebuild it which should trigger a rebuild of the entire tree as you fly...

by renaming the file, it will allow you to put it back in place and test a/the fix for this particular case... FG should already detect it and rebuild it but apparently something goes awry... it is being discussed on the mailing list...

Deleting my terrasync "ai" folder did the trick, I once again now have AI traffic back now. But now they are doing something strange again...lol. Upon approach to KCLT 36L they are disappearing into the ground and then surfacing from below the threshold of the runway thus reappearing as if acting in a dolphin like manner. Has anyone ever seen this?

Thank-you
John
