Re: Feature requests

Feature request! In the USA, there are many airports. The map display can get cluttered with the airport identifiers, making it hard to read the traffic tags. Therefore, how about a feature to exclude airports on the map with runways shorter than a certain cutoff, maybe user-specified, or fixed at s...

Re: Updated active runways API example

The display on Windows 10 is much improved!

Question for a new python user: once this app starts running, how do you terminate it? (Other than closing the console window)

Re: Find the active runway?

I'm using Windows 10 here. I didn't post this originally in the "feature request" section because I thought it was too far outside the scope of RealTraffic, and now I'm amazed that you put it together so fast. Thanks! Now I will be bold and submit a real feature request: On the RealTraffic...

Got it running, thanks! My output looks a little different than yours, just FYI: Runway Analysis: RWY HDG(T) HDG(M) Headwind Crosswind Approaches (30min) -------------------------------------------------- ←[31mRW04L 039° 042° -1.0 +5.9 0 (0 active: )←[0m ←[31mRW04R 041° 044° -1.2 +5.9 0 (0 active: )...

Re: Find the active runway?

I have never used Python before, so please excuse the beginner's question. I downloaded and installed Python 3 from the Microsoft store, and now checking versions I get this: Python version 3.13.1, and pip version 24.3.1. But when I put "python3 API_active_runway.py -a EHAM" into the comma...

Find the active runway?

In our new world of limitless access to data, someone should create an app or a widget that would let you enter the runway of your choice (KORD, VTCC, PHNL, VHHH, etc.) and then instantly give you the real-world runway that is currently in use. I'm flying with RealTraffic every time now, and so I wa...

Re: Feature request: bubble?

Okay, I see. Hitting Save with "Show all" lets it now load with "Show all" engaged.

Thanks!

Re: Feature request: bubble?

Beta 10.0.259 --- The 3000' bubble is great, thanks!! But it seems to be selected by default whenever I start RealTraffic. (Maybe if someone selects it just once, there's a perpetual entry in a config file that always re-selects that mode every time RealTraffic is started?) I would recommend that Re...

Re: Issue with METARs

I will give that a try. In any event, it also works to either to do what I described in my original post, or else click "to planet" on the PSX instructor page, then cycle the "Set zones by..." checkbox. RealTraffic then unchecks the box and the altimeter settings in RT and PSX so...

Re: Issue with METARs

Hi Balt, I don't know if you've had a chance to look into this, but I wanted to mention that the issue is really only problematic when PSX and RealTraffic connect for the first time. Once they are connected, the "smooth transit" feature is working well--the gradual changes keep the altimet...
