Älä nyt loukkaannu, mutta mikä homma ilmotella erikseen päivityksistä kun ohjelma tekee saman kun sen avaa...?

Itse en näitä ohjelmia kovinkaan tiuhaan erikseen käynnistele joten ainakin minusta on ihan hyvä yleisesti tietää että johonkin ohjelmaan on saatavilla päivityksiä. Tietysti jos ei välitä päivityksistä niin sitten se on kai yks hailee.

@everyone
**FSLTL Traffic Injector Stable 1.6.4** available in FBW installer

**New Features**
- At injector startup, if the injector cannot find any valid model/liveries to use, the injector will report that to the screen and exit.  This should help people with model/livery installation issues but aren't aware of it because the injector appears to run normally.
  - The injector will also now report the number of model/liveries it found to use on startup
- At injector startup, if the injector finds multiple versions of the sim installed (or partially installed), the injector will report that to the screen and exit.  This should help people in scenarios where they have switched from one version to another (Steam to Store or vice versa) and the injector can't determine the correct Community folder to use.  If this occurs, completely remove the unwanted MSFS installation and rerun the injector.

**Bug Fixes**
- SID/STAR setting selection should now save correctly

**Match Rules**
- Modified fallback match rules to look for reg-match first, then a random selection of liveries with no reg, then a random selection of all liveries (reg & no reg)
- Added a new match rule that will attempt to find a 'generic' AIG GA match (GA4, GA3, GA2) before looking for a model fallback
- Corrections and tweaking of model fallback for certain models (A320 series, E75L/S, etc)

**Improvements**
- Injector will now pay attention to the runways the sim is using at an airport and use those runways when creating a flightplan
- Added better handling of aircraft turnaround scenarios, such as when an in-sim aircraft is assigned a new flight number or an in-sim aircraft receives a new route but the flight number stays the same
- If the injector receives updated origin/destination data from FR24 on an enroute aircraft, the injector will now remove that aircraft and reinject it using the updated origin/destination
- We have noticed instances where, during the injection of an aircraft, the sim will assign the objectId of an existing aircraft, not assign a new objectId as it should.  This then causes an existing in-sim aircraft to act like a different aircraft.  In this scenario, the injector will now remove the aircraft with the duplicate objectId and reinject that aircraft.
- Change in METAR provider as previous provider was no longer reliable

**Miscellaneous**
- Added KFCI, MMTL & VEAY to the internal database of airports
- Corrected RPEL airport to the correct ICAO code of RPEN

**FSLTL Traffic Injector Stable 1.6.5** available in FBW installer

**New Features**
- New Approach Altitude Enforcement option:  If this option is enabled, when an AI IFR aircraft calls for approach, if the aircraft altitude is over 6000ft AGL, the injector will drop the aircraft down to 6000ft AGL.  This can help with AI aircraft attempting an approach with way too much altitude, often leading to a go-around.
   - NOTE:  Enabling this option much be done manually in the 'fsltl-trafficinjector-config.json' config file.  This option is not available for modification in the injector console window at this time.
      - To enable this feature, add the following line to the config file mentioned above:   "forceappalt": "Yes"
    - Can't find the "forceappalt" setting in the config file?  Run the injector once and it will add the setting to the config file for you.  Just add your own "Yes".

**Match Rules**
- Tweaked the existing match rule that attempts to find a 'generic' AIG GA match by including the 'BJO' generic callsign used by AIG on some GA liveries (Thanks to @Liam & <@744612564465483796>)
- Modification to the livery search logic to allow use of some liveries with a missing icao_aircraft attribute in the aircraft.cfg file for that livery

**Improvements**
- Injector will now be more proactive in applying route change info for aircraft in the internal database but too far away to be injected.  Previously, FR24 data for a far-away aircraft could change and the injector only applied this change after initial injection with the old data when the aircraft was within the user-defined injection radius.

**Miscellaneous**
- For users that receive the error on injector start regarding multiple sim installs found, the error message will now list both locations the UserCfg.opt file was found (this is also covered in the FAQ)

Injectori päivitetty myös

@everyone

**FSLTL Traffic Injector 1.6.6** available in FBW installer

**Improvements**
- Add additional matching rules to better handle airlines that operate passenger and cargo versions of the same aircraft type
- Updated model fallback data to take advantage of Base Models update 1.4
- Updated static aircraft data

**Fixes**
- Fix to check for aircraft movement in FR24 before starting preflight
- Fix to IFR counts: IFR ground count was not incremented in certain scenarios

**Miscellaneous**
- Add SBCO airport to internal database

(there is NO difference in this release between Stable and Experimental; same injector)

@everyone

**FSLTL Traffic Injector 1.6.7** available in FBW installer

**New Features**
- Added detection code for MSFS 2024:  When the injector starts, if it detects MSFS 2024 is running, it will connect to MSFS 2024.  Otherwise, the injector will assume MSFS 2020 use and will proceed accordingly.  Therefore, if you want to use the FSLTL injector with MSFS 2024, make sure you start the sim **before** you start the injector.

Note: We cannot yet support the use of FSLTL injector with MSFS 2024 as we don't yet have access to the product.  Use at your own risk.

**Feature Changes**
- Removed support for FSHud:  The FSLTL injector can no longer be used as a conduit for FR24 data to be provided to for-cost products.  Therefore, we've had to remove support for FSHud in the FSLTL injector.

**Improvements**
- Further changes to matching rules handling airlines that operate passenger and cargo versions of the same aircraft type

**FSLTL and MSFS 2024 release **

As MSFS 2024 nears its release, the FSLTL team want to make sure you all are aware of where we stand and how we plan to support FSLTL with MSFS 2024.

TLDR: It's probably going to be messy.

Because FSLTL is not listed in the MSFS marketplace (we don't make any money for Microsoft/Asobo), the FSLTL team does not have access to MSFS 2024 before release.  Therefore, until it releases, we really won't know what will work, if anything, when it comes to FSLTL and MSFS 2024.

However, we have been in contact with a few people outside FSLTL that have had access, and the feedback so far isn't great.  The sim attempting to place all aircraft in one parking spot, AI control issues, sound issues, etc.  Unless some fixes/changes are added before release, MSFS 2024 AI could possibly be in a worse state than even MSFS2020.  We just don't know.

**With all of that in mind, when MSFS 2024 releases, we won't be able to offer any support for FSLTL with MSFS2024.**  Injector v1.6.7 does include MSFS 2024 support in that it will detect if MSFS 2024 is running and will connect to it.  But in terms of injection and how the AI aircraft behave in the sim, we won't be able to offer any support.  Over time, as we learn more, this stance will change.  But changes to the injector either to fix bugs when using MSFS 2024 or attempting to add workarounds to MSFS 2024 AI issues may be slow to release.  We may find that changes to models will be required too, we just don't know.

Also, please remember that if you choose to use FSLTL Base Models with the built-in live AI in MSFS 2024, we can't offer support there either (same as MSFS 2020).  In that scenario, Base Models is just a resource for the sim to use, and FSLTL has zero control over how the sim matches liveries, etc.

As things change, Asobo releases updates, and we learn more, we'll update you on new developments on our end to try and improve FSLTL with MSFS 2024.  We appreciate your patience and understanding.

Onko kellään kokemusta FSLTL-traffic lisurin siirrosta MSFS 2024-simulaattoriin?Tänään ilmestyi YouTube-video tästä.Pitää kokeilla,huono puoli tässä vaan sikäli,että se pitää tämän ohjeen mukaan ensin poistaa MSFS 2020 simusta ja sen jälkeen asetuksista pitää syöttää uusi Community-kansion sijainti..Itse simussa pitää myös tehdä pari muutosta asetuksiin.Voisihan tätä kokeilla ja katsoa miten se vaikuttaa simun sujuvuuteen.

Jos ei toimi kunnolla,niin siirtää sen takaisin aikasempaan simuun.

[Jyri Leijala 30]

Tein itse vain uudelleen asennuksen FSLTL:lle ja kohdistin kansiot 24 kansioon. Toimii ihan ok:sti mutta simussa itsessään on ongelmia vielä.

[Markku Aaltonen 641]

Mulla ei jostain syystä alkanut FSLTL-trafffic toimimaan tässä uusimmassa simussa.Siirsin sen takaisin MSFS 2020-simuun.Siellä se toimii ilman ongelmia.

Ei kuulemma ole vielä yhteensopiva. Eli omalla vastuulla🙂

[Markku Aaltonen 641]

Joo,oli kyllä tiedossa.Mutta eihän sitä usko ennen kuin kokeilee.

Toinen mikä mulla ei toimi,on Fenixin bussi,vaikka pitäisi.

Ei se Fenix taida vielä olla yhteensopiva 2024-simun kanssa - ei ainakaan täydellisesti:
