Title: Second Runway Not Used (Needs to be Used)
Post by: stmaker on August 27, 2010, 09:54:14 am
(I have started a new save.)

So, I have a town named Abline. It has an airport that travels to two towns in five planes.

Well, I observed that all the planes used the first runway and not the second runway.

Here is a picture that shows you that planes are using the first runway for take-off and landing:

Any help?

Second runway can NOT be used, because airplane routing behaviour doesn't allow it.

Convois always look for the shortest route. If you want to overrule this, you must set a waypoint in a convoi's schedule (or the line's schedule). It is the same with all convois: trucks, busses, trains, trams, airplanes, ships, etc.

Or use one way signals on the tarmac to select one runaway to land and one to take off

I had found a solution before you reply. :P

Yes, that is what I do.
