'''Animated jetways''' are dynamic jetway models that connect to your aircraft when you are pulled up at the gate. [[FlightGear]] touts the most advanced animated jetways in the flight simulator market, beating those of Microsoft Flight Simulator and X-plane in features- a testament to the flexibility of FlightGear. This article describes how to obtain and use the jetways and interface them with aircraft and scenery. You may also want to have a look at [[Ramp Marshall]]. | '''Animated jetways''' are dynamic jetway models that connect to your aircraft when you are pulled up at the gate.

= current(2015) state = | |||
Jetways defined in Airports/K/S/F/KSFO.jetways.xml using Models/Airport/Jetway/generic.xml do not work. | |||
Have a look at Nasal/jetways/ and see if you can fix it. | |||
Working Jetways: | |||
* jetway-movable.xml | |||
* jetway-movable-2.xml | |||
* jetway-movable-3.xml | |||
known limitations: | |||
* you click one and all start to move | |||
* they only work when placed in front of the aircraft, I can not use them when the terminal building is on the side of the aircraft. | |||
* movement is not visible via multiplayer | |||
Scenery Developers: just place them as OBJECT_SHARED. quick & easy. examples: EDDK, EDDH,... | |||
Aircraft Developers: add the following to your aircraft-set.xml, see the A380 as an example: | |||
<syntaxhighlight language="xml"> | |||
<aircraft> | |||
<jetway-pos> | |||
<x-tra>-2</x-tra> | |||
<y-rot>2</y-rot> | |||
<z-rot>18</z-rot> | |||
<hood-rot>0</hood-rot> | |||
</jetway-pos> | |||
<jetway2-pos> | |||
<x-tra>2.5</x-tra> | |||
<y-rot>2.5</y-rot> | |||
<z-rot>45</z-rot> | |||
<hood-rot>0</hood-rot> | |||
</jetway2-pos> | |||
<jetway3-pos> | |||
<x-tra>4</x-tra> | |||
<y-rot>5</y-rot> | |||
<z-rot>47</z-rot> | |||
<hood-rot>3</hood-rot> | |||
</jetway3-pos> | |||
</aircraft> | |||
