  • CHANGED TCAS handling to new TCAS override approach that was introduced with X-Plane 11.50 Beta 8.
    • TCAS functionality requires X-Plane 11.50b8 or later. On earlier version TCAS can no longer be activated.
    • Up to 63 TCAS blibs will show on Laminar's instruments.
    • You no longer need to configure AI Aircraft in X-Plane's settings just for LiveTraffic's purposes.
    • Other plugins' TCAS implementations as well as 3rd party plugins currently accessing the classic up to 19 multiplayer dataRefs will first need to adapt to the new approach to benefit from the up to 63 planes.
    • Attention developers, if using LiveTraffic's AI multiplayer data: The previous slotting mechanism is removed, that means that planes can potentially change AI slots with every flight loop cycle. They are sorted by distance. This is because the new TCAS target mechanism offers the sim/cockpit2/tcas/targets/modeS_id[64] dataRef array to keep track of an aircraft's identity.
  • TEMPORARILY DEACTIVATED LiveTraffic's own rendering of the map due to a bug in X-Plane 11.50b9, causing crashes when the location changes. Instead, X-Plane's rendering of the now up to 63 TCAS planes is activated so that you see at least some standard icons.
    Bug is filed with Laminar. Map will come back once that bug is fixed.
  • CHANGED #186 identification of ground vehicles, takes operator and call sign into consideration. Call sign matches configured in FlightModel.prf.
    FIXED identification of ground vehicles for the purpose of chosing a map icon if car ICAO type is configured different from standard ZZZC.
  • FIXED XPMP2 #9: Allowing models with same name from different CSL packages. Matching will pick randomly, also across packages.
    This removes many "Duplicate model" warnings from the log. It remains a warning if the same name is reused within one package.
  • FIXED #183 ghost planes: Some CSL models were not drawn due to a bug while reading xsb_aircraft.txt.
  • FIXED #185 garbage character read from Settings text fields.
  • FIXED #184: Aircraft on the ground, for which no updates are available any longer, were not properly removed but could just sit there forever.
  • REMOVED handling of ICAO/AIRLINE lines from CSL2XSB.py, which previously was meant to define default models per aircraft type and airline. With XPMP2's random pick mechanism this is no longer needed and would even reduce the match quality of the models previously chosen as defaults.
    Execute CSL2XSB.py again on your models to benefit from this change.
  • In Beta versions like this, Log Model Matching (Debug Settings) is forced to be activated.
