Adam Roate 1388768 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Ross - I hope you read this one! Our ARTCC (ZAU) is in the process of a complete SCT2 file re-write. O'Hare was/is constantly "turned on" when the sector file loads. In our previous sector file, so the smaller airports (cl[Mod - Happy Thoughts] C/D) would be invisible unless needed, all of the airports except KORD were drawn as paths only (no regions polygons except for KORD), and could be turned on and off as a subsection in the [sTARS] diagrams. Now in the new file, I want to use [REGIONS] data for the smaller airports, but it seems I cannot create a nested [REGIONS] in the in subsections of the smaller airports. Therefore, all regions are turned on at all times. Any suggestions for a work-around? Adam Russell ZAU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Glottmann Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Regions can only be turned on or off, nothing in between. With that said, you could make multiple files for a tower/TRACON setup, and additionally split those up for vSTARS ASDE-X implementation. Personally, I would only have regions for airports with ASDE-X, then just an outline for everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Roate 1388768 Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) I completely agree, but now at least 4 of the airports in ZAU have ASDE-X in use. Exploring multiple sector files is a good thought though. Thank you! Edited October 31, 2017 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
