Changing colors on AC lists

[Giovanni Tarar 2]

Hi everyone!

 

In preparation for the CTP, I'm working to optimize my EuroScope in order to avoid confusion and major issues.

I'll be working as DEL/GND and as such, I'll need to keep an eye on the EOBT to authorize push and starts. Since it will be an endless departure list, I was wondering if there is a way to change the EOBT color based on the timings.

 

 

For example:

 

It's 1200z and there are three aircrafts with different EOBTs:

 

AC1 is at 1230z,

AC2 is at 1200z,

AC3 is at 1130z

 

What I'm aiming for is to have the early aircraft (AC1) to be displayed in green so that it blends with the rest of the tag and it doesn't grab attention; the on-time (AC2) to be displayed in yellow, so that it'll signal me it's time to call him for p/s; and the late one (AC3) to be displayed in red, in order to expedite his ground ops.

 

 

I know it's a quite complex request, but if anyone knows a way it will be much appreciated.

 

Many thanks in advance

I've tried doing it in the past with just vanilla euroscope and you can't do it really. There is a way but that would require a plugin to read off the slot data and then push it off to the controllers client. Meaning you would need a slot plugin.

I kinda guessed that...

Unfortunately my C++ skills are close to none, so I'll never be able to develop such a plugin.

 

At least I hope I've thrown an idea for a new plugin

 

Thanks for the help anyways!

Maybe if you ask around vACCs they might have something for you especially the departure airport vACCs.

Thought about it, but had some rumors from the CTP team, so let's see how it goes.
