Alec Walker 916618 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Jake, Quick question. It is my understanding that VatSys uses Navigraph data, however does this mean we don't have to define Fixes, SIDs etc in Airspace.xml or do they still have to be defined? I'm working on a sector at the moment and have defined SIDs using RegEx formats but am getting a "SID not found error". Cheers!

Jake Saw Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Yes, you can rely solely on the Navigraph data if you choose. For <SystemRunways> you cannot mix and match the two though, if you define some SIDs and STARs (<SIDSTARs>) for a particular Airport in Airspace.xml, vatSys will ignore the Navigraph SIDs and STARs (for that airport) and only search the ones you defined instead.

Alec Walker 916618 Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 Question on the same vein, just logged in for a quick test and with no SIDs/STARs defined, I get no option to allocate a SID/STAR on the Flightstrip window. Do they have to be defined somewhere (outside of the Airspace.xml perhaps) for this to happen? VATSCA Iceland Training Assistant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Saw Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Assign a runway first. The SystemRunways you define are how vatsys knows which SIDS and STARs to load and make available Jake Developer - vatSys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec Walker 916618 Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 Thanks, I had assigned a runway but got no SIDs/STARs. There again, I didn't have any defined in there as I was expecting Navigraph to be able to supply that...?

Jake Saw Posted March 6, 2021 Share Posted March 6, 2021 <SystemRunways> defines runways you can choose from the popup menu in vatSys, and maps those runways to the SIDs and STARs that have defined either in Navigraph or elsewhere in Airspace.xml. That's why you can use the Regex pattern matching for the names. When you select a runway in vatSys, it chooses the most appropriate SID or STAR that you've mapped to that runway. You can see how this works in the Australia profile, where there are "fake" runways, such as 23V - that maps a Victor (visual terminating) STAR to the selection of that runway.

Jake Saw Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Hi Alec I won’t be home for a few days, so can’t look at it closely. You can check your regex matches the Navigraph names online, I use https://regex101.com Jake Developer - vatSys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alec Walker 916618 Posted March 7, 2021 Author Share Posted March 7, 2021 Hi Jake, No worries mate. Have checked on that site and they are all showing correctly, so maybe a parsing issue with VatSys? Let me know when you're able. VATSCA Iceland Training Assistant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
