Kevin Kan Posted May 7, 2009 at 02:31 AM Posted May 7, 2009 at 02:31 AM I had a plane go into KPVD today that filed DITCH V312 DRIFT J121 HTO for some reason after HTO ES automatically selected the JORDN2 STAR for me. In the ESE file I have STAR:KPVD::JORDN2:HTO JORDN MINNK I thought in cases like this I would need the name JORDN2 to even trigger it. ---------------------------------------------------------------- On a totally separate issue. Once in a while the full routing will not show, for example, a pilot files "KPHL FJC KBGM." When I click to show the route display it only goes as far as FJC and the pilot hasn't gone past it yet. Once he goes past it, it still points to FJC instead of KBGM. KBGM is in my sectorfile. Like my GOAT? Too bad, it's mine.

Stephan Boerner 945550 Posted May 7, 2009 at 05:46 AM Posted May 7, 2009 at 05:46 AM ES always suggests the first suitable STAR, that matches the last waypoint. If the pilot files "KBGM.", the problem is the ".".

Kevin Kan Posted May 7, 2009 at 03:31 PM Author Posted May 7, 2009 at 03:31 PM I put the "." to end the sentence So is there a way to not select a STAR then? To tell ES to completely disregard it.

Kevin Kan Posted May 7, 2009 at 11:06 PM Author Posted May 7, 2009 at 11:06 PM i have another of the same issue the pilot files "KACY CYN NEL COL KFRG" and the blue line only goes to COL and stops Like my GOAT?

Stephan Boerner 945550 Posted May 8, 2009 at 04:27 AM Posted May 8, 2009 at 04:27 AM Well, you could always define an empty "dummy-star" before the real STARs that would be selected first, but the STAR routing is also used for the predictions and calculation, so that would affect the calculations of entry and exit times. Even if the STAR is preselected and displayed/used for calculation, it is not entered into the flightplan until you manually select it. Where can I find the .sct/.ese?

Gergely Csernak Posted May 8, 2009 at 07:59 PM Posted May 8, 2009 at 07:59 PM Kevin, ES will automatically select the first matching STAR as Stephan told. The only way to avoid this is not to put the final waypoint as the first of the STAR. Then there will bot be any automatic match. But if you select it manually, the route will be correct. About the missing last segment: There was a bug in the public release that airports were searched in the ICAO_Airports.txt file but not in the SCT. KBGM is surely not in side the file you find in the installer. To quickly fix it add the missing airports to the file. The bug is already fixed, so in the next public release it will be OK. Gergely.

Kevin Kan Posted May 9, 2009 at 05:05 AM Author Posted May 9, 2009 at 05:05 AM ok thanks guys. The ESE file is on my computer only so far, it's not on any public website, since I'm still tweaking it. Only was is for me to email it to you if you like it. But thats a good idea about the dummy stars. Like my GOAT? Too bad, it's mine.
