# Flight Simulator Enhanced Traffic

This **standalone** Flight Simulator addon, injects more accurate live traffic into your game!

# Installation

- Download the latest release from https://flightsim.to or https://github.com/GewoonJaap/Flight-Simulator-Better-Traffic

- Unzip the file

- Configure `Config/ModelMatching.json` to your needs (You don't need to insert your liveries here! Only planes.)

- Open `Enhanced Live Traffic.exe`

- Press `Connect`, once your simulator is loaded and your plane is spawned in.

# Model Matching

This application supports custom model matching

- Go to: `Config/ModelMatching.json`

- Edit the file accordingly.

## Using AIG Liveries

If you have installed the Liveries from AIG via the “AIG Manager” in your Community folder, the Liveries should work fine. The Enhanced Live Traffic tool will look for the path: “C:\\Users\\Username\\AppData\\Local\\Packages\\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\\LocalCache\\Packages\\Community\\aig-aitraffic-oci-beta\\SimObjects\\Airplanes\\”

When your folder will not found because you installed it at another place or once AIG will rename the folder path, then you have to set it manually in: Config/Settings.json

Therefore you have to set the “AdditionalFolderPath:” to the correct AIG path on your computer.

Please note, that the path should look like this: F:\\Games\\Flight Simulator\\Community\\

Make sure you use double backslashes (\\)

## How to edit?

- How does model matching work? Lets say the `Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner` is detected, the modelmatcher will now search for an aircraft with the key: `Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner`, this will return `Boeing 787-10` (`"Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner": "Boeing 787-10"` as seen in the json file).

- The modelmatcher will now append the livery name, lets say "KLM", this results in: `Boeing 787-10 KLM`, if this livery is found, it will use this aircraft, if it isn't, it will fallback to: `Boeing 787-10 Default` (It appends default to the value gotten from the key),

- When getting `Boeing 787-10 Default` it will return `Boeing 787-10 Asobo` and use this aircraft.
