Baggage stuck

[Chris_u667gf]

Hi All

Have been loving the game for the last few days, have not touched this for years and forgot it! However after building a small / medium sized airport I am hitting a problem in that baggage trucks are not collecting the luggage from the baggage bays to load the aircraft.

The baggage is being taken the opposite way from the aircraft to the baggage bay meaning the roads etc must be connected and the baggage bays always fully staffed.

I have plenty of baggage loaders and baggage trucks, the stands are connected to the baggage bays and the check in desks are connected. Baggage is turned on under the ops menu.

Is there any kind of known bug here? Very frustrating as it bankrupted a quite good airport while I was trying to figure it out.

Also quite annoying you have to wait for a stand to be free to connect a baggage bay, seems to take forever. Any quick ways around this?

Thanks in advance

Chris

Hi

Screenshots of the layout would help. Or you drop the savegame to the Workshop and post the link here. Then I can take a look at it during the weekend.

Normally ramp agents are missing at the baggage bays or the stands but you say this isn't the case.

Thanks for looking at this:

Not 100% yet but closing the airport, clearing all the stands and then reopening may have fixed it...

You seem to be have a shortage of medium belt loader trucks. Could that be causing the issue? In my opinion you need a belt loader truck for every plane that you are servicing

I park dedicated utilities on the stands of each aircraft to avoid the rigamarole mess that occurs with getting services to the aircraft.
My other tweak is having parking spots close to the area the vehicles needs to serve, so driving time is reduced, this has helped especially with fuel trucks for heavies.

Now if we could state that trucks with no orders and less than 55% fuel went to refuel their tanker it would be golden.
Getting a string of half empty tankers to refill a heavy aircraft every now and then is annoying.
