Thanks for the tips. I've tried to alter a UAL traffic file, but still get no a/c in sight, either above or below ground (checked by using ufo). I note that there are several aircraft under ai/models, but the only property under each of those is radar, which has no value shown... I tried to change my new SQ.xml and have had some segfaults now, after altering it a couple of times. Is there a more verbose log I can use to see where the segfaults come from? I've looked at my xml and it seems fine... Do I need to enable traffic when compiling the source?
