SIMULATOR: Flight Simulator 2002
REQUIREMENTS: TTools V1.2 by Lee Swordy (not included), Visual Basic 6 Runtimes (not included),
ActiveX Controls 'COMDLG32.OCX and 'MSCOMCTL.OCX'.
DESCRIPTION:
------------
AI Traffic Mover makes AI Traffic much more realistic. AITM includes several Tools that allows you
to shuffle, move and export AI Traffic. AITM Projects help you to compile several Flightplans in
just one step.
What it does:
It imports all airports and determines what region/country they belong to. Then it imports all your installed
aircrafts and determines what airline they belong to. Then it imports the existing AI traffic and for every
flight it determines the region/country, maximum leg distance and flight level. Depending on these values
a list of aircrafts is made. Then an aircraft is randomly choosen from this list of aircrafts. If you prefer
to have a specific Airline to execute more flights for a region or country then you can tell AITM to assign
xx Percent of the region/country traffic to this airline. This feature can be configured in the file 'Airlines.cfg'.
You can also assign several tail number templates for each region/country and AITM will generate a unique number
for each flight. The Mover allows you to move AI Traffic from one Airport to another (a must have for
Overlay Airport users). Another function is the export of flights. For example you can extract all flights
executed by an airline, etc.

History:
--------
Version 1.0 Build 74 (First Public Version):
- More than tail number template for regions and countries
- Airport Distance Tool is now alot easier to use
- Flight Type (IFR/VFR) and Aircraft search parameters added to Export
- Added printing for the Export
- Added context menus for easier selection to shuffler and mover tree view
- Added a simple one step undo buffer for the Shuffler and Mover
- Added recent Flightplans and Projects to the File menu
- Added HTML manual
Version 0.9 Beta Build 71:
- Improved the shuffle performance (should be three times faster than before :))
- Added Flightplan Projects
- Added a new Export function that allows to export the remaining flights after searching
- Additional sortings for the Mover (Airline, Aircraft Class)
- Fixed: Aircraft titles were incorrectly compared case sensitive during loading a Flighplan
- Fixed memory issues under Win95/98/Me
- Changed: Compiling will be now executed in the users temporary system folder
Version 0.6 Beta Build 61:
- AND/OR search in Export module now possible
- Cruisespeed in AITM 'Aircrafts.cfg' will be used now
- even more GUI enhancements
- Fixed a possible crash if an ICAO could not been found the airport list
Version 0.6 Beta Build 55:
- Fixed a major memory bug under Windows 95/98/ME
- Added an option that allows AITM to look in all visited airports for a suitable Airline
- Added Export of Flightplans
- Added caching for some data (e.g. FS2002 Scenery Data)
- Added a menu function that enables you to calculate the distance between to airports
- some GUI enhancements
Version 0.5 Beta Build 35:
- Fixed a devision by zero if the distance for flight leg was 0nm.
- Added Compiling/Decompiling with TTools
- Added performance properties for Aircraft Classes and Aircrafts (check 'Aircrafts.cfg' for details)
- Added progress dialog (makes shuffling a bit slower)
Version 0.5 Beta Build 31 (First Internal Beta Version)
Remarks:
--------
Any suggestion and ideas are welcome :). Just write to thomas_molitor@web.de.
The algorithm used to find matching aircrafts is some how very complex and so it takes a bit of
time to shuffle. The Airline configuration is far away from beeing perfect so I would like to see
people sending me some of their files. I had the coding you the configuration editing. :=)
As this is the first public version there might be some bugs and/or incombatible systems.
