Aircraft stuck for days at "loading baggage" stage

[llondru]

This has happened before some times, and just saving, quitting, and reloading, it has solved itself.

Now, I have done this a couple of times, but 3 aircrafts are stuck in 3 stands, leaving them unusuable. Cannot close the stands, or cancel the flights. Any ideas on how to “unstuck” them?

I took a look at the aircraft.json file and here are the 3 aircraft:

@llondru

“aircraftAction”:4

Ok, so I solved it, by deduction, I put aircraftAction as 5 instead of 4, so they went into taxiing finally and end of the problem

Leaving this if anyone finds the same problem

Did you try dismissing the aircraft - the white plane with a red cross through it on a green circle button on the stand pop-up. This is the equivalent of changing the .json to ‘5’…

[llondru]

Oh! Never knew that!! Will do if it happens again!

[Olof]

If it happens again, please bug report it without altering the save files… - indeed a good quick fix but not so good if we want to prevent this from happening in the future!

[llondru]

I did send a report bug before doing anything

I think I spotted it in the backlog!
