Hello - new UTL user here, with a question about UTL.
I use P3D4, and I'm seeing lots of UTL AI traffic at airports where I fly. Happy, happy. BUT, I'm seeing parked GA AI planes which first move
BACKWARDS from parking, before taxiing forward. It's a buzz-kill, since, as a licensed pilot/previous aircraft owner, I know that doesn't happen IRL. My question is, do I have
something incorrectly installed - is there a UTL setting available to
correct this behavior - or is it just "the nature of the
beast"?  |

UTL just injects the traffic into the sim, what the traffic does from there is all from the AI engine of FSX/P3d.

Something's not right. I never saw that happening with P3D native AI, prior to installing UTL.

Again, it's all part of the ai engine of the sim.

Well, the unanswered question remains - if native P3D AI airplanes didn't exhibit this nonsense, why does P3D cause UTL AI planes to do it? It really is unacceptable. Looks like resolution will be to uninstall UTL and chalk it up to experience.

That's up to you but it has got nothing to do with UTL. Every AI traffic package including freeware does this.
The only way to fix it is to create your own airport files with a specialized taxi through parking. And I thought having 6 aircraft all on short final was bad! GA aircraft backing up 10 feet before taxiing, "the horor!". Lol Edit: just home and checked the default AI and as I already knew but wanted to make sure. The Default AI GA aircraft ALL pushback from their parking spots just like they have always done since AI was first added to MSFS in FS2002.
