I'd like to share something I found out. If you decompile bgl's with TTools, plans with fixed arrival times are damaged, you'll get many "departure before arrival" errors. If you change something, please start with "fresh" txt-files, most of the FP's here have fixed arrival time. BTW, it gets worse the more often you decompile the plans.

Hi Ralf,
what are "departure before arrival" errors???
Does TTools give me an error-message or do these errors only become visible in FS (vanishing aircraft etc.)?
Kind regards!
Michael

Hi,
It only becomes visible in FS. Typically, that entire plan is thrown out (all legs) - none of it is flown.
Note that the changes that TTools causes is usually only a few seconds (on my machine less than +/- 30 seconds), so you would need to do this many times before most plans will encounter this problem. However, I agree that you should never compile and decompile - always start with your saved txt files.
Hope this helps,

Hi Tom,
I have decompiled a few GA plans I did and times shifted up to one hour after first run. I think it depends on computed aircraft speed compare to real speed.
