Ground vehicle "Species" on VRS

[Joolde]

Hi all,

As far as I know, Virtual Radar Server assigns a 'species' to every ICAO code. But which code do I need to set, in order to get the 'ground vehicle' species?? It doesn't work when I try GRND, and other things don't seem to work either. Is there any way I can edit that myself?

I hope someone can answer my question.

Why not ask on the VRS forum. Seems like a specialised request that the developer could answer.

What are you wanting to achieve?

To display these on the map with a special icon or a silhouette in the aircraft list?  Or something else?

No, the silhouettes and logos are no problem.

Yesterday, I got a ground vehicle from AMS Airport on my reciever, but unlike other aircraft (that show as 'landplane' or 'helicopter') this has no 'species' listed. And today I saw the same for a G280..

In this screenshot you can see what I mean:


But I'll post the question on the VRS forum as well. Thanks for that

Thanks for clarifying.

What database are you using?

He may need to space the columb apart more the correct title is FIXED-WING LANDPLANE

Just reread the question, you may find that they are not listed as there are so many different vehicles on airfields at any time. You will find a list of these on my site,

Erm, I use the basestation.sqb file from SBS-resources.

In the meantime I got a quite lengthy and useful answer on the VRS forum I think that's all the information I need. http://forum.virtualradarserver.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=536

So it would be possible with editing the StandingData.sqb , but it might be quite dangerous.

I dont know yet what to do. I would like to add it myself, but I'm afraid to do something wrong and mess up my database.. But I think I'm going to ask the VRS developer first.

Thanks all for your help
