The 'PF3 Help' info for this says that if you select this option and you don't have a preferred gate selected for the airport in question and there are no free gates available, you will get the generic instruction 'taxi to terminal'.
But with this option checked I always get that generic instruction, even when there are plenty of gates free which are suitable for the aircraft I am flying. I have never once been sent to a specific gate. If I uncheck the option, I am almost always sent to some unsuitable remote GA parking spot, again, even though there are lots of suitable passenger gates empty - though that I suppose is FS9's doing and can't be changed?
Have I misunderstood something here, or not done something I should have? Does anyone redaing this get sent to a numbered passenger gate, with this option selected?
Thanks
