Additional Features
Windsock Indications
In the real world, each runway end has its own wind detector to provide accurate wind information for that specific runway. However, on VATSIM we are limited to a singular wind reading from the METAR. INTAS takes the wind data from the VATSIM METAR and applies basic logic to calculate a fairly accurate runway-specific wind direction and speed for each runway end. The windsock icon is positioned based on the real world location of that airport’s windsocks, and will rotate and animate based on the calculated wind direction.
Windsock Warnings
As part of the wind calculations, INTAS displays orange warnings on the windsock direction and knots reading when either of the following conditions are met:- Crosswind greater than 20 knots
- Tailwind greater than 5 knots
Lead-on Light Animations
Lead-on light animations are a purely visual effect that showcase what the lead-on lights look like for pilots in the simulator. The real world INTAS system includes this feature as part of its suite.Lead-on light animations are purely visual and have no operational effect for controllers.
