This update to the public beta improves the readback in voice and text mode. The pilots will only readback the taxiways you mention as a controller. It is now possible to skip "taxi to" and start with "runway ?", "stand ?" or "holding point ?" (replace ? with the target).
The UI layout has been changed slightly to reduce the amount of buttons always visible at the top of the screen and the session settings have been separated from the other settings. In the builder the reference image is now easier to move and scale and can now also be rotated. A warning for building the airport to far from the center of the build area has been added.
The save system for views has been changed and unfortunately the old views are not transferred.
The plan for the next update is to focus on the new scoring system which should lead to a version that the default version of the game can use.
Thanks for playing!
