Enhanced Live Traffic
Enhanced Live Traffic is a standalone Flight Simulator add-on that injects accurate live traffic into your game!
Once you are spawned in the world, you can open the application, click connect and see all the live traffic.
Without this add-on, you might see a lack of live traffic, or the live traffic is delayed. This add-on solves this.
Please note that it might take up to 10 seconds after clicking "Connect" for the traffic to appear in-game.
Manually setting the Community folder
When you got the error that the Community folder could not be found, please manually set it in: Config/Settings.json
Please note, that the path should look like this: F:\\Games\\Flight Simulator\\Community\\
Make sure you use double backslashes (\\)
Model Matching
This application supports custom model matching.
- Go to: Config/ModelMatching.json
- Edit the file accordingly.
How to edit?
- How does model matching work? Let's say the "Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner" is detected, the modelmatcher will now search for an aircraft with the key: "Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner", this will return "Boeing 787-10" ("Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner": "Boeing 787-10" as seen in the JSON file).
- The modelmatcher will now append the livery name, let's say "KLM", this results in: "Boeing 787-10 KLM", if this livery is found, it will use this aircraft, if it isn't, it will fall back to: "Boeing 787-10 Default" (It appends "Default" to the value gotten from the key),
- When getting "Boeing 787-10 Default", it will return "Boeing 787-10 Asobo" and use this aircraft.
Using AIG Liveries
If you have installed the Liveries from AIG via the “AIG Manager” in your Community folder, the liveries should work fine.
The Enhanced Live Traffic tool will look for the path: “C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\aig-aitraffic-oci-beta\SimObjects\Airplanes\”
If the folder is not found, because you installed it at another place for example or once AIG will rename the folder path, then you have to set it manually in: Config/Settings.json Therefore you have to set the “AdditionalFolderPath:” to the correct AIG path on your computer.
Make sure you use double backslashes (\\)
This add-on is still in ALPHA, there are still bugs!
If you would like to help me out, feel free to open a pull request at: https://github.com/GewoonJaap/Flight-Simulator-Better-Traffic
If all aircraft have default liveries, check the logging files, so see if the application found any installed add-ons. Running as administrator might fix this issue if no addons are found.
Known bugs:
- Airplanes on the ground will teleport.
- When placing the application in a Admin Restricted folder (Program Files for example) the application might not work as expected. Please place it somewhere else or start the application as administrator.
- IVAO liveries might not work. Please send me a DM with the IVAO liveries, so that I might be able to fix it.
- Airplanes don't have nametags. This is not possible with the flight sim SDK. So I have to wait for Asobo to fix this..
Hopefully it's just a change that can be adapted for. They might consider this kind of thing abuse and have us blocked. We'll just have to wait for a fix if that's possible.

ADS-B goes nuts when the rocket launches and goes so high so fast but the mother ship just flies like a plane. Looks like they don’t appear on ADS-B until they are a few thousand feet above ground thanks to the low ADS-B receiver coverage near the Spaceport. N348MS is the mother ship and the rocket is N202VG. There’s also an N48VG which is an Extra 300-like airplane that seems to act like a safety flight and flies during the spaceflights. But double check if interested. The sparse launches make troubleshooting spread out over months.
I have the mother ship working now and flew with them on descent. They looked like Airbuses on ascent but fixed the matching on the mother ship in time to come down with it. Hard to find a plane that flies that high that slow. Kept stall/spinning out but ELT works great. Just need to sort the spaceship and will post all the settings.

Latest SU12 update
It seems to be working as before, at least in my case.
Although FSLivetraffic is far more sophisticated with ATC etc ,I still use Enhanced Live Traffic to ngive me that live feeling when taxiing.

Hi, thank you very much for your add-on.
Is it possibile to auto connect the application on launch and also set exclude to some categories without selecting every time? (maybe with some setting file?)
Thank you

Hi, I'm getting low flying airliners even though I have Airliners excluded. I also have gliders, ground traffic, and high traffic excluded. They all show as excluded in the status column as well. Seems to work well except for the low flying airliners and still some airliners on the ground. I checked by disconnecting the app and saw them dissappear. Then re start and they came back once the app loaded. Is there a solution I could try? Thank you so much for your work.

The only mod I've found that successfully gets me local GA traffic at KPAO and KSQL! Thank you! Fingers crossed for you to find a magic way to get ground traffic working properly.

I don't see any option to change the number of aircraft. Are you referring to the app or the sim options? I don't see either what should be the traffic settings in the sim.

In the file Settings.json you will find: "{"CommunityFolderPath":"C:\\Users\\Florian\\AppData\\Local\\Packages\\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\\LocalCache\\Packages\\Community\\","AdditionalFolderPath":"C:\\Users\\Florian\\AppData\\Local\\Packages\\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\\LocalCache\\Packages\\Community\\aig-aitraffic-oci-beta\\SimObjects\\Airplanes\\","MaximumAmountOfPlanes":60}"
The "60" is the number of planes that should be spawned!
