LGKO has tags in Gateway "Has Taxi Route" and "Has Ground Routes" when in fact it only features Ground Vehicle routes.

Airport Metadata Issue

The apt.dat file does not include a taxi network that can be used by programs using AI aircraft, like World Traffic, etc.
This would require entries with the 1202 code, in addition to the 1201 entries.
Not a big issue and definitely not a bug, as the "Issue type" says, but I thought it was worth reporting, since in the description it says that there is a "taxi route".

    You are right - the airport contains routes for the ground trucks - but not for the aircraft!

    I am not sure why the Gateway can not distinguish between the two - I will refile this as a bug against the Scenery Gateway.

    This is not a Gateway bug. Tags are set by authors and moderators. Contact the moderator to fix the tags for this airport. @Julian ?

    Wait .. this IS a bug .. in WED !

    If a WED scenery has a ground route WED ALWAYS passes the ‘Taxi-Route’ parameter to the Gateway (as well as the ‘Ground Route’ parameter). If you search the Gateway d/b you will find that ‘Taxi-Route’ is ALWAYS set whenever ‘Ground Route’ is set. Michael is aware of this. It may already have been fixed in WED 2.4.
