Active Runway Updater for AIFlow/AIGround
Welcome to the Active Runway Updater, a tool designed to streamline the management of operational runways for AI Traffic within AIFlow and AIGround configurations. This application simplifies the process of updating the aiflow.ini and aiground.ini files by providing an intuitive user interface and automating the update process. The application updates 'AIForceLandingRunway=' entries on the AIFlow.ini file and 'AIForceTaxiOutRunway=' entries in the AIGround.ini files.
User Interface: The application provides a simple user interface. Users can input the ICAO airport code and operational runways through text fields and submit the changes.
File Modification: Upon submission of the user's input, the application ensures the correct formatting and updates the respective configuration files (aiflow.ini and aiground.ini) with the provided ICAO code and operational runways. It intelligently handles existing instances, prevents duplicates, and groups the configurations together within the files.
Feedback: After successfully updating the configuration files, the application provides feedback through a message box confirming the completion of the update process.
Overall, this application simplifies the process of editing the aiflow.ini and aiground.ini files by providing a user-friendly interface and automating the update process.
Yes you can open the files yourself and edit them yourself but who wants to do that?

Installation and usage -
**Prerequisite - must be used in conjunction with AIFlow and/or AIGround by ClipperOS.
Simply unzip the folder anywhere you like. Keep the ActiveRunwayUpdater.exe in that folder. Once you have added your AIFlow.ini and/or AIGround.ini file path and press the submit button, the application will create a settings.ini in the ActiveRunwayUpdater's folder to save your setting.
Examples of how the file path must me entered:
U:\1- MSFS APPS\AIFlow2202_fJnlD - Copy\AIFlow.ini
U:\1- MSFS APPS\AIGround221_zjskL - Copy\AIGround.ini
It can be used for AIFlow and/or AIGround just select the checkbox for the edit you want.
Thats it...You then just input the Airport's ICAO and the active runway(s) and it will do the rest for you.
Important Recommendation:
It is highly recommended that users keep a copy of the original aiflow.ini and aiground.ini files before using this application. This precaution ensures that in case of any unforeseen issues or errors, the original configuration can be easily restored.
It is also very important for the user to understand how AIFlow and AIGround works and to have read the ReadMe.pdf files provided by ClipperOS for their wonderful apps.

Put in the ICAO code and active runways and pressed enter...
Then I checked if the line was edited in the AIFlow.ini and AIGround.ini, but nothing was added in those files.
What did I do wrong?
