I don`t know what`s happening all the traffic is a mess for example when to planes are in final aproach and the first one lands it takes to long to leave the runway and the other has to continue flying. Or I don`t know why in a runway in EGLL a plane is going to take off but it doesnt and the plane behind goes to the runway and goes INTO the other plane no crashing at all i mean like if the other airplane wasn`t there What i mean is that i don`t know why some airplanes go in the way of others with out crashing or respecting the space of the other plane.

Could some one help me??

The 1st problem is simply a shortcoming in the way FS handles AI traffic. An add-on named 'AISmooth' does a good job of sorting out traffic congestion. Available at Avsim and other sites.

2nd Issue. Check your hold short points. Run the Afcad 'fault finder' before saving the airport.

...from Afcad help:
Quote:

Hold-short nodes create visible hold-short bars on the taxiway, which you can see in AFCAD if you zoom in close. AFCAD automatically orients the marker so the dashed-line side faces the runway. If for some reason the program has not oriented it the way you want then you can flip the marker to the other direction using a checkbox on the Node Properties Window. ATC also uses these nodes as checkpoints for takeoff clearance. Note: if hold short nodes are too far from the runway it can cause AI to freeze at the runway, see Hold Short Node Limits.
