I occasionally have friends visit and stay in their camper. I have installed a 35 amp RV box by the back driveway. I also have a 4 wire 20 amp 220 outlet by my carport for an emergency generator which...

Wasn't really asking for advice on wiring, I can handle that. I asked how a 50 amp RV setup distributes their power use. I know they sometimes plug into 30 amp outlets at campgrounds, does half the camper not have power? I assume if you have more than one AC unit that you can only use one if you're plugged into 30 amp service.
For those worried about my generator use, the previous owner had it wired to back feed, I wanted outlets and put in full 4 wire service to a 4 wire outlet that I could plug a commercially available adapter into to get two 120v circuits for use outside. I used this approach rather than putting in a couple of duplex outlets because it is mounted in a stone veneer wall and didn't want to get into masonry work just to change the use and I could mount the 4 prong outlet in the accesting box. I figured in the future if I wanted to connect a generator I could add a transfer switch.
So unless you can answer what I asked, don't bother posting.
