• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Litle problem with SDE

Today I search SAAP (Parana) Airport with SDE. I find it and save to disk as .XML

When I tray to compile with BGLComp get an error.

The problem is in :

<Transition
transitionType="FULL"
fixType="TERMINAL_NDB"
fixRegion=""
fixIdent="P"
altitude="640.08M">
<TransitionLegs>
<Leg
type="IF"
fixType="TERMINAL_NDB"
fixRegion=""
fixIdent="P"
/>
<Leg
type="FC"
fixType="TERMINAL_NDB"
fixRegion=""
fixIdent="P"
flyOver="TRUE"
recommendedType="VOR"
recommendedRegion="SA"
recommendedIdent="PAR"
theta="17.3"
rho="3519.7M"
magneticCourse="29"
distance="13893.55M"
altitudeDescriptor="+"
altitude1="640.08M"
/>
<Leg
type="CF"
fixType="TERMINAL_WAYPOINT"
fixRegion=""
fixIdent="CN19"
flyOver="FALSE"
turnDirection="L"
recommendedType="VOR"
recommendedRegion="SA"
recommendedIdent="PAR"
theta="14.8"
rho="17598.5M"
magneticCourse="194"
distance="1852.47M"
altitudeDescriptor="+"
altitude1="640.08M" <=== HERE!!!
/> <=== or Here
</TransitionLegs>
</Transition>

For me that is OK, but the compiler stop after this line.... :confused:

This occurs in

<Approach
type="NDB"
runway="19"

Best Regards

Hi Carlos

This is a problem that we see a lot. There seems to be a conflict between what the SDK says, what the official documents say and what the Compiler will accept in some approach types. There is no region or fix region found in the Bgl file so it is empty. However while the xml is valid against the schema, the compiler itself generates and error. Jim Vile can certainly explain this better that I can :)

At first I had SDE fill missing required region ids with something but that just hid the problem and could casue problems in the sim. The way to deal with this is to find the offending leg(s) and add a region or fix Region ID.

I need to work out some better way for SDE to handle this but so far I have not gotten to that
