• 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.

Apron turns to grass when adding new taxiway

Just found this wonderful tool a couple of days ago and decided to alter EGBB airport and remove an old taxiway and insert the new taxiway C. Although the old taxiway went and C appeared the apron has turned mostly to grass - and I know I didn't take THAT long to alter the BGL.:D

I've attached before and after JPGs below

Any ideas whats gone wrong?

Just a guess here, but perhaps you set the delete aprons tag, but not the write aprons tag? (Both located under Compile -> Prepare Options). If so that would delete any existing aprons, but not replace them with the new ones, resulting in what you see in the two screen shots.

Russell,

You got it in one! The delete options were set but the write weren't. I changed the options and it worked a treat.

I never even thought of looking at the compile options, assuming, wrongly, that as had just done some changes that all would be well.

Now I can increase the apron area and add the new parking spots etc.

Any idea when the Guide will be out?

Thanks again

Rog
 
Glad it works now!

Not sure when the manual or other how-top-guides will be out. We are working on the last major bit of functionality right now, and are doing a big push to get that out. So we don't have any time for writing the manual or more how-to-guides. But once this last peice is done we'll start writing more of the how-to-guides.
