• 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.

Exclusion Rectangle not always works

I have something strange using Exclusion Rectangles.
I am trying to get rid of antennas spread all over the place by We Love VFR package.
So i place a exclusion rectangle.
But it does not seem to work all the time. When i re-open the scenery, the ugly antennas are back.
I checked Content.xml several times to make sure my scenery is at the bottom of the list. Noway.
I checked object.xml file and it includes the proper exclusion rectangle.

<ExclusionRectangle latitudeMinimum="-30.76444221645471" latitudeMaximum="-30.69927549758363" longitudeMinimum="21.40072954138918" longitudeMaximum="21.46892604402475" excludeAllObjects="TRUE"/>

Whats wrong ?
 
You should have asked the source of your issue, me 😁. I I'm always happy to help people wanting to get rid of my glorified autogen to make their add-ons compatible with We Love VFR.

Exclude all should work just fine. I see 2 possible issues.
1. Your add-on is loaded before We Love Vfr. Check order of your add-ons in content.XML file
2. Your exclusion rectangles work just fine but you don't see effects because you're in the scenery editor. Try to compile it and run normally.

Ps:. If you provide me details of the objects that need correction I'll be glad to fix them, so maybe you don't have to deal with it.
 
As per toprob comment, i have also find that excludeAll doesn't Always work

Use excludeLibraryObjects instead, i guarantee It works (at least to exclude scenery objects, )

Just follow puffin advice

Make your scenery
Compile
Slap your package in community
Reload the Sim

A new installed package always goes at the end of the content.xml, so Is loaded on top of other stuff

I've just realized that you are most likely the Droide responsible for those awesome telescope add-ons. If you need any further assistance contact me on discord at PuffinFlight#6007 or here via DM so I can help you more directly.
I was made aware that my add-on conflicts with yours and was planning to contact you to try to make them compatible.
