• 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.

How to set up text doc's for BglComp

I am having problem's creating scenery objects with the text documents and BglComp. How do I set them up? Like this is an example of a helipad.

<Helipad
lat="N47 26.00"
lon="W122 18.38"
alt="432.7F"
surface="BRICK"
heading="0"
length="200F"
width="100F"
type="CIRCLE"
closed="FALSE"
transparent="FALSE"/>


Where do I put that?
 
Hi.

You need to put it into a XML file. This is just an ASCII file, so you can create it with notepad for example. Before the actual command you posted you need a few other commands. You can use this as a template:

Code:
<FSData version="9.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="bglcomp.xsd">

<!-- Your actual code -->
	
</FSData>

In the middle you would need your code, for example the Helipad command. But the BGLComp SDK says that the Helipad command needs to be part of an Airport command as well, so you would have to add that as well. Check the documentation of the BGLComp SDK for more details.
