• 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 would you make an object "landable"?

Hi all again,

Im creating an object in FS, that I want a helicopter to be able to land on, without falling through! - How may I achieve this? :teacher:

Thank you,

Daryl :rotfl:
 
The easiest way is to use the Fs2004 gamepack and then use the attachscript that comes with it. One of the options you can specify there is platform and when you apply that on a polygon it will become just what the name says, a platform :D. After that you can land on it. So besides the visual part, you need to add an extra polygon and run the script on that.
 
It is in the gamepack folder under GMAX. The document that comes with the gamepack details the scripts.
 
Can these platform polygons be made to be used at an angle, or are they only available as flat and parallel to the ground surface? Let's say we want to use them as a ramp to go from land to water using an amphibious aircraft.

Take care,
Big John
 
Yes, they also work perfectly at an angle, so this allows us to make sloped hard surfaces at last.
