• 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.

MSFS Missing start location in ADE project

I have just finished editing EGAJ Chilbolton including both runway starts and on the final stage I clicked Tools/ Fault Finder and it told me that runways 05 and 23 had missing starts.

Clicking on runway 23 I got the message "A start location is missing for this runway or has the wrong number or type.

I clicked on Edit Object of the Runway Start on the project display and it displayed the ADE Internal Properties list. This list does not mention a number or type and I have attached a screen shot.

Have I overlooked something?

As I recall there is a bug in ADE for checking runway starts. I am away from my dev computer but I seem to recall that Asobe changed the way Starts are handled.

Thanks for responding so quickly, is there any other way to check runway starts?

Will AI aircraft be affected if there is no runway start?

There is this way:

and you can check runway properties in DevMode.

Just had a thought, is the ADE bug just a reporting error and there is really no problem with the Runway Starts?
