• 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.

PLACEPOINTSALONGLINE how to CreateAGN

Hi Arno,
I used PLACEPOINTSALONGLINE for a long time and created the AGN out of the old now depreciated command CREATEAGNLIBOBJ.

With the new CREATEAGNLIBOBJECT command it however expects a polygon instead of a line.
So the lightpoles placed with PLACEPOINTSALONGLINE are not exported
Code: 
18:41   CreateAGNLibObject   Information   Creating autogen library objects with filter FTYPE="POLYGON" AND (OBJECT="LIGHT")
18:41   CreateAGNLibObject   Information   Created 0 autogen objects

How do I create the AGN now. In the manual and in all example codes I found the old command is still used.

Sorry, if this is a silly question but I have no idea how to solve it.

The answer is RTFM, sorry but in the manual there is an example in chapter 5.5.
For all who have the same problem, here is a small codesnippet that works for me now:

Code: 
PLACEPOINTSALONGLINE|FTYPE="LINE" and fclass="motorway"|SINGLE|149;150|10;10|0|String;OBJECT|LIGHT|HDG
PointToPolygon|OBJECT="LIGHT"|8;8|hdg|String;type|lightpoly
CREATEAGNLIBOBJECT|type="lightpoly"|{0017a263-464f-14fd-f77f-2996fed44864}
 
Glad that you found the answer already :)
