• 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.

A couple of things. First, not related to the jetway problem, the taxiway signs are incorrectly placed. Do you have the latest BGL2XML?

The Jetways look fine to me. When you are compiling the bgl file, are you setting a Delete All Jetways on?

no i dont have that setting on. when i first originally decompiled kphx i had the most recent version of the sde program and that i guess was an error in that version. and i just downloaded a newer version today and it gets rid of that error. but i really dont feel like redoing all of the working that i have done on my current phx again. maybe here in the near future but not now.

so then why do i get that error with the jetways? i have the most recent version of the planner.

So when you compile the airport you do not have the Delete All Jetways option ticked? If that is the case, then that is why you are getting the extra jetways. Make sure it is ticked and compile the airport again. That should get rid of them.

If you already had that option selected then we'll have to look elsewhere.

oooo. i thought if you had that option ticked it would delete all the jetways for the entire airport.

also can u in the next version fix the sensitivity of when you click on a gate. i have to undo a lot of lat/lon changes when i just click on it to add a code

Yeah, the delete options delete the default objects from within FSX. Your bgl file adds your modified objects to FSX. So if you don't use the delete tags you get a merging of existing FSX default objects and your new ones. The exclusion rectangles are similar, but deal with different objects.

We'll also look at moving sensitivity, maybe not in the next release though.
