• 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.

    Time to Retire

    Jon, as someone getting older myself and finding it harder to keep up with everything, I completely understand your decision. Your programming ability will be missed, but the appreciation for what you've done for the Flight Simming developers will not be.All the best to you and your family.

    MSFS20 Loading A Stock Airport For MSFS 2020

    Click List, then Taxi Designators to add or delete a designation. You may want to add one such as 0001, 0002, etc. This is so you can move taxi links you want for A to 0001 , those for B to 0002, etc. until you have no taxi links assigned to A, B etc., then you can move them as you'd like. All...

    MSFS20 Is it possible to add lights in ADE - tried creating a darker image with _lm suffix

    You did this with ADE or in MSFS dev mode? I'd like to light up my terminal building to have a little bit of light at the Gates, but haven't a clue how to do it.

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    That was the problem. It took many many hours of watching AI at KSAV to finally have arrivals on 28 and confirm that planes exit correctly after having removed the hold shorts from the runway crossings. Rwy 1-19 is the ILS runway and AI tends to prefer it. It took a clear day with high winds...

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    I've removed the four holdshorts from the runways themseleves where they cross in hopes that this fixes it. MSFS doesn't seem to want to cooperate since by only landing on 10 and 1 since last night. I think MSFS decides landings off of live weather no matter what weather you set in game...

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    It just seems the more I work with this airport, the more that breaks. Those were the original KSAV links from the stock airport. Now some of the others along the runways are causing problems too. Just watched a couple do the same on 1-19.

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    The aircraft do not exit onto the crossing runway but I have an issue with them stalling at a certain node when turning off to head up towards the Gates. I think this problem was present before altering the runways crossing. This is for aircraft landing on runway 28. They get past the runway...

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    The runway crossing fixed: As for the ATC question, my thinking was MSFS ATC uses the path name to read the taxiway names when giving direction. My thinking was adding a space to those names would add a slight pause when ATC uses them. On further reflection, I don't know if that's the case...

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    I was thinking that I may need they for planes to avoid each other but I do not believe there's enough traffic at KSAV to warrant that so I just may remove them. Edit: On second thought, I may leave them alone as planes that park along A1 use that path instead of going all the way over to A...

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    Thank you. I just wanted to make sure I didn't mess anything up with removing those links.

    MSFS20 Prevent crossing runway from being used as exit.

    (1) In KSAV runways 1-19 and 10-28 cross at the center. I often have landing aircraft that depart 1-19 onto 10-28 and then stop and contact ground. Is there an easy way to stop this and have aircraft only depart onto taxiways without causing problems? Would removing the selected paths in the...

    MSFS20 Save to Community File

    Yes, Addon Linker allows you to put your mods somewhere else and then it creates symbolic links to them inside you community folder. The main advantage is that you can place you addons where you want and you can easily select/deselect them (even make presets) to load with MSFS.

    MSFS20 Couple taxiway questions

    After much work, I've finished with KSAV. You can find it at https://flightsim.to/file/33278/ksav-savannah-hilton-head-international-airport when it's made available. I'm sure I missed something but not for lack of checking. For some reason FedEx doesn't always want to park in the correct...

    MSFS20 Jetway deleted by accident

    OK, gave up on trying to import it somehow and just added a Jetway. Filled out all the fields exactly as MSFS stock one except for Gate Number which is now 2. I have one issue now. Below is images of this Gate 2 Jetway properties and Gate 4 Jetway properties. Notice in Gate 4 Jetway properties...

    MSFS20 Jetway deleted by accident

    I have a heavily ADE modified airport (KSAV). Earlier today I changed the Gate Numbers to match real life and renumbered the parking before the gates to after the gates so that all the parking numbers are still in order, just the Gates now run 1-15. I then modified the parking codes for all...
