• 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.

Another Compiling Error

Ah, how do I explain this one!
I'm sitting here red faced right now after making myself look a bit of a fool.

You were right Russell, I completely overlooked the 'prepare options' boxes. Checked & deleted as you said and the tower has moved a respectable distance from the runway.

To check that it wasn't a fluke I added a tower and windsock at Swanton Morley airfield & it worked. First rule if you have a problem is to check the easy stuff first.

Many thanks for your help again - it's very much appreciated.

Glad it's working! :)

I looked at this stock airport and ADE and AFX handle it correctly but FSXP does not get the altitude right. This is from the stock airport.

Russell please look at this airport. It looks like is is below sea level and that could be the problem.

I'll check it out. It's possible that we are decompiling a negative altitude incorrectly, and thus ending up with an excessively high altitude. I'll check and let you know.
