Hello there,
I've encountered a problem with FSXKML, which I am unable to solve. I am trying to change the coastline of an island, simple as that. I created a .kml file with one large polygon with the tag 'Exclude_Hydro_Polygons_Generic_Ocean_Perennial' and a second one, the new coastline, with the tag 'Hydro_Polygons_Generic_Ocean_Perennial'. After importing them to Google Earth 5.1 (the old version) the shapes are alright and everything seems to be in order. However, after compiling the water is excluded but the new coastline cuts through the terrain which results in a huge water filled hole. I've tried reversing the vertices, checked for 0 coordinates. The weird thing is, that sometimes it works ok, though I have no idea whats wrong.
Please see the images attached.
Any help and ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
