• 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.

FS2004 "Ground poly object must be edited before compile"

Hello,

I am building a runway based on ground polygons above the AFCAD, however, some ground lines won't be compiled. ADE tells me "Ground poly object bound by X must be edited before it can be compiled in its current form/state".

So these lines also do not show up in FS after compiling :(

I cannot seem to find the precise problem.

What causes this error?

Best regards
 
As noted in the manual, whenever you make a change to a ground poly (other than simply moving the entire line or poly), it must be sent to the ADE_GP editor. If you don't do this when you make the change, you are reminded to do so before you can compile. Generally, all that's needed is for you to open the ADE editor for each noted GP object (double-click on the object in ADE) and click OK (to update ADE's records) in the GP editor.

As you've discovered, until you do so, the noted objects will not be rendered by FS>

It's even easier than that. The compile offers to open the editor for you. Just answer "Yes" and click on the editor's OK button. "Nine time out of ten", that's all that's necessary.
