• 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.

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 Gates to match real life.

When I went to build I was getting an error from a duplicate jetway. Checking the Jetway List I noticed two number 7 jetways. I matched the offset with what was found under Gate 7 parking, kept that jetway and deleted the other Jetway under the Jetway list. I didn't realize at the time, but Jetway 2 was missing from the list. The second Jetway number 7 that I deleted was actually Jetway number 2 that didn't get the new Gate number when I changed all the Gate numbers. All the other Gates and Jetways changed fine. This is what resulted in the original build error of duplicate jetways.

How can I get the jetway that I deleted (MSFS original number 7) back from the stock MSFS airport and placed back into my project that I deleted?

I've created a test project from the stock msfs airport so I can look into what the stock contained. If I go into my test project/PackageSources/data folder I can open the xml and find the original jetway 7 section. I've copied this, opened my actual project/PackageSources/data folder and inserted it into the same place in my xml (renaming the jetway parking number from 7 to 2), but opening my project the jetway doesn't show up. Is there another way to do this?
 
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 that parent name is Library Object just like all the other Gates. But in this created Gate 2 Jetway that it's just three dots. How do I fix this?
