• 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.

Multiple taxi edge lines

Hey all,

I haven't seen this problem before and I am wondering if anyone else has. It seems that the sim is drawing four taxi edge lines opposed to just two..

Here's what it looks like at night, I get the pretty blue lights...

And here's a pic of the AFCAD..

I've read on another the post that the larger blue lights is a result from a turn being to tight, but I think there is ample space around the troubled link. If I change the edge lines to draw dashed, then all four become dashed. Also, notice how the extra lines are only drawn on the concrete part, and not the asphalt from the runway. Any suggestions?

is this for FSX?
I think there is an old thread about this problem
this is what I do for FSX, cant comment on FS9.............
delete the taxi path and draw it again, and the bright blue edge light will revert back to normal as well,
if its not successful the first time delete it again this time draw it from the opposite direction,
I've chased this problem several times down the length of a long taxiway,
It maybe a draw problem in FSX as i have seen this at many default airports.
 
Thanks, forgot to say its FSX Acceleration, Win 7 64-bit. I did try to delete and replace, but only did it once, tried to reverse it, changed it to PATH instead of TAXI, moved the nearest neighboring node out a bit (the one on the left of the runyway) but that didn't fix it either. I'm wondering if it has to due with the different widths at the joining node on the runway. I'll keep trying, since I've been putting this on hold. :cool:
 
nothing to do with the widths,
try deleting the whole taxiway from the runway and redrawing it, even delete the taxiways adjoining it
it is possible to correct it :)
