• 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.

Hi guys,

I dread I know the answer to it, but still wanted to give it a try:

Is there a way for scenery objects in FSXA to act like genuine solids with effects that come from the user aircraft?


Actual state: The exhaust fumes from my birds take the easy way out of my HAS, right through the exhaust vent's back wall and the tiny hill behind it.

Desired state: Particles from the aircraft's effect are constrained by solid walls of my shelter and being deflected to the actual outlets.


I have read something about exclusion boxes in a different context (yet not completely different, given that light particles remain some sort of effect particles). Yet I believe that suppressing undesired output is not exactly the same as redirecting it. And that my idea - as physically correct as it may seem - is not what the ESP engine was designed for at the end of the day. In fact, it makes me rather think of the promotional video of that new beast that is said to act more like a huge closed particle system... in some ways at least....

So there you go with the poll... shall I rather focus on my textures and C++ skills or stick to the topic?
