• 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.

MSFS24 Removing fuel truck?

I'd created an updated version of HI29 for MSFS 2020. Trying to update it for 2024, and annoyingly the default MSFS airport now includes a fuel truck and fuel station. This is an ag strip in the mountains of Hawaii, and most definitely should not have either.

Bringing in my 2020 source files into the 2024 SDK, I can't for the life of me figure out how to get rid of that truck and equipment on the ground.

Any pointers? The instructions I find for 2020 refer to a "services" section upon inspecting an airport object that's just not there in 2024.
 
Don't touch Services. It will mess up all the Services in the sim. You need to recreate the parking to get rid of the fuel parking and the fuel truck. I made a quick airport in ADE2020 to Fix it as you wanted, and then loaded that airport to MSFS 2024 devmode, and got rid of the vehicle parking and redesignated the nearby fuel-type parking as Dock GA, as well as the other 2 parking spots.

Historically, all of us here at FSDev know you know something involving FS that most do not know (yet ?).

But, seeing this, I am compelled to ask:

Do you know something about an "ADE2024" ...that the rest of us do not (yet) know ? :wizard:

The post also makes sense if the reference is to ADE2020. We shall see.
