• 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.

For anyone that can answer this:

I was just wondering what would be the proper technics in building an airport in ADE?

For instance,... when it comes to landclass should the previous landclass be removed, that not part of the Airport?
also, Does the Landclass for say a large city or mid-size automatically lay where roads have been placed etc?

I hope this makes sense? :)

Jon has put together a wonderful manual that covers your questions. Plus others that you will come up with.

Thanks bob...

But I have everything that Jon has written or had a hand in... can you be specific where to look?
 
Of course. P 92 of the vs1.2 manual starts to deal with terrain elements. P 9 of the 1.37 release notes deals with up dates. You will exclude everything you don't want first. I have seen default roads show through a landclass I have put down. I did not exclude the default road and it was OK in that stuation. It may not work to have a country road in the middle of downtown, however. Best thing is to jump in and experiment and have fun. You can't hurt anything as long as you have a backup of any default files you alter. If you create a new airport and it becomes a total mess, deleat the bgl and FSX goes back to the way it was.

Ok...

that at least is a starting point... Thanks.

I suppose then that the Mid-size City etc doesn't follow the road vectors then?

Thanks again
