<div>== Introduction ==<br />
<br />
This is the tutorial for [http://fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=FSX_KML FSX KML].<br />
<br />
FSX KML is a freeware scenery design tool for Microsoft Flight Simulator X (FSX).<br />
<br />
== Creating landclass tiles ==<br />
<br />
* Land class tiles may be created tagging a polygon with a land class tag.<br />
* FSX KML will process land class polygons in the order the appear in the KML thus allowing "layering" of land classes. <br />
<br />
<!--<br />
See this sample KML which does the following:-<br />
<br />
* Covers the entire Philippines islands with degraded tropical forest<br />
* Overlays some degraded tropical forest areas with tropical forest<br />
* Overlays some degraded tropical forest areas with paddy fields<br />
* Overlays some paddy field areas with urban areas<br />

== Creating a bush landing strip ==<br />
<br />
== Placing scenery objects ==<br />
<br />
== Excluding scenery objects ==<br />
<br />
== Flattening terrain around an airport ==<br />
<br />
In GE<br />
* Draw a polygon<br />
<br />
In FSX KML<br />
* Tag the polygon with the '''Airport_Backgrounds_Flatten_MaskClassMap_ExcludeAutoGen'''<br />
* Set the elevation of the polygon to the elevation of the runway. You can do this by clicking the '''Vertices''' tab and then clicking the '''Edit''' button. Then click the '''Set Elevation''' button and enter the elevation of the runway.<br />
