      I tried the surgical approach to exclusions for roads, creating nearly 400 small pieces of exclusion zone, only to get an error about scenery far beyond the airport boundary. So it's back to the approach of 3 large exclusion zones, but this time only excluding road networks.

      Brand-new work from scratch after encountering numerous problems trying to update older work. Since the 2018 release of the most recent scenery, the Wayne County Airport Authority has undertaken a program of dramatic changes to the real-world KYIP. Three runways present in 2018 no longer exist; one that remains has lost ~1500 feet and no longer crosses anything; and a good chunk of the taxiway network is new, with more taxiway construction to come. This new October 2024 KYIP scenery reflects all of those changes, and is partially future-proof through the inclusion of a drawn but hidden piece of taxiway known to be coming by 2026. While this scenery is complete in terms of flight and taxi operations, I will continue to work on smaller details of lesser importance such as buildings adjacent to ramps and trickle those updates as appropriate.

      Second attempt after removing /lib/airport/ground/terrain polygons. Elements of a 2018 scenery package which still exist at the real airport have been retained, but this is 80-85% new work which reflects the many changes that have occurred since then. This package is accurate as of its September 2024 completion date. There are rumors of further taxiway construction to take place in 2025 and 2026, but I am refraining from including any of that at this time.
