XSG-2647

Hi,
Maybe you can correct it yourself and upload the result on the scenery gateway with WED? It would be a nice contribution. The manual provided on this website is very well done, and there are many tutorial videos available on youtube as well. I think that would be the fastest way to have any correction you can think about done.

PS : I'm just a random user, contributing on the gateway.

The problem is not the airport itself, but the mesh under it. I think it could be updated and fixed so "rwys follow terrain" option can work correctly.

Exactly. You can't fix that with WED. Either you set a boundary around the airport, and then the flattening option will work. Or you check "always flatten" when you select the name of the airport in the right column of WED (1.5.1r1). This way you don't need to flatten every airport to have this on appear as you wish.

I know. But all versions of VIDP on the gateway are full of taxiway errors and I have to fix all of them. WED 1.6b1 says to reverse some taxiways...i do it and then it say to reverse them again...in practice I have to redesign the airport from zero.
Better to fix the mesh once and for all.

The ONLY WAY to fix the problem with this airport is to MANUALLY ADD 1302 flatten=1 option in the XP11 default apt.dat.
Trying to edit the airport in WED 1.6b1 (using the APPROVED gateway airport) reports too many problems with taxiways positioning (i do not really understand this kind of problems) and in WED 1.51 reports an error importing the airport itself, so there is no way to fix it with WED, unless redo all the airport from zero.

Please flatten the default airport so in future updates the airport will be usable and not full of bumps, OR fix the mesh itself OR give te possibility to flatten ALL airports in XP11 (worse solution).
Thanks

If WED 1.6 is giving incorrect validation errors, please file a bug on the WED bug report page. We would like to have as much info as possible to look into it.

You can close this report I think...
