CIFP Data Incorrect for KBAM

Closed

Scenery bug report

Trying to fix the scenery for runway number changes per the bug report. See my comment, the gateway is refusing my upload for the runway numbers. Apparently the "CIFP" data (whatever that is) is out of date. I will upload when this is fixed.

    CIFP data for this runway is correct.
    The scenery is wrong, the runway needs to be moved in order to be correct.

    This is incorrect. The runway numbers have changed due to the magnetic variation having changed. Please see the attached which clearly shows the runways are perfectly aligned with the satellite imagery which Wed-O-Maker applied. I was not involved in setting the coordinates of the overlays.

    The runway numbers shouldn't pose a problem - even if they are outdated, X-Plane can guess the right runway as long as it is in the right location. This seems to be the case here, so the runway number being outdated has actually no adverse effect in X-Plane. You will be able to submit the new runway numbers when we update the runway data server-side (first cycle of 2019 probably).

    My issue is not being able to upload to the scenery gateway to correct the original problem XSG-6616 Done . The upload process reports a server-side validation error and prohibits it. It seems I need to wait for 2019-1 cycle then?

    I pushed a manual change for you. Try in a few minutes.

    A belated thanks for this. I sort of lost interest in scenery development for a while.
