11.36r1 and 11.36r2 (and 11.34) Downtown Wichita, KS (main airport KICT) now shows as all suburban houses with only a few high rise apartment buildings. The are NO high rise office type building ANYWHERE in the area. Earlier versions used to show a reasonable depiction of the downtown areas.

The height and size of buildings in XPlane is determined from OSM data - and where absent, with an algorithm just estimating them based on landclass and street density (basically trying to figure out where “downtown” is). Therefore the building height may be correct in one area, but completely off in another. Hopefully the next XPlane version will have more accurate information avaiblable to determine building size/height.
