Looks like the tower is on a different tile. This _was_ working. In main.cxx the call to get the FDM's elevation in the main loop isn't working. For some reason it is now referencing the scenery center for the view (the published scenerycenter) instead of the tile center that is stored in the FGLocation instance for the FDM's location.
Maybe someone knows why this would be broken now. If I get a minute I'll take a look. Best, Jim "Curtis L.
