Yeah, no problem - I'll be doing a few, so I'll bundle them all up and send them in when they're reasonably accurate - the pan at EGXG is roughly the right shape, but way out at the moment. > FlightGear and X-Plane users will eventually benefit.

Yes it's mine - based on a pic I took of the tower at Church Fenton - it should do nicely as a generic RAF control tower, although could do with some more windows - as could the hangar. > I completely, utterly and absolutely abdicate all responsibility there - > TaxiDraw doesn't output anything about the runways :-) heh :-) I know - it suffered from the same problem when I ran genapts before adding the taxiways - if anyone has any ideas what could have caused it I'd love to hear them. > OK, I agree with you on this one and I've changed it.

OK - maybe it was just the width field it died on - I just edited the lot to match another line in runways.dat - I'll give the new version a try. > I've also implemented a taxiway properties dialog so that heading, length, Ah, that should be very handy - lights down the middle of extremely wide sections just look wrong. -- Jon Stockill [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
